This Kasto is a used horizontal band saw — sometimes referred to as a metal cutting band saw or simply a bandsaw machine — designed for precise, straight cutting of metal bar stock, structural sections, and similar workpieces. Kasto is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing industrial sawing and storage systems, supplying metalworking shops, steel service centres, and production facilities worldwide. This particular machine is a fully automatic CNC-controlled model, meaning cutting cycles, feed rates, and positioning can be programmed and repeated with minimal operator intervention, making it well suited to production environments requiring consistent, high-volume cutting.
The machine offers a round cutting capacity of 360 mm in diameter and a square cutting capacity of 360 × 360 mm, with a depth of throat and maximum workpiece height both rated at 360 mm. These figures indicate a generous working envelope capable of handling substantial solid or hollow sections. The table feed is hydraulic, providing smooth, controlled descent of the saw bow under cutting load, which contributes to consistent cut quality and extended blade life compared to gravity or manual feed arrangements.
The blade speed is variable across a wide range of 14 to 123 m/min, allowing the operator to match the cutting speed to the specific material — slower speeds for harder alloy steels and faster speeds for softer non-ferrous metals. The band saw blade itself measures 5,334 × 38 × 1.3 mm. The machine requires a power supply of 10 kW. This unit is currently located in Belgium.
