The Kalamazoo K7B is a compact table top saw that handles your cutoff work without tying up a CNC or bandsaw. Its 1 HP motor drives a 7″ abrasive wheel at 4,800 RPM, giving you fast, clean cuts on bar stock and raw material right at the bench.

What Makes the K7B a Smart Choice for Your Machine Shop:

  • Frees up your production machines – Use the K7B to rough-cut steel bars and round stock to length before they hit the lathe or mill, so your spindle time goes toward making chips instead of cutting blanks
  • Handles secondary cutoff work – Perfect for trimming slugs, test pieces, and drop ends without pulling an operator off a production run
  • Cuts hose and tubing fast – Shops that maintain their own hydraulic systems count on the K7B for cutting hydraulic hoses and steel braided lines to exact lengths between jobs
  • Fits where you need it – This table top saw sits on a workbench near your material rack or staging area and keeps your shop floor open for machines that need the space
  • Runs shift after shift – Cast iron base and sealed ball bearings stand up to daily use with minimal maintenance and no babysitting
  • Ready to cut out of the box – Plugs into any standard 115V outlet with no special wiring, no three-phase hookup, and no electrician
  • Made in the USA – Manufactured in Kalamazoo, Michigan, with every replacement part kept in stock and available for the life of the machine

The K7B is great for any metal processing company that needs a dedicated cutoff station without spending production-machine money.

Machine shops run on efficiency, and the K7B keeps your cutoff work from becoming a bottleneck. This American-made table top saw gives you a dedicated station for sizing raw material, trimming test cuts, and prepping stock — all without pulling time away from your CNC machines, lathes, or mills.

Forging companies use the K7B to cut steel bars and round stock to rough length before heating and forming. Machine shops use it the same way — sizing bar stock at the bench so operators can load material and start cutting parts immediately. When hydraulic lines need replacing on your equipment, the K7B handles cutting hydraulic hoses and braided lines on the spot instead of waiting for outside service.

Common Machine Shop Applications:

  • Rough-cutting steel bars and round stock to length before machining
  • Trimming test pieces, first articles, and drop ends between production runs
  • Cutting mild steel pipe up to 2 inches for fixtures, jigs, and shop projects
  • Cutting hydraulic hoses and reinforced tubing for equipment maintenance
  • Sizing rebar, angle iron, and flat stock for welding and fabrication side jobs

Who Uses the K7B:

  • Machine shops that need a secondary cutoff station away from production equipment
  • Job shops handling short runs across a variety of material sizes
  • Forging companies prepping stock for heating and forming operations
  • Maintenance departments keeping CNC machines, presses, and shop equipment running
  • Tool and die shops cutting material for fixtures, gauges, and prototype work

The K7B is great for any metal processing company that wants fast, accurate cuts from a saw that fits on a bench and stays out of the way of production.
