Behringer HBP303A Auto Dual-Column Saw | NC Control | 11.8" x 11.8" | S/N 495160

1995 Behringer HBP303A Automatic Twin-Column Bandsaw

High-Production NC | 11.8" x 11.8" Capacity | Dual-Post Rigidity

"German Engineering for High-Volume Precision Cutting"

Available for acquisition is the Behringer HBP303A, a world-class automatic horizontal bandsaw designed for shops that prioritize squareness, speed, and long-term reliability. Unlike common "pivot-style" saws, the HBP303A features a dual-column, parallel downfeed design. This ensures that the saw frame remains perfectly rigid throughout the entire cut, eliminating blade deflection and delivering exceptionally straight cuts in heavy solids, tool steels, and large bundles.

This 1995 model is built on a massive 5,600 lb cast iron base, providing the vibration-dampening mass required for high-speed production. With its full-cycle automatic shuttle feed, this machine is ready for "lights-out" operation in any high-production metal service center or fabrication shop.
