Bianco 370 Flagship Twin Column Semi Automatic - Industrial Grade
The Bianco 370 SA DV is a semi automatic twin-column bandsaw built for precision cutting of medium-sized structural materials. With its vertical descent design on double columns, you get exceptional stability and accuracy when cutting solids, profiles, and structural sections up to 300mm capacity.
This machine bridges the gap between manual pivot saws and full production automation. The twin column structure (DV stands for Double Vertical) means the saw bow descends vertically on ball bearing linear guides rather than swinging on a pivot point. This rigid design virtually eliminates vibration, giving you straighter cuts and extended blade life, particularly when working with solid bars or bundled materials.
You get hydraulic control for both the vice and the bow movement, with an automatic fast approach system controlled by a feeler pin. The machine handles the clamping, cutting, and return cycle automatically once you press the start button, allowing you to focus on material handling and setup. With mitre cutting capability up to 60° to the right, this saw is equally at home in structural steel workshops, general engineering facilities, and fabrication shops producing heating and ventilation components.
Applications
- Structural Steel Cutting: Cutting RSJs, channels, and I-beams up to 300mm with consistent square cuts
- Bundle Cutting: Processing multiple tubes or bars simultaneously with the rigid twin-column vertical descent (requires optional bundle clamping fixture)
- Solid Bar Stock: Machining solid mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium billets in machine shops
- Heating and Ventilation Work: Precise cutting of support frames, ducting components, and pipework
- Angle Cutting: Creating mitred frames and structural assemblies with cuts up to 60°
Key Features & Benefits
- Twin Column Stability: Vertical descent on two columns with ball bearing linear guides provides far greater rigidity than pivot-type saws, resulting in straighter cuts and minimal blade deflection
- Semi Automatic Operation: Hydraulic control handles vice clamping, bow descent, and return automatically, freeing you to prepare the next workpiece
- Feeler Pin Fast Approach: The bow rapidly descends until the feeler pin contacts your material, then automatically switches to controlled cutting feed, saving valuable cycle time
- Two-Speed Cutting: Variable blade speed of 40 or 80 m/min allows you to optimise cutting parameters for different materials, from mild steel to stainless
- 60° Mitre Capacity: Bow rotates up to 60 degrees to the right for versatile angle cutting without repositioning material
- Hardened Gear Drive: Worm reduction gearbox with hardened and ground gears ensures quiet operation and long service life
- Built-In Length Stop: Adjustable graduated length stop from 0 to 500mm for repeatable cuts

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the advantage of the twincolumn design over a standard pivot bandsaw?
The twin-column (Double Vertical) design supports the saw bow on two vertical columns with ball bearing linear guides, rather than swinging on a single pivot point. This creates significantly greater rigidity, which virtually eliminates vibration during cutting. For you, this means straighter cuts with better surface finish and extended blade life, particularly when cutting solid materials or bundled sections where deflection is a common problem with pivot-style machines.
Does this machine require compressed air to operate?
No, the Bianco 370 SA DV operates entirely on electrical power and its own self-contained hydraulic system. The hydraulic unit controls both the vice clamping and the bow movement. You do not need a pneumatic air supply, which simplifies installation and reduces ongoing running costs.
Can I cut stainless steel and other hard materials with this saw?
Yes, the 1.5 kW motor and two-speed blade system (40/80 m/min) make it suitable for cutting harder materials including stainless steel. Use the lower 40 m/min speed setting for stainless and harder alloys, paired with a quality cobalt or carbide-tipped blade. Ensure adequate coolant flow for best results and blade life.
How does the automatic cycle work?
Once you set your material length using the graduated stop, you press the dual safety start buttons. The hydraulic vice clamps automatically, the blade motor starts, and the bow rapidly descends until the feeler pin detects the material height. The saw then automatically switches to controlled cutting feed. When the cut completes, the blade stops, coolant shuts off, the bow returns to the top position, and the vice can unlock if you have selected automatic vice opening.
