Semi Automatic Double Column Bandsaws
Product Description
Semi Automatic Double Column Bandsaws Overview
Bandsaws are selected by material, section, cut angle, capacity, blade, feed control, clamping, and production volume. Available configurations and capacities vary by model and project. Confirm the final specification against your material, part geometry, production target, utilities, safety requirements, and installation conditions.
Product Details
Semi-automatic horizontal band sawing machines with liner guides are ideal for cutting materials with variable cut rates. Our machines perform the cutting hydraulically. After the cut is completed, the upper frame automatically raises to the cutting height. For the next cut, the material is manually fed to the stop, and the cut is repeated. 1,2m/47″ roller feeding table and band saw blade x1 are standard on these models.
What to Confirm Before Requesting a Quote
- Material and section shape.
- Maximum cutting capacity.
- Straight or miter-cut range.
- Single-piece or bundle cutting.
- Required cut length and tolerance.
- Feed, blade, coolant, chip, conveyor, and automation needs.
Workflow and Integration Considerations
Coordinate stock loading, measuring, clamping, cutting, unloading, sorting, and downstream drilling or welding. Final machine selection should be confirmed against current drawings, capacity tables, application tests, utilities, safety requirements, installation conditions, training needs, and service availability.

Semi-Automatic Double Column Bandsaws (GFTY-C Series)
Engineered for precision and reliability, the Gator FabTech GFTY-C Series of semi-automatic horizontal bandsaws offers a robust solution for cutting materials at variable rates.
The heavy-duty double-column design provides superior frame rigidity, ensuring stable, accurate cuts. This design is supported by precision linear guides, which guarantee a smooth, perpendicular sawing motion for maximum accuracy and extended blade life.
The semi-automatic operation streamlines your workflow:
- The operator manually feeds the material to the stop.
- The cut is initiated, and the machine performs a precise, hydraulically-controlled downfeed.
- After the cut is completed, the upper frame automatically raises to the cutting height, ready for the next piece.
What Are the Standard & Optional Features?
Standard Features (Included with all GFTY-C Models)
- Precision Linear Guides: Ensures accurate, straight cuts.
- Hydraulic Downfeed: Provides controlled, variable cutting rates.
- Semi-Automatic Frame Return: The saw head automatically raises after the cut.
- 1.2m (47″) Roller Feeding Table: Included for easier material handling.
- Standard Band Saw Blade: One (1) high-quality band saw blade is included.
Optional Features
- Split Vise (SV Models): Upgrade to our *-SV models, which feature a Split Vise. This advanced hydraulic vise clamps the material on both sides of the blade, providing superior support and minimizing burrs on the cut-off piece.
What Are the Key Applications?
The GFTY-C Series is ideal for:
- General fabrication shops
- Structural steel cutting (See: Structural Steel Lines)
- High-volume production environments
- Cutting bundles or large solids
