MEP Shark 512SXI Evo Semi-Automatic Metal Bandsaw

Capacity – 280 x 220mm

Manufactured in Italy, the MEP Shark 512 SXI Evo is a hydraulic Semi-Automatic metal bandsaw built in a cast iron construction to cut from 60° right to 60° left with two modes of operation; Semi-Automatic and Cycle Down Up.

Semi-Automatic mode – The operator programs top and bottom position and presses the start button. The vice closes, cut commences hydraulically. After the cut the blade stops, vice opens, and bow returns to the programmed top of stroke position.

Cycle Down Up mode – The saw stops at the bottom of stroke without releasing the material until you press unclamp.

As well as programming top and bottom of the stroke, the centralised control panel provides all information required by the operator, including alarms, diagnostics, pieces cut, cutting time and blade tension. The hydraulic system is the latest generation in terms of power efficiency, switching off when not in use for greater energy savings.
