The K36AS Was Built for Shops That Can't Afford to Stop
Kalamazoo Industries has been making metal cutting equipment in Michigan since 1960. The K36AS 36" abrasive dry saw is what happens when 60-plus years of shop feedback gets welded into one machine — enough power for heavy structural cuts, controls an operator can learn in an afternoon, and a frame built to take daily production abuse.
75 HP That Doesn't Flinch on Heavy Stock
The 75 HP, 3-PH, 480V motor was sized for the worst material you'll throw at it — solid bar stock, thick-wall pipe, heavy structural shapes. It cuts clean and keeps up with production volume without bogging down mid-pass.
Cantilever Frame — Your Hands Stay Clear
The cantilever chop saw design keeps the frame out of the work zone entirely. Loading long stock, repositioning a fixture, feeding parts by hand — none of it requires working around the machine. That matters when you're running high volume.
Air/Oil Down-Feed for a Square Cut Every Time
Sloppy down-feed control is where cut quality falls apart. The air/oil down-feed system on the K36AS keeps the wheel moving at a consistent, controllable rate — no surging, no chatter, no angled cuts you have to go back and fix.
Dial in Feed Speed While the Saw Is Running
The flow control valve lets an operator adjust feed rate on the fly as material changes. Switching from thin-wall tube to solid bar? You're not stopping the machine or hunting for a wrench — just turn the valve and keep going.
24V Push-Button Controls — Simple, Safe, Fast
Low-voltage 24V push-button motor start/stop keeps things simple for the operator and safer on the floor. No complicated panel, no unnecessary steps. Start it, cut, stop it.
Wobble Kills Accuracy. The 1.75" Arbor Doesn't Wobble.
The heavy 1.75" spindle arbor locks the 36" abrasive wheel firm under a full cutting load. Deflection is what causes inconsistent cuts — the overbuilt arbor is there specifically to eliminate it, piece after piece, hour after hour.
Drops Into a Robotic Cell Without a Fight
The K36AS was designed with automation in mind from the start. The controls interface cleanly with robotic production cells, and the saw's consistent, repeatable performance is exactly what automated lines need to stay on schedule.
Built Heavy Because Production Work Is Hard
This isn't a saw that needs to be coddled. Every structural component is built to handle the repetitive stress of daily production cutting. It stays true over years of hard use — that's the whole point.
Made in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Backed by People You Can Call.
Kalamazoo Industries has been manufacturing right here in Michigan since 1960. The K36AS comes with a one-year parts warranty and U.S.-based support — not a foreign call center, not a ticket queue. Actual people who know the machine.
Top Uses for the Kalamazoo K36AS Abrasive Dry Saw Arm Assembly
Kalamazoo Industries has been building metal cutting equipment since 1960 — and the K36AS shows why shops keep coming back. It is a large abrasive cutoff saw with a 75HP motor, cantilever arm, and 24V push-button controls. Need a 36 inch abrasive dry saw that works as hard as your crew? This is it.

1High-Volume Structural Steel Cutting
I-beams, channels, solid bar stock — the K36AS cuts them all without complaint. It is a proven saw for cutting steel in high-volume shops. The 75HP motor and 1.75-inch spindle arbor just keep going.
-
2Robotic Production Cell Integration
Building a robotic production cell? The K36AS is ready for it. The 24V push-button controls tie directly into PLC systems. No custom wiring. No extra engineering. Just drop it in and run.
-
3Precise Controlled Down-Feed Cutting
Cut too fast and you burn through wheels. Cut too slow and you fall behind. The air and oil down-feed controls let you dial in the right speed for each job. The flow control valve makes the adjustment easy.
-
4Heavy Wall Tube and Pipe Cutting
Heavy wall tube and pipe will bog down a smaller saw fast. The K36AS does not have that problem. This 36 inch abrasive dry saw keeps wheel speed steady under load and delivers a clean, square cut every time.
-
5Fabrication Shop Production Cutting
On a busy fab floor, the saw cannot be the bottleneck. The K36AS runs on 3-phase 480V power, cuts dry, and starts up with the push of a button. It is the kind of metal cutting equipment that gets out of your way and lets you work.
-
6Flat Bar and Plate Stock Parting
Set your down-feed speed once and run all day. This 36 inch abrasive dry saw cuts flat bar and plate stock to length without losing its place. Part after part, the cut stays right where you set it.
-
7Aerospace and Defense Material Processing
Aerospace and defense work does not forgive a sloppy cut. The K36AS holds a steady feed rate and a stable spindle from the first piece to the last. It is metal cutting equipment built to meet tight specs — every shift, every time.
