HEM Model V130HM Vertical Double Miter Bandsaw Can be seen under power in IL. 20" x 24" capacity, 45 degrees L & R These HEM Vertical Band Saws are time proven band saw designs for cutting materials up to 45 degrees, both left and right. Capacities for these vertical band saw work horses range from (18-25″) wide to (20-36″) high. HEM band saws are well known for their reliability and accuracy. A HEM Vertical Band Saw will give years of accurate band sawing life A. Motor & gearbox are encased in the upper head of the saw away from the coolant and chip area. This engineering philosophy sets us apart from our competitors as, as the life of these components are significantly increased by this protection. B. HEM vertical band saws use only the highest quality standard components such as Lincoln Electric variable speed motors, Borg Warner Morse gearboxes and Allen Bradley electrics. C. The perpendicular guide arm provides solid support to the back of the blade, resulting in less vibration and increased blade life. It is fully adjustable to the height of the material. D. Flat carbide guides provide solid support to each side of the vertical band saw blade, increasing the stability of the band saw blade through the material. Band Saw Blade Guides are ground and relieved towards the twist of the blade to make the transition into the perpendicular position easy on the blade. E. HEM Vertical Band Saw Vises are engineered for versatility and ease of operation, and come standard with infinitely variable clamping pressure. Stops are set off the front of the band saw vise plate, preventing the possibility of cutting off your vises. F. Because we put the motor & gearbox on top of the band saw, we have to counterbalance the head with dead weight. This makes our band saw head heavier than the competitors, resulting in less vibration and increased blade life. Innovation has been tied to HE&M Saw since its founding in 1964 by Gerald Harris in his garage in Livermore, California. Harris had worked his way through engineering school and tool instrument training, gaining knowledge of various types of machinery during the post-World War II industrial boom. Due to the growth of the company Harris decided to move to Pryor, Oklahoma in 1976 where we have continued to advance and flourish. HE&M Saw currently uses more than 250,000 square feet in our facilities.
