Commercial Bonesaw machine

A commercial bone saw machine, also known as a meat band saw, is a powerful tool used in butcher shops, restaurants, supermarkets, and meat processing facilities. Its primary function is to cut through large, tough pieces of meat, including those with bones, to create smaller, more manageable portions.

Key Features and Characteristics:

• Construction: These machines are built for durability and hygiene. The body and components that come into contact with food are made of food-grade stainless steel or aluminum-magnesium alloy, which is resistant to corrosion and easy to clean.
• Blade: The cutting mechanism is a long, continuous band of sharp, toothed metal that rotates between two wheels. The blades are made from high-carbon or hardened stainless steel for durability and precision.
• Motor: Commercial bone saws are equipped with powerful motors (e.g., 550W to 3800W) that provide the necessary force to cut through tough materials like frozen meat and bone.
• Adjustable Cutting Thickness: A key feature is the ability to adjust the cutting thickness. A gauge plate or scale on the workbench allows the operator to set the desired slice thickness, ensuring consistent cuts.
• Types: There are two main types of commercial bone saw machines:
  • Vertical Bone Saws: These are the most common type. They stand upright, and the operator pushes the meat through the blade on a flat workbench. They are ideal for cutting large pieces of meat.
  • Horizontal Bone Saws: These are designed for smaller cuts and lie flat on a surface. They are less common in general butchery but are used for specific applications.
• Safety Features: Due to the inherent danger of a high-speed saw blade, safety is a top priority. Commercial bone saws include:
  • Safety Switches: An emergency stop button and an automatic shut-off that activates when the machine’s door or outer cover is opened.
  • Blade Guards: Guards and a meat pusher are used to keep the operator’s hands away from the moving blade.
