The PM1500 packs many of the features traditionally only found on larger bandsaws, and brings them to a new, category-redefining, 15’’ size.
As with every product Powermatic builds, the PM1500 pushes the limits of design, innovation, and durability. It truly is The Gold Standard.
- 14 ½” of throat and 14” of resaw provide more capacity than a traditional 14” bandsaw
- Sturdy cast iron table and trunnion assembly offers maximum rigidity for heavy work pieces
- Exclusive Powermatic T-Square style Accu-Fence maximizes accuracy and safety
- The Accu-Fence has complete adjustability for aligning to blade and squaring to table
- Fence features positive locking cam with pressure adjustment
- Oversized side plate can be used in the horizontal or vertical position
- Foot brake with magnetic switch interrupt provides user with hands free stopping option
- Blade tension release with electrical interlock prevents the bandsaw from starting when the blade is de-tensioned or released (patent pending)
- Heavy duty upper wheel support and tracking mechanism for smooth operation
- Solid cast iron upper and lower wheels create the momentum needed for heavy resaw
- High end blade guides with tool less adjustment provide stability, increasing cut accuracy
- Four sided blade guard for optimum protection
- Integrated foot brake stops a coasting blade
- Magnetic Switch protects the motor from harm due to potential electrical supply issues
