For heavy-duty cutting applications, Steelmax Cermet-tipped saw blades offer superior wear and heat resistance for long cutting life. These blades feature a super-thin kerf for fast, efficient cutting and laser-cut stabilizer slots that reduce noise and vibration. Steelmax’s proprietary blade geometry, incorporating wide and shallow tooth pockets, combined with its Triple Chip Grind, provide speed and durability for clean, burr-free cuts in even the hardest alloys.

Multiple rounds of testing, prototyping, and optimization with professionals in the field led Simonds Saw to develop four new bi-metal bandsaw blades that are perform across various functions. The new blades were designed with the specialized depth to meet all metal cutting applications, including production cutting, structural steel and tough exotic alloys.

The Kalamazoo Industries model K44E 44-inch enclosed wet abrasive metallurgical saw, with a 75-hp motor, was custom fabricated to meet special requirements for exact cutting of superalloys. Inside the saw’s 10-foot-tall enclosure, the saw head rides on a vertical column instead of the conventional hinge or pivot-style saw. This provides a more stable cut for greater accuracy and repeatability. Flood cooling helps to ensure dimensional accuracy.
