The BS-20A Automatic Bandsaw From Baileigh Overview
The Baileigh BS-20A is a heavy-duty automatic horizontal bandsaw designed for high-volume production environments, featuring a powerful hydraulic system that automatically clamps, cuts, and feeds material bundles. This industrial-grade saw delivers exceptional precision with cutting capacities up to 13" round and 13" x 18" rectangular stock at 90°.
Built for demanding production environments, the BS-20A transforms metal cutting operations with its fully automatic operation system. The machine features a robust 5 HP motor that drives an industrial-grade hydraulic system, enabling continuous cutting cycles without manual intervention. The touchscreen programmer interface makes operation intuitive, allowing operators to switch seamlessly between manual and automatic modes depending on production requirements.
The BS-20A stands out with its massive material handling capacity. The integrated infeed and outfeed tables can support up to 5,000 pounds of material, making it ideal for processing heavy bundles and long stock materials. The electro-welded steel framework minimizes vibrations during cutting operations, ensuring consistent accuracy even during extended production runs.
For maximum versatility, the saw offers variable blade speeds from 90 to 256 FPM, allowing operators to optimize cutting performance for different materials. The 2-speed blade descent system further enhances productivity by reducing cycle times while maintaining cut quality.
