There are not many tools that can be used to accurately cut metals. However cutting a metal using a metal bandsaw is an art. This is because it requires prior knowledge and good experience. You have to have knowledge of its operation in order to work successfully with a metal bandsaw. It all depends on what you want to purchase your metal bandsaw for.You can get one for your work around the house or a larger one for industrial workshops. Basically there are two types of metal bandsaws that can be found in the market. These two kinds are the horizontal metal bandsaw and the vertical metal bandsaw. Of the two the horizontal metal bandsaw is the more popular one. If you are planning on cutting a piece of metal with a large cross-sectional area then you should consider going for the horizontal bandsaw as opposed to the vertical one. The vertical bandsaws can be applied if one is looking for a convenient way of cutting pieces of metal.

The Horizontal Metal Band Saw

The horizontal metal bandsaw works in a different way from the usual bandsaw. For a proper cutting, the piece of metal or work is first fastened on a flat surface. valve parts die casting The blade of the metal bandsaw is then brought down and through the work piece. This produces a good cut. It is different from the normal way in which the operator moves the work piece into the blade of the bandsaw. A characteristic of this metal bandsaw is that its blades are all in a continuous loop made of steel. This machine is usually supported and kept in place by a bandsaw table. It is also crucial that the machine be operated from a convenient working height.
The uses of the horizontal metal bandsaw vary. It is mostly used in large workshops and can be used for cutting through large size pieces of metal. It is not however recommended for small pieces. It has the capability of cutting through very thick pieces of metal. Again all this depends on the requirement of the users.

The Vertical Metal Band Saw

Compared to the horizontal metal bandsaw, the vertical metal bandsaw consumes less power. It usually works by a means of circular blade and it cuts continuously. The vertical metal bandsaw comes with precise and easy manual feed control. The vertical bandsaw comes in handy in cutting perfectly straight cuts. It can also be useful when the cut is quite complicated. It is vital that the user understands how this machine works. It has an optimal feed pressure, specific blade type and appropriate cutting speed.
The main disadvantage of using the vertical metal bandsaw is in its teeth and speed. It is difficult to choose the appropriate blade pitch and cutting speed. Mostly problems arise due to the exceeding of the minimum radius and at the same time the upper blade was not set properly.
In the manufacturing of bandsaws nowadays there has been some improvements especially in tooth geometries and tooth pitches.
