With GENERO®, WIKUS sets new standards in wood cutting band saw blades and presents a versatile tool for sawing logs on mobile and stationary sawmills.
Thanks to the ultra-modern and innovative production, GENERO® guarantees outstanding product features and an impressive service life suitable for a wide range of applications. The high level of process reliability helps to reduce set-up times and the costs per cut. The hardened high-speed steel (HSS) used for the teeth of the band saw blade makes this product resistant to foreign bodies such as stones and metal on or in the wood.
The high-precision setting ensures a perfectly straight cutting channel.
The tooth base, which is rounded using a coordinated blasting process, ensures high endurance properties even with high torsion of the band or higher cutting speeds.
