Ried/I. From 10 to 12 October, the Wintersteiger headquarters in Ried turned into an international competence center for innovative thin-cutting technology. Customers and interested parties from across Europe, the USA and New Zealand accepted the invitation to the exciting thin-cutting days.

Focus: Band Saws - Machines and Tools

From 10 - 12 October 2011, our head office at Ried im Innkreis will host an eventful scene of innovative thin-cutting technology. In our showroom, our experts will present the world of inventive and modular band saws along with the matching tools.

We implement customized process solutions worldwide under the irrevocable principle of reliability. Our business is more than just automation and integration; it includes special solutions and complete production lines as well. In addition, there are individual capacity solutions from a single machine to a complete line - from planning to implementation.

The positive response to our extensive Banso product range is further enhanced by a valuable reinforcement of our team. Since 1 April 2011, Reinhard Rachbauer is responsible for selling Banso band-saw blades in Austria, Germany and Switzerland.

Even the most reliable machines can develop a malfunction. It is then that quality, safety and the strength of a reliable partner count most. With the new WINTERSTEIGER remote service hook-up, you are only seconds away from our Technical Customer Service. An online connection to your machine can be quickly set up for fault detection, diagnosis, maintenance, data analysis or optimization.

WINTERSTEIGER's Easy Saw management software offers an ideal solution to manage your saws and at the same time optimizes your tool and set-up costs. Among other things, the special software stands out by virtue of its extremely user-friendly interface that even users without any specific knowledge of computers can operate with ease after brief initial training. Tools are read in using a barcode or alternatively may be entered from a numeric keypad. It is also possible, due to the integrated language generator, to add a new national language quite simply and straightforwardly!

The costs for wood - be it valuable hardwoods or fast-growing woods from reforestation - have increased continuously in recent years. It is unlikely from the present point of view that this trend will be reversed in the long term. The easiest way to even out the rise in price of wood as a raw material and thus to maximize the margins achievable is to reduce waste during subsequent processing. WINTERSTEIGER offers the appropriate range of products for this: Process solutions for high-quality thin-cutting.

In addition to new and established products in the thin-cutting frame saw and band saw sector, there was also a presentation of two bandsaw blades with patents pending.

Wintersteiger is known all over the world for its thin cutting frame saws and band saws. While we have been distributing all of our other products for many years in the US market, the Banso blades where only available in Europe until now. Our band saw blades are manufactured to the highest quality standards in the most modern German production facility from special German steel with the optimum combination of hardness, toughness and flexibility. The hardness of the tooth tips results in a long service life even when used on hard materials, whilst the flexibility and special tooth shape counteract reversed bending fatigue as well as the associated risk of breaking.  Banso premium saw blades enjoy a very good reputation among the mobile saw mill manufacturers in Europe but we carry many different sizes for all sorts of applications.  We also supply stellite blades on special request!  The blades are available in coils or welded from our warehouse in Salt Lake City, UT.
