This Kasto PBA 460 AU is a used horizontal band saw — sometimes referred to as a metal-cutting band saw or simply a bandsaw — a type of machine designed to cut metal workpieces, including bar stock, billets, tubes, and profiles, with high precision and efficiency. Kasto is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing band saws, circular saws, and storage systems for metalworking and industrial applications, serving sectors such as steel distribution, engineering, and manufacturing.
Built in 1986 and located in Germany, this machine offers a cutting diameter of 460 mm. Its cutting capacity covers square sections up to 320 × 320 mm and flat sections up to 500 × 320 mm, making it suitable for a broad range of structural and solid material profiles. The saw band measures 5,334 × 41 × 1.3 mm, with a cutting width of 1.3 mm, and runs at variable cutting speeds between 16 and 80 m/min, allowing the operator to match the feed rate and speed to the material being cut.
The machine is equipped with a Minipos 807 control system. The feed length is 580 mm for single cuts, extending to 5,800 mm for multiple-cut (bundle or serial) operations, which significantly increases throughput when processing batches of material. Total power consumption is 8 kW, and the machine weighs approximately 3.5 tonnes. Overall dimensions are 2.7 m (length) × 2.95 m (width) × 2.15 m (height).
The listing includes a notable package of accessories: two roller tracks measuring 4,150 mm and 2,150 mm in length respectively, a bundle clamping device for securing multiple workpieces simultaneously, a chip conveyor for automated swarf removal, and a coolant system to maintain blade life and cut quality during operation.
