Powermatic ArmorGlide Bandsaws

Picture

At Powermatic, we believe that ambition is the fuel that drives progress. Every product we engineer is born out of the same idea: How can we empower woodworkers to do more? In shops across the world, craftsmen are continually pushing the limits of their creativity, and in turn, challenging us to provide the best tools for the job. When we reimagined our line of bandsaws, we not only set out to meet their ambitions, but to exceed them. Larger projects and larger workpieces call for more power, more resaw capacity and more cast iron. This bandsaw also features the legendary quality, precision and attention to detail that has been helping woodworkers expand their ambition for more than ninety years

PM1500T, 15-Inch Woodworking Bandsaw with ArmorGlide, 3 HP, 1Ph 230V

The Powermatic PM1500T Bandsaw features our ArmorGlide Technology work table and packs many of the features traditionally only found on larger bandsaws, and brings them to a new, category-redefining, 15" size. ArmorGlide is a low-friction, industrial-grade coating on the work surface that is rust resistant, requires less maintenance, and gives you more control. As with every product Powermatic builds, the PM1500T pushes the limits of design, innovation, and durability. It truly is The Gold Standard.

Features:

ArmorGlide Technology gives you a low-friction, industrial-grade coating on the work surface that is rust resistant, requires less maintenance, and gives you more control
Miter gauge is built with robust materials and many positive stops for the most commonly used angles
Blade tension release with electrical interlock prevents the bandsaw from starting when the blade is detensioned
Accu-Fence has complete adjustability for aligning to blade and squaring to table
Fence features positive locking cam with pressure adjustment
Heavy duty upper wheel support and tracking mechanism for smooth operation
High-end blade guides with toolless adjustment provides stability, increasing cut accuracy
Oversized side plate can be used in the horizontal or vertical position
Solid cast iron upper and lower wheels create the momentum needed for heavy resaw
