This Opus 550 TF is a used horizontal band saw — sometimes referred to as a horizontal bandsaw or metal-cutting band saw — a type of machine used to cut bar stock, profiles, tubes, and solid workpieces to length by drawing a continuous looped blade under controlled tension through the material. Horizontal band saws are a core tool in metalworking workshops, fabrication shops, and production environments where repeatable, accurate cutting of raw material is required.
The machine offers a table measuring 600 × 760 mm, providing a solid work surface for supporting and positioning material ahead of the cut. The depth of throat reaches 550 mm, indicating the maximum distance from the blade to the frame and therefore the effective cutting width available to the operator. The maximum workpiece height is 430 mm, defining the tallest section of material the saw can accommodate in a single pass.
Blade speed is variable across a range of 120 to 1,200 metres per minute, which allows the operator to select an appropriate cutting speed for different materials and cross-sections — slower speeds for harder or thicker stock, higher speeds for softer metals or lighter profiles. The continuous loop blade measures 4,700 mm in length and 27 mm in width. Motor power required is 4.2 kW.
The machine is located in Belgium and is offered in used condition.
