Versatile saws designed for the workshop

Four model variants are available: manual (P2.6), manual clamping with hydraulic downfeed (E2.6), hydraulically actuated clamping and downfeed (U2.6), and fully automatic (A2.6) with ballscrew-driven material feed, carbide blade guides and an optional chip conveyor.

The saws supersede six machine models in the KASTOpractical and KASTOfunctional series, compared with which they have higher power motors and greater band tension, allowing a 50% increase in cutting force. Feed rate is constant throughout, avoiding lost productivity due to the blade slowing towards the centre of the cut. Blade speed is infinitely variable from 20-120m/min, allowing a range of different materials to be processed cost-effectively.

KASTOmicut saws have a cutting range of 260mm for rounds and 310x260mm for flat stock. Mitre cuts are possible at continuously adjustable angles from -45 to 60°. A torsionally rigid, vibration-damped, cast iron frame provides support for the saw blade, ensuring top cutting quality, even in difficult-to-cut materials. Many different accessories are available including a rotary table to support the material.

Shortest cut length is 6mm, with a residual length of 15mm for manually cut pieces or 40mm in automatic operation, so users can make maximum use of their material. Cutting accuracy is 0.1mm per 100mm of height.
