A cutting tool that uses a continuous metal band with teeth to slice through various metal workpieces. Available in horizontal and vertical configurations, these machines are essential for cutting bar stock, structural steel, and pipes to rough lengths before further machining.
The Wonsten CNC metal band saw is
engineered for high-volume, continuous batch cutting of solid bars,
thick-walled tubes, and structural steel profiles. Utilizing a rigid
dual-column (twin-pillar) architecture, this automatic horizontal band saw
eliminates blade deflection and vibration, ensuring strict perpendicularity and
maximizing the lifespan of bi-metal or carbide-tipped blades.
Designed to operate in harsh industrial
environments—from extreme-cold heavy machinery plants to high-output steel
service centers—the machine relies on a programmable logic controller (PLC) and
servo-driven ball screw feeding to execute precise, repetitive cuts with
minimal operator intervention.
Core Mechanical & Control Systems
We build these saws with heavy cast-iron
bases and oversized linear guideways to handle the high feed rates required for
cutting tough alloys and tool steels.

Why Wonsten Band Saws Deliver Lower Cost
Per Cut
In high-volume sawing, the cost of
replacement blades quickly exceeds the cost of the machine. The Wonsten CNC
system is actively designed to reduce blade consumption. The automatic
hydraulic feed rate valve monitors cutting resistance; if the blade encounters
a hard spot in the material, the feed rate automatically slows down, preventing
tooth stripping.
Standard equipment includes a motorized
wire brush for continuous chip removal from the blade gullets, and a
high-volume flood coolant system that flushes the cutting zone to prevent heat
buildup.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can this CNC band saw cut multiple pipes
simultaneously (bundle cutting)?
Yes. For processing bundles of pipes or
small solid bars, the machine can be equipped with an optional top hydraulic
clamping cylinder. This applies downward pressure to secure the bundle,
preventing internal pipes from spinning and stripping the blade teeth.
How is the cutting length programmed?
The operator inputs the desired length and
the total number of pieces into the PLC touchscreen. The servo-driven feeding
carriage will automatically index the material, execute the cut, and repeat the
cycle until the batch count is reached. The machine automatically stops when
the material is depleted.
What maintenance is required for the
dual-column system?
The dual-column guideways are low
maintenance. Operators simply need to ensure the automatic lubrication system
is filled with the correct way oil, which periodically distributes precise
amounts of oil to the columns and ball screws to prevent wear.
