- Diamond Band Saw BS230 XY
The BS230 XY is a compact, powerful laboratory saw with a standing saw unit. It offers a clearance of 200 x 200 mm (H x W), a cutting length of 200 mm (X-axis) and a footprint of 690 x 780 mm at a height of 1850 mm.
The workpiece is guided on a precise cross table with servo motor drive – both for the sawing process and for setting the slice thickness. The integrated display shows the sawing forces in real time, which are automatically used to regulate the feed speed. This corresponds to the speed at which the tool removes the material during sawing.
The BS230 XY is equipped as standard with a closed safety cabin and an integrated measuring unit for feed force control.
The machine enables dry cuts, but can also be operated with cooling as an option – depending on the requirements and material.

Further technical details on the BS230 XY diamond saw
The diamond saw blade of the BS230 XY runs endlessly over two rollers: It is driven by the upper roller and tensioned pneumatically. The tension can be precisely regulated by adjusting the air pressure on the pressure reducer. Two backlash-free guide roller units, which guide the band close to the processing point, ensure maximum cutting accuracy.
The drive is provided by a frequency-controlled three-phase motor, which enables a continuously adjustable belt speed of 200 to 2000 m/min.
The X and Y tables are equipped with ball screws and can be moved programmably by servomotors. Both travel distances and feed speeds are programmable; in addition, the tables can be positioned manually by pushbutton. They are controlled by a Mitsubishi PLC with touchscreen and menu-guided programming.
The machine is suitable for both dry cutting and operation with cooling. For dry cutting, an extraction system can be connected via the connection piece provided. The stainless steel machine version also allows the use of pure water without additives for cooling.
The BS230 XY is equipped with a measuring unit for feed force measurement as standard. The force generated during the sawing process is displayed directly on the screen – this allows the feed rate and cutting speed to be optimally adjusted.
To protect against spray water, a closed spray protection cabin is part of the machine’s standard equipment.
