Sawing Machine

There are mainly two kinds of sawing machines in the market: band sawing machine and circular sawing machine. Unlike band sawing machine, circular sawing machine utilizes circular tools to conduct sawing procedure rather than sawing bands to achieve the cutting mechanism, which leads to other machining features that is different from band sawing mechanism. 

Conventionally, a circular saw is a powered saw that uses a toothed or abrasive disc set or blade to cut different materials by a rotary motion spinning around an arbor. Similarly, a hole saw and ring saw also use a rotary motion but are different from a circular saw. To be precise, circular sawing machines may also be loosely used for the blade itself.

Circular saws were invented in the late 18th century and were in common use in sawmills in the United States by the middle of the 19th century due to the growth of industry over agricultural sectors in the states then.

Type of Sawing Machine

Band Sawing Machine

In the market, a band sawing machine is also called as bandsaw, which is a powered sawing machine with a long and sharp blades consisting of a continuous band of toothed metal which is stretched between wheels to cut targeted work pieces or materials. Band saws are used particularly in the sectors of metalworking, woodworking, and lumbering due to its fast and effective nature, but can also be used to cut a variety of other materials for other industrial sectors.

Circular Sawing Machine

Unlike band sawing machine, circular sawing machine utilizes circular tools to conduct sawing procedure rather than sawing bands to achieve the cutting mechanism, which leads to other machining features that is different from band sawing mechanism. Conventionally, a circular saw is a powered saw that uses a toothed or abrasive disc set or blade to cut different materials by a rotary motion spinning around an arbor. Similarly, a hole saw and ring saw also use a rotary motion but are different from a circular saw.

Hack Sawing Machine

A hacksaw is a fine-toothed saw, which was originally and mainly made for cutting metal materials and products. Similarly, the equivalent saw for cutting wood is usually called bow saw. A powered hacksaw is called hack sawing machine, which is a type of hacksaw that is powered either by its own electric motor or connected to a stationary engine. Most hack sawing machines are stationary machines but some portable models still exist for specific demands.

Horizontal Band Sawing Machine

In the band sawing market, a horizontal band sawing machine is also called as horizontal bandsaw, which is a powered sawing machine with a long and sharp blades consisting of a continuous band of toothed metal which is stretched between wheels to cut targeted work pieces or materials in a horizontal arrangement. Band saws are used particularly in the sectors of metalworking, woodworking, and lumbering due to its fast and effective nature, but can also be used to cut a variety of other materials for other industrial sectors.

Vertical Band Sawing Machine

In the band sawing market, a vertical band sawing machine is also called as vertical bandsaw, which is a powered sawing machine with a long and sharp blades consisting of a continuous band of toothed metal which is stretched between wheels to cut targeted work pieces or materials in a vertical arrangement. Band saws are used particularly in the sectors of metalworking, woodworking, and lumbering due to its fast and effective nature, but can also be used to cut a variety of other materials for other industrial sectors.
