Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a horizontal and vertical saw?
A horizontal saw lowers the saw blade assembly onto the stationary workpiece — ideal for cutting bars and profiles to size in a repeatable manner. A vertical saw (like a bench sawmill) has the blade moving vertically and the workpiece is guided manually: suitable for shaped cuts and curves.
What speed should I use for stainless steel with the Bernardo Horizontal Bandsaw?
For AISI 304 stainless steel, use the lowest available speed (20–30 m/min) with active coolant if available. Higher speeds cause overheating and rapid blade wear. For stainless steel over 50 mm in diameter, also reduce the descent force of the saw blade assembly.
Are replacement blades available?
Yes. Original Bernardo bi-metal blades for the Bernardo Horizontal Bandsaw are available with 3–5 business day shipping. Available in different tooth configurations for various materials: steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, cast iron.
Does the saw include a cooling system?
It depends on the version. Some Bernardo versions include an integrated coolant pump (typically indicated in the name or technical table). For versions without cooling, manual cutting oil is recommended for stainless steel and hard materials. Customer support in Italian available.
Is assistance and spare parts available in Italian?
