The Clausing Kalamazoo KC18AX is a powerful automatic horizontal bandsaw designed for maximum efficiency in production cutting environments. Capable of handling large materials up to 18 inches round or 18 inches by 18 inches rectangular, this machine minimizes operator interaction through its fully automatic cycle and hydraulic controls. The saw features an inverter-controlled, infinitely variable speed system, allowing precise blade speed adjustment from 66 to 330 SFPM to optimize cutting across various material types. Power is delivered by a robust 7-5 Hp drive motor.

Operation is centralized through a 5-7 inch HMI touch screen, which provides crucial data like blade speed, blade life, and self-diagnostics error codes. Automation features include a hydraulic shuttle vise assembly for repeatable material indexing, automatic hydraulic blade tensioning, and an automatic height setting feature for faster setup. The machine is built for durability with cast iron vises featuring replaceable hardened wear plates, and it includes carbide blade guides for extended blade life. Safety and reliability are enhanced by a blade slippage or breakage detection system and an automatic shutoff feature. The KC18AX includes a standard coolant system and is backed by a 2-year limited warranty, making it a reliable solution for rigorous production demands.
