Bernardo Vertical Bandsaw VMS 610
The Bernardo VMS 610 is a professional vertical bandsaw designed for complex machining and high-precision cutting of metal. Thanks to the solid cast iron table, which can be tilted 15° in all directions, and the enlarged surface, it ensures maximum stability and safety. It features two variable speed ranges (25–85 m/min and 120–500 m/min), settable via a digital LED display, to adapt to different materials and thicknesses. The machine comes complete with a blade welder with annealing device, integrated shear and grinding wheel, which allow blades to be regenerated directly in the workshop. Included accessories include an air gun, chip brush, halogen lighting, and a grooved table. With a cutting capacity of up to 610 mm in width and 340 mm in height, a 1.5 kW motor, and a weight of 700 kg, it is the ideal choice for metalworking shops and workshops that require reliability, robustness, and high operational capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a vertical and horizontal bandsaw?
A vertical saw (like the Bernardo vertical bandsaw VM) has the blade running vertically and the workpiece is guided manually (like a bench saw). It is suitable for shaped cuts, curves, and irregular shapes on workpieces placed on the work surface. A horizontal saw has the blade descending onto a fixed workpiece: ideal for automatically or semi-automatically cutting bars and profiles to size.
Can the Bernardo vertical bandsaw VM cut curves and shapes?
Yes, within the limits of the minimum bending radius allowed by the blade width. For tight curves, narrower blades (6–8 mm) are used; for straight cuts, wider blades (13–20 mm) are used. Check the minimum radius in the supplied manual.
Are replacement blades available?
Yes. Original Bernardo replacement blades for the Bernardo vertical bandsaw VM are available with 3–5 business days shipping. Specify length, width, and tooth pitch when ordering.
Does the saw include a rip fence for straight cuts?
Many VMS versions include a rip fence and miter gauge. Check the standard equipment of the specific Bernardo vertical bandsaw VM with Krollit. Customer assistance in Italian available.
How much space is needed in the workshop?
The Bernardo vertical bandsaw VM with a working height of 25 mm and a table width of 300x400 mm requires adequate clear space on all sides for workpiece handling. Recommended minimum clear space: 1 m on each side of the machine.
