HYD-MECH Model H-26/44 Dual Column Semi-Automatic Horizontal Bandsaw, Capacity 26" x 44" Polish immigrant and engineer, Stan Jasinski, founded HYDMECH in 1978 in Woodstock, Ontario. Originally, HYDMECH was an engineering consulting firm specializing in hydraulic and forestry equipment. But frustrated with searching for a saw to suit his needs, Stan exercised his engineering expertise to build his own mitering saw suddenly changing the company’s focus in 1980. Stan’s innovative vision created a better mitering saw with a superior performance that grabbed the attention of colleagues and machine dealers in the area. Since then, HYDMECH’s drive to manufacture quality sawing technology has never wavered. We pioneer innovations such as swing-head versatility on our scissors-style saws and consistently deliver the widest range of saws to a vast range of industries. The industries we serve include aerospace, automotive, steel service centers, metal fabrications shops, racing, and more.
