Bernardo MSB 460 H Semi-Automatic Metal Bandsaw

Bernardo MSB 460 H Semi-Automatic Metal Bandsaw

The Bernardo MSB 460 H is a professional semi-automatic bandsaw with increased cutting capacity, designed for intensive work in carpentry and mechanical workshops. The automatic arm lift with adjustable height optimizes work cycles, making it ideal even for series production. The massive structure and torsion-free frame, along with the blade guide with bearings and carbide inserts, ensure stability and precise cuts. Thanks to the variable cutting speed from 20 to 100 m/min and the 4.0 kW motor, it effortlessly handles large tubes, profiles, and solid materials. The hydraulic vice, inclinable up to 45°, and the integrated roller for long workpieces increase versatility. Equipped with safety features such as automatic shutdown and blade breakage control, it represents a powerful and reliable machine for heavy industrial work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "semi-automatic" mean for this bandsaw?

The semi-automatic version (MSB with H suffix) has motorized blade descent with adjustable cutting speed, and automatic return to the high position at the end of the cut. The operator only needs to position the workpiece and start the cycle — they do not have to support the blade during cutting. Compared to manual versions, it reduces fatigue and ensures constant cutting force throughout the stroke.

What is the maximum cutting capacity at 45°?

The capacity at 45° is lower than the nominal capacity at 90° (Ø 460 mm). Typically 65–70% of the nominal 90° value. Refer to the angled capacity table in the manual supplied with the Bernardo Semi-Automatic Metal Bandsaw.

100 m/min cutting speed: is it sufficient for stainless steel?

For AISI 304 stainless steel, it is recommended to use the lowest available speed (20–30 m/min) with active coolant. For S235 structural steel, the entire range of available speeds can be used. For aluminum, higher speeds are used.

Are replacement blades available?

Yes. Original Bernardo bimetallic blades for the Bernardo Semi-Automatic Metal Bandsaw are available with 3–5 business days shipping.

How much space is needed in the workshop?

For handling bars, free space at least equal to the maximum length of the workpiece is needed in front of and behind the machine. Coordinate with Krollit for the complete dimensions and weight of the Bernardo Semi-Automatic Metal Bandsaw.
