Used & Second Hand Bandsaw Machines for Sale

Used bandsaws provide raw material blanking for machine shops and fabrication yards, slicing bar stock, pipe, and billet to length. Corel Machinery stocks industrial horizontal models, including automatic units from builders like Amada, Forte, and Cosen, featuring hydraulic clamping and bar-feed shuttles that prep metal accurately before turning or milling.

Industrial bandsaws cut stock to initial length using a continuous looped blade riding across two balanced wheels. In metalworking, horizontal pivot and dual-column saws are the standard layout. The workpiece clamps stationary in a hydraulic or manual vice while the saw bow descends through the stock. Key specifications separate these machines: round and rectangular cutting capacity, blade dimensions (width and thickness govern beam stiffness during heavy cuts), and cut-off feed automation. Manual gravity-drop units require an operator to set every cut, whereas automatic shuttle-vice saws feed bar stock repeatedly using stroke counters or digital indexers, running complete billets into repeatable blanks without operator intervention.

Inspect the blade guide arms first. Carbide guide pads and roller bearings experience constant friction; worn pads allow the blade to wander, producing out-of-square cuts across large bar sections. Check the cast-iron band wheels for flanged shoulder wear or crowning damage that causes blades to slip off track. On automatic models, cycle the bar-feed shuttle carriage. Check for play in the lead screws, rack drives, and hydraulic feed cylinders that dictate cut-length repeatability. Look over the bow pivot pin or dual-column guide pillars for play, and inspect the hydraulic downfeed valve. A malfunctioning flow control valve causes the bow to drop too rapidly, stripping blade teeth on solid alloy steels.

The current selection features horizontal cut-off saws with capacities ranging from 250 mm to over 400 mm. Builders include Amada, Cosen, DoAll, Forte, Mega, Addison, Fendo, and TJ Utting. Units include standard gravity-assisted and manual feed models alongside fully automatic hydraulic shuttle-feed machines designed for high-volume billet preparation. Machines can be inspected at the Nashik yard before purchase.
