Peerless 1216 Accumatic Automatic Horizontal Bandsaw | 12" x 16" | Hydraulic Shuttle

Peerless 1216 Accumatic Horizontal Bandsaw

Fully Automatic | 12" x 16" Capacity | Heavy-Duty Shuttle Feed

"The Industrial Standard for High-Volume, Precision Production"

Available for immediate acquisition is the Peerless 1216 Accumatic, a rugged horizontal bandsaw engineered for continuous, automatic cutting operations. Known for its massive cast-iron construction and reliable hydraulic logic, the Accumatic series is designed to handle heavy solids, bundles, and structural shapes with repeatable accuracy.

This machine features a full-stroke hydraulic shuttle indexer, allowing for "lights-out" production. Whether you are running small batches or large-scale production, the 1216 provides the rigidity needed to extend blade life and ensure square cuts in the toughest materials.

Key Features & Performance Advantages

• Hydraulic Shuttle Indexing: The precision shuttle vise automatically feeds material for repeatable cut lengths, significantly reducing operator labor and material handling time.
• Heavy-Duty Cast Arm: The oversized, vibration-dampening saw head ensures the blade remains stable at high feed rates, resulting in superior surface finishes.
• Hydraulic Blade Tensioning: Maintains constant, optimal tension on the 1-1/4" blade to prevent "wandering" in large cross-sections and minimize premature blade breakage.
• Variable Speed Drive: Quickly adjust blade SFPM (Surface Feet Per Minute) to match material hardness, from aluminum to stainless steel.
• Integrated Coolant System: High-flow pump and dual-nozzle delivery system keeps the blade cool and flushes chips effectively for high-speed cutting.
