"The Industrial Standard for High-Volume Production Cutting"

Available for sale is a 1994 HE&M H101A-1, an American-made powerhouse built for continuous production. Renowned for its massive cast head frame and rigid "scissor-type" pivot design, the H101 series is the go-to choice for steel service centers and heavy fabrication shops. This machine is designed to deliver square, accurate cuts in heavy solids, structural tubing, and exotic alloys.

This specific unit features a full-cycle automatic shuttle feed system, allowing for "set-it-and-forget-it" operation on long production runs. With a heavy 1.25" blade and a high-torque 5 HP motor, this saw provides the stability and power required to maximize blade life and cut precision.
