Medoc STL480 Industrial Floor Standing Meat Bandsaw

The Medoc STL480 Meat Bandsaw is a heavy-duty, industrial floor-standing meat cutting bandsaw designed for wholesale butchers, meat processors, abattoirs and large food manufacturing facilities requiring substantial cutting capacity.

Manufactured in Spain by Medoc, the STL480 combines robust 18/10 stainless steel construction with a powerful cutting system designed for demanding meat processing environments.

Featuring a 480mm maximum cutting height, 425mm cutting thickness and a 3500mm bandsaw blade, the STL480 offers increased cutting capacity compared with the smaller STL390 and STL430 models.

Unlike smaller table top bandsaws mounted onto separate pedestals, the Medoc STL480 is a purpose-built floor-standing machine, designed for professional meat processing operations.

Heavy-Duty Cutting Performance for Industrial Meat Processing

The Medoc STL480 provides generous cutting clearance, making it particularly suitable for processing larger meat joints, bone-in products and other demanding butchery applications.

With a 480mm cutting height and 425mm cutting thickness, the machine offers greater capacity than the STL430, providing additional flexibility when handling larger products.

The machine features a 3500mm bandsaw blade running on 450mm diameter stainless steel double-rimmed blade wheels.

A manufacturer-listed 5.5HP three-phase motor provides the power required for professional meat cutting applications.

An automatic blade tensioning system helps maintain correct blade tension during operation.

Available Cutting Table Configurations

The Medoc STL480 range is available with several cutting table arrangements to suit different processing requirements.

Fixed Table (STL480-F)

A stationary stainless steel cutting surface designed for applications where products are moved manually across the table.

Sliding Table (STL480-M)

A moving stainless steel table that supports products as they are guided through the cutting area. This configuration is particularly useful when handling larger meat joints that benefit from a moving support surface.

Inclined Table (STL480-B)

An inclined stainless steel cutting table designed for applications requiring an angled work surface.

Ramp Table (STL480-R)

A ramp-style table arrangement available for specialist meat processing requirements.

The most suitable table configuration will depend on the products being processed, operator preferences and production requirements.

Stainless Steel Double-Rimmed Blade Wheels

The Medoc STL480 is supplied with 450mm stainless steel double-rimmed blade wheels as standard.

These robust wheels form part of the machine's heavy-duty cutting system and are designed for demanding professional meat processing environments.

Unlike smaller Medoc ST table top models, where stainless steel blade wheels may be available as an optional upgrade, the STL480 includes stainless steel double-rimmed wheels as standard equipment.

Hygienic Stainless Steel Construction

Manufactured from durable 18/10 stainless steel, the Medoc STL480 is designed for food processing environments where hygiene and straightforward cleaning are essential.

The machine features a one-piece body construction, removable blade cleaners and blade wheel scrapers.

The blade cleaners can be removed without tools, simplifying routine cleaning and maintenance.

Its stainless steel construction and accessible cleaning components help operators maintain the machine as part of their established hygiene procedures.

Operator Safety Features

The Medoc STL480 incorporates several safety features designed for professional meat processing environments, including:

Automatic blade braking system designed to stop the blade within four seconds.

Emergency stop button.

Safety interlock when opening the machine door.

No-volt release protection.

IP65-rated controls.

All operators should receive appropriate training and follow the manufacturer's operating and safety instructions.

STL430 vs STL480 – What's the Difference?

Both the STL430 and STL480 are purpose-built floor-standing bandsaws designed for professional meat processing applications.

The STL430 provides a 420mm cutting height and 375mm cutting thickness, making it suitable for larger commercial meat cutting requirements.

The STL480 offers a larger 480mm cutting height and 425mm cutting thickness, providing additional clearance for businesses processing larger meat products.

The STL480 also features larger 450mm blade wheels, a longer 3500mm bandsaw blade and a higher-powered manufacturer-listed motor.

Both machines feature stainless steel double-rimmed blade wheels, automatic blade tensioning and robust stainless steel construction.

Ideal for Large-Scale Meat Processing

The Medoc STL480 Industrial Meat Bandsaw is suitable for wholesale butchers, meat processors, abattoirs and larger food production facilities requiring a substantial meat cutting machine.
