Transform Your Workshop’s Efficiency with the Sterling STC CH NC Bandsaw
If precision, reliability, and efficiency are what you need, the Sterling STC CH NC Twin-Column Automatic Bandsaw is your ideal solution. A product of the renowned Sterling range, this fully-automatic machine is engineered to handle demanding metal-cutting tasks with ease. Its twin-column design ensures unparalleled stability, making it perfect for cutting solid materials, pipes, profiles, and steel beams.
The Sterling STC CH NC isn’t just a tool—it’s a game-changer for workshops that demand performance without compromise.
Why the Sterling STC CH NC Stands Out
Built for Durability
The robust twin-column construction provides superior rigidity, ensuring precision cuts across a wide variety of materials. Whether you’re cutting round, square, or rectangular sections, this bandsaw guarantees consistent performance, even during high-volume operations.
Advanced Automation
Featuring a Siemens PLC controller, this bandsaw takes automation to the next level. You can program up to 10 steps for automatic cutting—simply input the lengths and quantities, and the machine does the rest. This level of control means less operator intervention, faster production, and fewer errors.
Versatility at Its Core
With its ability to handle a wide range of materials and applications, the Sterling STC CH NC is versatile enough to be the mainstay of any fabrication shop, big or small.
Enhance Your Productivity
In a busy workshop, time is money. The automatic bow return on the Sterling STC CH NC reduces downtime between cuts, allowing for seamless transitions to the next task. Its variable blade speeds ensure optimal performance for both mild and stainless steels, adapting effortlessly to your needs.
The hydraulic gravity down-feed system provides precise control over cutting speed, matching the material being processed. This feature not only enhances accuracy but also prolongs blade life, reducing maintenance costs and boosting productivity.
The Importance of Cooling and Safety
Flood Coolant System
One of the standout features of the Sterling STC CH NC is its built-in flood coolant system. This system prevents overheating, reduces blade warping, and ensures clean cuts. By extending blade life and improving cut quality, the coolant system helps your workshop stay efficient and productive.
Safety First
Safety is a priority in any workshop, and the automatic stop function on this bandsaw provides peace of mind. Once the cut is complete, the blade automatically stops spinning, reducing the risk of accidents and ensuring safer interactions for your team.
