GATOR GFTO Series Fully Automatic Straight Cut Pivot Type Bandsaw

For fabrication shops that need to cut thousands of identical pieces, manual labour is the enemy. The Fully Automatic Straight Cut Pivot Series (GFTO Series) eliminates the bottleneck of manual measuring and feeding. By focusing strictly on 90° straight cuts, we have engineered a machine that is more rigid, more reliable, and easier to operate than complex mitre saws.

True Automation for the Real World

This isn’t just a saw; it’s an automated workcell.

• Programmable Logic: The user-friendly control panel allows operators to input exact lengths and piece counts. The machine executes the entire job autonomously, stopping only when the order is complete or the material runs out.
• Continuous Feeding: The integrated automatic roller feed system (standard 1.2m/47″) indexes material quickly between cuts, significantly reducing cycle times compared to semi-auto machines.

Rigid Pivot Design

While double-column saws are famous for their size, our heavy-duty Pivot (scissor-type) design offers exceptional rigidity for general-purpose cutting at a lower investment cost.

• Vibration Damping: The heavy-duty steel bow and cast-iron components absorb vibration, extending blade life and ensuring quieter operation.
• Hydraulic Control: Features hydraulic clamping and controlled downfeed rates, allowing you to fine-tune the cut pressure for everything from thin-walled tubing to solid stainless steel bars.

Standard Features for Daily Dependability

• Microspray or Flood Coolant: Keeps blades cool to prevent premature dulling.
• Blade Brushes: Automatically clean chips from the blade gullets, ensuring accurate cuts and preventing blade drift.
• Safety First: Automatic shut-off sensors detect blade breakage or stall, protecting both the machine and the material.
