The ARG 300 plus E gravitation band saw features a hollow closed-section cast-iron arm, bilateral mitre cutting capability and robust mechanical construction. With manual gravitation feed, adjustable uplift support and optional frequency-controlled speed, it delivers precise, durable and versatile performance for professional metalworking operations.
Manufactured by PILOUS, the ARG 300 plus E is a high-capacity gravitation band saw designed for continuous industrial use and professional metalworking workshops. It combines a modernized cast-iron arm structure, bilateral mitre flexibility and optimized mechanical performance within a manually controlled gravitation system.
Engineered for durability and precision, the ARG 300 plus E delivers reliable cutting accuracy across a wide range of materials while maintaining operational simplicity.
Overview
The cutting process follows a gravitation principle:
Manual arm uplift is supported by adjustable tension springs, allowing operators to set the optimal lifting force according to workpiece characteristics.
The vice system enhances versatility with continuous bilateral angle adjustment:
The rotating turntable moves together with the saw band, preventing blade contact with the vice loading surface during angular cuts.
The ARG 300 plus E elevates gravitation cutting with enhanced rigidity and angular flexibility.
Closed-section arm construction
The most advanced arm casting concept creates a hollow closed section along the entire load-bearing length. This ensures:
All electrical wiring and coolant lines are concealed within the arm, protecting them from damage and contamination.
Blade replacement and cleaning are simplified by a hinged rear cover that locks securely in the open position.
Mechanical durability
The robust framework consists of grey cast iron castings, guaranteeing effective vibration absorption.
Overdimensioned bearings, tensioning components and rotary elements extend overall machine lifespan in long-term industrial use.
Large-diameter running wheels and three-side hardened steel blade guides ensure precise band tracking and cutting consistency.
Drive and cutting optimization
The industrial electric motor with worm gearbox provides maintenance-free and quiet operation.
Standard two-speed configuration (40 / 80 m/min) supports material-based speed selection. The ARG 300 PLUS E.F. variant includes a frequency converter for continuous speed regulation between 15–90 m/min (2.2 kW motor), optimizing cutting conditions across various materials.
Cooling and operational control
The integrated cooling system includes a high-performance pump with independent flow regulation on both guiding heads.
Ergonomically positioned electrical and hydraulic controls ensure straightforward and safe operation.
The ARG 300 plus E is suitable for:
Its bilateral angular flexibility makes it particularly effective for complex structural assemblies.
If your operation requires:
The ARG 300 plus E provides a refined gravitation solution with enhanced performance and versatility.
Within ANATECO’s portfolio, this model positions as a premium manual gravitation bandsaw for professional environments demanding precision and structural strength.
Workpiece stop – Standard equipment
Simple stop for setting the required length of the material to be cut.
Frequency converter
Enables continuous blade speed regulation between 15–90 m/min. and thus setting the optimum cutting conditions for the given material.
Pressure device
Used to clamp the bundles of material to be cut. Ensures simple and reliable material clamping using a vertical contact pressure.
Halogen lamp LA
Provides good lighting of the workplace of the machine. An invaluable tool especially when the lighting at the workplace is insufficient.
Oil mist lubrication MM
Creates an oil mist that is sprayed onto the cutting edge. It replaces the use of a classic coolant, especially when cutting sections during which leakages may occur. Possibility of using organic oils.
Laser alignment LS
High-quality industrial laser projects the cutting line on the material to be cut. Makes the setting of the required material length simpler, faster and more accurate.
Workpiece stop 500 mm
Robust stop with a 500mm scale for setting the required length of the material to be cut.
Cleaning brush KDM
Steel cleaning brush, driven by driving wheel. Used to remove chips from the saw band behind the cut.
Saw band tension indicator CD
Ensures accurate tensioning of the saw band to a required value according to the pressure gauge and its control during the use of the machine. Optimum tensioning of the saw band is essential for its service life and cutting accuracy.
Auto-start descent of the arm
In standard machines, the control valve of the arm descent has to be shut after the arm uplift and by the next arm descent, the descent speed has to be set again. In this version, the control valve is additionally fitted with an electro-hydraulic valve, which remains after the arm uplift in the set position. After saw blade start, it is automatically released and the arm descents into the cut at a set speed. Thus, setting of the descent speed for each cut falls off. This significantly eliminates operator error and thus protects the saw blades, and increases also productivity of the machine. An ideal help when cutting material in larger series.
