FEATURES

The main features of 260 AUTO 4.0

DOUBLE MITER

Double Miter cut -45°/+60° in Semi-Automatic and -45°/+45° in Automatic mode. Manual frame rotation. Two tapered roller bearings in the head casting support ensure smooth, stable movement, independent of the material’s resting surface.

FEED SYSTEM

Rigid cast iron carriage mounted on trapezoidal stainless steel screw + thread nut . Precise feed for multiple cuts (±0.1 mm tolerance), driven by a stepper motor with integrated encoder for accurate cut length measurement.

GEAR PUMP

Patented Hydraulic system for a smooth adjustment of the bow feed and cutting pressure. At cycle start, the vise clamps hydraulically and the saw bow automatically descends. At the end of the cutting operation, the vise opens and the saw bow automatically returns to its initial upper position.

MAIN CONTROL PANEL

Ergonomic control panel with integrated 7” display, complete of USB port and LAN connection.

POTENTIOMETER

The start/end cutting points are memorized through a potentiometer mounted on the pivot point of the bow. The blade automatically returns to the preset position. 

BLADE SWITCH + END MATERIAL SWITCH

The proximity switch mounted on the front wheel automatically stops the cycle in case the blade breaks or slippers, while the switch mounted on the carriage stops the machine when the material ends during the automatic cycle.

PRACTICAL WORKING AREA

Large, easily removable tables offering a wide and ergonomic post-cut working surface. Length of 280 mm after the blade, the table provides optimal support for multiple cut pieces.  Once worn, the tables can be turned upside down, always providing a new working surface.

LED LIGHT

Power indicator LED which in the event of an emergency stop or end of material, turns into a flashing red light clearly visible from a distance, indicating cycle interruption.

CARIF SOFTWARE 4.0

User-Friendly Software to program/store unlimited cutting programs by name or part code. USB and LAN connection to transfer cutting programs/updates. Carif Software 4.0 for remote monitoring.

CHIPS TANK

Large chip tray complete with a perforated tank that allows coolant to pass through while retaining swarf. Easy to clean.

COOLANT SYSTEM

Coolant tank 50lt capacity + powerful coolant-pump with stainless steel protection.

MEASURING DEVICE 

Measuring hard stop L=500 mm with height regulation.

All CARIF models 260/320/450 are completely Hydraulic: closure of the vice, bow feed and pressure.

Closure of the vice, bow feed and pressure. The Carif hydraulic patented system has been designed with 2 commands: BOW FEED and CUTTING PRESSURE.
Thanks to this system the blade regularly descends, with a constant auto-regulation for every material type, section and thickness.

Increased productivity: No operator during cutting cycle, Ø stops.

Longer blade life: Slows down the bow descent without straining the blade when worn out.

Always straight cut: Auto-regulation of blade-stress based on material hardness and section.

Fast cutting operations: Fully hydraulic cycle. More efficiency.

Easy to use: Practical, simple and ergonomic operations.

Why choose a Carif band saw

The heavy-duty structure ensures outstanding cutting performance on all types of materials and section sizes. All cutting capacities and technical data specified are referred to solid materials: whether cutting standard steels or high-strength materials, a CARIF band saw gives the same reliability and cutting efficiency.

Cutting perpendicularity is tested and guaranteed within decimal tolerances, with a maximum deviation of 0.2 mm every 100 mm.

Below you can find a few cutting examples. All cutting videos can be watched in the dedicated video page.

Sawing test on 260 AUTO 4.0

Performed with a M42 blade and coolant 8%

Solid material: Stainless steel AISI304

Dimension: 180mm (7”)

Blade: M42 TPI 3/4

Note: To achieve optimal cutting performance and maintain straightness, it is essential to properly adjust the carbide inserts on the blade guides, to set the right cutting parameters Bow feed and cutting pressure. Additionally, the blade quality and, last but not least, the correct TPI configuration play a crucial role.

FAQ

What is the maximum length achievable with a single feed stroke?

In Automatic Mode, for safety reasons, the maximum carriage feed stroke is 320 mm per single advance.

For cut lengths over L= 320 mm, the control system automatically calculates the required number of feed cycles, taking the blade thickness into account.

Example: For a cut length of 500 mm, the first feed stroke will be 320 mm, while the second stroke will be 180 mm plus the blade thickness, ensuring the correct final dimension.

The maximum length tolerance for each feed stroke is ±0.1 mm. 

Note: If the machine is frequently used for long cut lengths (>500 mm), we recommend operating in Semi-Automatic mode , combining a length stop after the saw such as the CARIF MS or CARIF DMS.

What is the minimum leftover piece in Automatic?

In Automatic Mode, the minimum bar remnant length is 200 mm.

However, thanks to the Single Cut function and the measuring stop supplied with the machine, the operator can cut the remaining material down to the last millimetre without leaving Automatic Mode. The piece counter automatically records all cuts performed using this function.

 

Why choose the 260 AUTO instead of the 320 Automatic?

The 260 AUTO is the ideal solution for users who frequently alternate between Semi-Automatic and Automatic operation, especially when mitre cutting capability is required.

It is particularly well suited for fabrication shops and workshops handling both occasional jobs and small-to-medium production batches with repetitive cuts (typically from 10 pieces upwards), while maintaining a compact footprint and excellent operational flexibility.

Compared to the 320 Automatic, the 260 AUTO is often the preferred choice when versatility and quick changeover between manual and automatic operations are more important than maximum cutting capacity.

The 260 AUTO features an electric motor-driven carriage feed system, whereas the 320 Automatic uses a hydraulic feed cylinder, allowing the automatic feeding of solid material up to a maximum section of 320 × 230 mm.

For this reason, the 320 Automatic is particularly indicated for heavier-duty applications and for the frequent cutting of solid materials with diameters exceeding 100 mm, thanks to the higher feeding force provided by its hydraulic drive system.
