Description
ABC Hansen offers a range of bench saws (or log saws), with a blade diameter of 600mm, and in various drive options.
Drive types available are: Electric single phase, electric three phase, petrol motor, and diesel motor.
The Grizzly 600 bench saw is able make cuts of up to 250mm per cut – enabling the saw to saw logs of up to 280mm using 2 cuts. The Grizzly 600 has a swinging bench, which minimises the wear on the blade, by ensuring that the log is always placed square with the blade, and also it minimises the effort required to saw the log, allowing for longer operation hours and less fatigue for the operators.
The saw also adheres to CE safety regulations on the operation – making it a very safe saw, compared to other options available in the market – at a lower cost.
Safety features include:
1) Belt driven system – compared to a direct drive. This allows belts to slip in the case of the blade getting stuck, which protects the motor, and also protects the operator – so that the blade doesn’t force through what is blocking it – and thus prevents the blade from getting damaged or shattering
2) The blade is totally enclosed during when not operating, and the push table has a gravity fall back that causes the default position of the push table to be in the backward position – with the blade enclosed.
3) The handles for the push table are securely behind the push table – protecting hands from the blade and blowback.
4) The blade has a swinging top cover, that keeps the top of the blade enclosed, as it exits the enclosure, reducing chances of loose clothing etc getting caught in the blade, and also stopping blowback from the blade towards the operator.
All of these combined, make the Grizzly bench saw a safe machine to operate – for something that is a pretty dangerous machine to start with.
