Medoc STL600 Industrial Three-Pulley Meat Bandsaw

The Medoc STL600 Meat Bandsaw is a heavy-duty, industrial floor-standing meat and bone cutting bandsaw designed for large meat processing facilities, abattoirs, wholesale butchers and fish processors.

Manufactured in Spain by Medoc, the STL600 features a specialist three-pulley cutting system that provides an exceptionally wide cutting area while maintaining a robust, stable machine construction.

With a 550mm maximum cutting height, 700mm cutting width and 3715mm bandsaw blade, the STL600 is particularly suitable for handling large meat joints, bone-in products, frozen meat blocks and substantial fish products.

Its robust 18/10 stainless steel construction, automatic blade tensioning and stainless steel double-rimmed pulleys make it a practical choice for demanding industrial food processing environments.

Large Cutting Capacity for Industrial Meat Processing

One of the main advantages of the Medoc STL600 is its exceptionally generous cutting area.

With a 550mm cutting height and 700mm cutting width, the STL600 provides considerably more working clearance than smaller floor-standing meat bandsaws.

This makes it particularly suitable for businesses processing large primal cuts, substantial bone-in meat products, frozen meat blocks and large fish.

The increased cutting width provides additional space for handling wider products, reducing the limitations associated with smaller conventional bandsaws.

Three-Pulley Cutting System

Unlike conventional two-wheel meat bandsaws, the Medoc STL600 features a three-pulley cutting system.

This arrangement allows the machine to provide a particularly wide cutting area without requiring an excessively large blade wheel diameter.

The STL600 uses a 3715mm x 16mm bandsaw blade, running on 300mm stainless steel double-rimmed pulleys.

The three-pulley design is particularly beneficial for processing wide products, making the machine suitable for specialist meat and fish cutting applications.

Fixed or Roller Table Configurations

The Medoc STL600 can be supplied with different cutting table arrangements depending on the products being processed.

Fixed Stainless Steel Table

The fixed-table configuration provides a robust, stationary cutting surface suitable for general industrial meat and fish cutting applications.

Roller Table

A roller-table configuration is also available, helping operators move and position larger, heavier products across the cutting surface.

This can be particularly useful when handling large meat joints, frozen blocks and substantial fish products that would otherwise be difficult to manoeuvre.

The most suitable table configuration will depend on product size, weight and the cutting operations being carried out.

Heavy-Duty Cutting Performance

The Medoc STL600 is equipped with a manufacturer-listed 5.5HP three-phase motor, providing the power required for demanding industrial cutting applications.

Its 3715mm bandsaw blade and large cutting area make it suitable for processing substantial meat and fish products.

The machine features an automatic blade tensioning system, helping maintain correct blade tension during operation.

Stainless steel double-rimmed pulleys are supplied as standard, forming part of the machine's robust cutting system.

Stainless Steel Construction and Hygienic Design

Manufactured from durable 18/10 stainless steel, the Medoc STL600 is designed for professional food processing environments where hygiene and straightforward cleaning are essential.

The machine features removable blade cleaners that can be detached 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.

The STL600 is also designed to allow cleaning using pressurised water, in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Operator Safety Features

The Medoc STL600 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.
• IP69-rated operating controls.
• Automatic blade tensioning system.

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

Medoc STL480 vs STL600 – What's the Difference?

Both the Medoc STL480 and STL600 are heavy-duty stainless steel floor-standing meat bandsaws designed for professional meat processing applications.

However, there are some important differences in cutting capacity and machine design.

The Medoc STL480 is a conventional two-wheel industrial meat bandsaw featuring a 480mm cutting height and 425mm cutting thickness. It is particularly suitable for wholesale butchers and meat processors requiring a substantial cutting area for larger meat joints and bone-in products.

The Medoc STL600 uses a specialist three-pulley cutting system, providing an even larger 550mm cutting height and 700mm cutting width.

This increased clearance makes the STL600 particularly suitable for processing exceptionally wide meat products, frozen blocks and large fish.

The STL480 uses a 3500mm bandsaw blade, compared with the STL600's 3715mm blade.

Both machines have a manufacturer-listed 5.5HP motor configuration, although the STL600's three-pulley design provides a significantly wider cutting area.

The STL600 is also a substantially heavier machine, weighing approximately 460kg, compared with around 235–250kg for the STL480, depending on table configuration.

Which model should you choose?

The STL480 is a strong choice for professional meat processors requiring generous cutting capacity in a conventional industrial bandsaw.

The STL600 is better suited to operations handling exceptionally large or wide meat and fish products, particularly where the additional cutting width and optional roller table provide practical handling advantages.

Ideal for Large-Scale Meat and Fish Processing

The Medoc STL600 Industrial Meat Bandsaw is suitable for abattoirs, wholesale meat processors, fish processing facilities and larger food production operations requiring substantial cutting capacity.

Whether you're replacing an existing industrial bandsaw, increasing your processing capability or looking for a specialist machine for large meat and fish products, the STL600 combines generous cutting clearance with robust construction and practical safety features.
