The Kaltenbach KBS 851 Dgnc is a horizontal band saw — sometimes referred to as a metal cutting band saw — designed for precise, high-volume sawing of steel profiles and structural sections. Kaltenbach is a well-established German manufacturer specialising in sawing, drilling, and processing machinery for the steel construction, metal fabrication, and trade industries, and their horizontal band saws are widely used where accurate, repeatable cuts in structural steel are required.
This machine was manufactured in 2000 and is offered in used condition from a location in Germany. Its core cutting capacity at 90° is 850 x 500 mm, and a miter tilting capability of -60° to the left and -50° to the right gives it considerable versatility for angled cuts across a wide range of structural profiles. The saw supports blade types M2, M42, and M51, accommodating different material hardnesses and cutting applications, and the cutting speed is continuously adjustable across a range of 20 to 120 m/min, allowing the operator to match speed to the material being processed.
Power is provided by a hydraulic motor rated at 3 kW, with an in-line motor of 0.29 kW. The machine is equipped with automatic cutting pressure regulation, which maintains consistent feed force throughout the cut, and electronic saw blade slip monitoring, which helps preserve cutting accuracy and blade life. Both features contribute to reliable, repeatable performance in demanding production environments.
The control system runs Proficut software, which provides precision management of the sawing process. On the infeed side, the machine is fitted with roller tables that include a rack for the measuring carriage, and the length measurement system is capable of handling profiles up to 21 m in length — a significant capacity that suits operations working with long structural sections. Roller tables for the outfeed area are listed as optional. An integrated chip tray is included, streamlining chip management and keeping the working area clear during operation.
