Established in 1976, Cosen Saws has become a global leader in industrial band saw manufacturing, offering over 140 models in horizontal, vertical, and miter-cutting configurations. Their machines are available in manual, semi-automatic, and fully automatic forms, catering to a wide range of cutting needs. With cutting capacities ranging from 200 mm to 2200 mm, Cosen's band saws are designed to handle materials such as steel, titanium, chromium, and silicon, serving industries including construction, automotive, aerospace, and wind power generation. Notably, Cosen was recognized as the No. 1 Sawing Equipment Brand by U.S. Metal Center News in 2015, 2022, 2023, and 2024. With a reputation for great value for money, they have spent more than 27 years maximizing efficiency and quality in every step of design, engineering and manufacturing to assure customers of long-lasting performance. In addition to utilizing internationally recognised components such as Siemens of German, Telemecanique of France and NOK seals of Japan. Cosen have also earned ISO-9001 standards as well as CE designation and EMC to assure customers around the globe of absolute quality and reliability.

The Cosen C-520NC CE bandsaw is an advanced NC bandsaw designed for high-volume and flexible metal cutting, and it has become a standard choice across the world market. Engineered for continuous, stable, and fully automatic production, the C420NC combines a durable mechanical structure with a robust control system suited to facilities requiring predictable output. Its automatic cycle remains stable even during long operating hours, allowing it to function effectively as a production-line saw. The machine performs automatic feeding, length measurement, and repeated cutting cycles, and its high-rigidity saw bow reduces vibration during demanding cuts. Accurate feeding and clamping ensure consistent cut lengths. User friendly programmable control and a modern new look with partial clear guarding. The Smart NC-100 technology is programmable up to 100 different jobs including quantity and length of cut with Automatic Multiple Indexing & Automatic Kerf Compensation. Cutting information such as blade speed, downfeed speed, blade life and error message is clearly displayed for ease of use. The C520NC is available with safety configurations tailored to regional standards, including a fully enclosed safety guard that meets CE regulations to satisfy both user expectations and local safety requirements. Its reputation for high precision and stable cutting performance comes from key design features such as a reinforced saw bow, upgraded roller and guide systems, now incorporating a three-roller arrangement, an improved D100 chip-removal system, and a height encoder that helps maintain steady blade tracking. These elements ensure that the machine delivers reliable accuracy and a smooth cut finish even during extended cutting sessions.
