What is "Bandsawing"?

Power bandsawing, often called band machining, uses a long endless band with many small teeth traveling over two or more wheels (one is a driven wheel, and the others are idlers) in one direction. The band, with only a portion exposed, produces a continuous and uniform cutting action with evenly distributed low, individual tooth loads. Bandsawing machines are available in a wide variety of types to suit many different applications.
