USED 1956 DOALL 16-2

1956 DoALL 16-2 Vertical Contour BandsawSerial No: 45-56779 | The Gold Standard of Precision Contour SawingOverviewThe DoAll 16-2 is the machine that defined the American tool-and-die shop. This 1956 model represents the "heavy casting" era, prized by machinists for its incredible rigidity and vibration-dampening properties. Engineered for precision contouring, this saw features a massive infinitely variable speed range, allowing it to transition seamlessly from low-torque tool steel cutting to high-speed non-ferrous work.Equipped with an integrated blade station, this machine allows you to cut, weld, and grind your own blades from bulk coil stock in minutes—saving on operational costs and eliminating downtime.Technical SpecificationsYear of Manufacture: 1956Throat Capacity: 16"Work Height: 12"Blade Speed: Variable 50 – 5,200 SFPM (High/Low Gear Ranges)Table Size: 24" x 24" Heavy-Duty Cast IronTable Tilt: 45° Right / 10° Left (plus 10° Forward/Back)Motor: 3 HP, 220V/440V, 3-PhaseBlade Width Capacity: 1/16" to 1"Machine Weight: Approx. 1,250 lbsKey Features & PerformanceInfinite Variable Speed: Dial in the exact SFPM required for your material. The mechanical variable-speed pulley system provides high torque even at the lowest settings.Integrated DBW-1A Blade Welder: Features a built-in butt welder, grinder, and shear. Ideal for making internal "pocket" cuts by threading the blade through a pilot hole and welding it back together.Job Selector Dial: Includes the original "cheat sheet" dial on the upper door, providing recommended speeds and feeds for over 50 different materials.Superior Accuracy: Built with a unitized, arc-welded steel frame and heavy-duty cast components to maintain alignment under high blade tension.
