Our DBS Service Department can assist you in:

• Band Saw repair

• Technical assistance
• Assessing trade-in values when purchasing a new machine through Detroit Band Saw

Band saw repair is a common request and can be costly for our customers. We try to keep your costs to a minimum, and keep your machines running smoothly.

Common band saws problems include:

• Power to machine but blade not running
• No power to machine
• Worn/broken/missing carbide guides
• Bad roller bearings
• Not cutting straight
• Worn drive/idler wheel
• Saw not working in automatic mode
• Issue with hydraulics—saw head not coming up/going down smoothly
