JET VBS-3612 36" Vertical Metal Bandsaw

Are you working through thick metal stock with a machine that struggles to keep up with your production pace?

What if your bandsaw could handle large fabrication pieces, hold a steady blade speed across the full cut, and be ready to weld a new blade right at the machine when you need it?

Meet the JET VBS-3612 36" Vertical Metal Bandsaw, a three-phase industrial bandsaw built for metalworking and fabrication shops that need consistent throughput and a wide range of cutting speeds.

With a 36-inch throat capacity, twin worktables, a two-speed transmission with variable speed control, and an onboard bi-metal blade welder, the VBS-3612 puts serious capability in a single, enclosed frame.

When you have a machine that handles blade changes, keeps cuts straight, and moves through large stock without hesitation, you can stay focused on the work instead of the equipment.

JET VBS-3612 for Heavy-Duty Metal Cutting and Fabrication

Three-Wheel System Extends Throat Capacity to 36 Inches

The VBS-3612 uses a three-wheel design to achieve a 36-inch throat capacity. This lets you feed wide workpieces through the machine without repositioning or working around a limited frame. For fabrication shops cutting large plate, structural stock, or oversized pieces, that capacity keeps production moving without interruption.

Two-Speed Transmission and Variable Speed Match Blade Speed to Material

A two-speed transmission combined with variable speed control gives you a blade speed range of 50 to 4,925 SFPM. You can dial in the right speed for different metals and blade types without swapping attachments or guessing. This range handles everything from slow cuts in harder alloys to faster cuts in softer stock, all from the same machine.

Onboard Blade Welder, Grinder, and Cutter Reduces Shop Downtime

The integrated bi-metal blade welder, grinder, and cutter lets you prepare and weld blades without leaving the machine. When a blade reaches the end of its life or you need a different width, you handle it at the saw. The blade tension indicator takes the guesswork out of setup so you know the blade is loaded correctly before you start cutting.

Enclosed Steel Frame and Twin Tables Support Large Production Work

The heavy-duty, fully enclosed steel frame keeps the drive components protected in a working shop environment. The twin worktables give you 23-5/8 x 27-1/2 inches and 17-3/4 x 27-1/2 inches of combined table surface, with a multi-tilting design for angled cuts. At 40 inches of table height and a 12-inch max height capacity, the machine is sized for serious production work.
