The Omcan 45559 Bandsaw
The Omcan BS-IT-1524 is a 1.2 HP (0.9 kW) European bandsaw manufactured by Trento in Italy. It is built for supermarkets, butcher shops, meat counters, and commercial kitchens that need to cut through thick meat, solid bones, frozen products, and fish on a daily basis. The 60-inch blade and 7.5" x 7.3" cutting capacity handle most bone-in primals and frozen blocks that butchers work with regularly, and the all-aluminum body keeps the total weight at 75.9 lb so it can be positioned on a sturdy prep table without permanent mounting hardware.
Professional-Grade Italian Construction with Food-Safe Materials
Trento builds this saw with decades of expertise in Italian food processing equipment. The body is lightweight all-aluminum, and the cutting plate is steel, combining durability with the kind of hygienic surface that commercial food safety standards require. High-grade food-safe metals throughout mean you can clean the saw thoroughly between different types of product without worrying about corrosion or contamination. The forged and hardened steel gears inside the drive train handle the stress of cutting through dense bone without wearing prematurely, and the lifetime-lubricated gear motor unit means you never have to open the housing to grease the internals.
Safety Microswitch and Intuitive Twist Control
A safety microswitch acts as a buffer to help prevent injuries during operation. The on/off control is an intuitive twist mechanism: clockwise turns the saw on, counterclockwise shuts it off. There is no fumbling with buttons during a busy cutting session. The saw draws 12.5 amps on a standard 120V / 60Hz / 1Ph circuit with a NEMA 5-15P plug, so it runs on a typical 15-amp outlet. Overall dimensions of 18.1" x 16.9" x 28.7" keep the footprint compact enough for a prep area that also needs room for a grinder or slicer alongside. The machine ships by freight on a pallet.
