Axminster AWSBS2 Bandsaw

Axminster AWSBS2 Bandsaw

The Axminster AWSBS2 two speed bandsaw comes complete with floor standing cabinet, enhanced rip fence and mitre fence. Fabricated from sheet steel with cast iron table and alloy wheels, the bandsaw has several features usually only found on bigger machines. The stiffness of the steel fabrication allows the blade tension to be much higher than most bandsaws of this size which helps to reduce blade vibration. The blade is well supported with ball bearing guides both above and below the table. Unusually in a bandsaw of this size the back edge of the blade runs on the face of the rear thrust bearings rather than the side. The cast iron table has a groove in which the mitre fence slides and is fitted with a rigidly clamped extruded aluminium rip fence. Both doors are fitted with micro switches so that if someone was tempted to open a door whilst the machine is in use then the motor will cut out.
