Automatic and Semi-Automatic Cold Saws

Scotchman's automatic and semi-automatic cold saws deliver high-output metal cutting with the precision and burr-free results serious fabrication operations demand. Engineered for production environments where speed, repeatability, and cut quality are non-negotiable.

Advanced Technology for Burr-Free Finishes

Scotchman automatic and semi-automatic cold saws use a low-RPM circular cutting process that functions similarly to milling, transferring heat into the chip rather than the workpiece. The result is a consistently burr-free, precision cut on both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, no secondary finishing required. Semi-automatic models give the operator control over feed rate and positioning while automating the cut cycle, reducing variability and operator fatigue. Fully automatic configurations take it further, integrating automatic horizontal head feed and programmable cut cycles that maintain dimensional accuracy across high-volume production runs. Every saw blade engages material with the same controlled cutting action that Scotchman cold saws have been known for across nearly six decades of American manufacturing.

Features That Drive Efficiency

Scotchman's automatic and semi-automatic cold saws are built around features that directly reduce cycle time and improve throughput. Swivel head capability on select models allows operators to execute precise angle cuts without repositioning the material, keeping production moving. Automatic horizontal feed systems advance material to programmed cut lengths consistently, eliminating manual measuring between cuts. Compatible measuring and automation systems can be integrated with your cutting saw machine to further streamline repetitive production work. Compared to manual cold saws, these automated configurations significantly reduce labor input per cut while maintaining the tight tolerances fabricators depend on for downstream assembly and finishing operations.

This is where it's at y'all. I'm a self confessed tool snob and I'm not gonna get all chatty kathy on this page about products I don't count on everyday, I'll say this, Scotchman Ind. has exceeded every expectation I had in deciding to go with them. Durability, customer service, and quality are superb. Homegrown business making machines in the U.S.A. Also, and you can disagree with me if you like, they don't post up fake and artificially enhanced women at FABTECH to sell Ironworkers. That fact alone heavily swayed my opinion to go with Scotchman. If you gotta use silicone to sell machines you've put your company culture and marketing interests in the wrong place.

After seeing the demonstration on the truck we were sold. Having the variable speed and auto-feed has really helped our production. Great machine - Great service.

We purchased a Scotchman CPO 350 LT Cold Saw & 6509-24M Ironworker one year ago. These machines have been one of my best investments! Our business has grown in size and volume, necessitating moving to larger facilities. We plan to purchase another ironworker, the Scotchman DO120, and an additional cold saw in the near future. Scotchman has allowed us to more than double our production.

This machine sure saves a lot of time. I thought my plasma table was fast for things like this (shearing 3 x 1/4 x 12" brackets), but this ironworker is much faster. I love this ironworker and my CPO 350 saw, both excellent pieces of equipment.

Quality over quantity. I chose Scotchman because I wanted a saw that would last and not need to be continually upgraded. Since getting a CPO 350 saw with measuring system, I can make multiple parts with almost NO variance. Plus, the angle capability has cut my framework in half and the 45° cuts are accurate. Also, having a burr free finished cut is a time saver with prep. Scotchman is one of the few companies I can call and actually speak to a person every time, not a voicemail, and I really appreciate that.
You are correct about the Scotchman Cold Saw and what a piece of art she is. Its running like a Champ.

We recenty bought a saw from your company. We are sure glad we bought your American made saw. Today, we cut up more material than we could have ever imagines (even with a tempory helper of which I am sure it was his first time running a saw!). Thanks again for making America look good. We still can make the best stuff out in the world!

We were going through two blades a day with our other brand of saw cutting stainless catalytic converter housings. We purchased this Scotchman upon recommendation from our dealer in Atlanta. The difference in the speed and efficiency of the cutting cannot be compared to our old saw. It has improved our output tremendously and we could not be happier!
Kenny Hall | Exsol Labs LLC
Excellent saw! Straight & quick cuts through both mild and tool steel.
Chip McCellan | Metal Industries Inc.
Great machine! The Scotchman cold saw is built extremely well. It is easy and fast to set-up and use. The quality of the machine will last forever, so there is never a worry about down time.
Darrell Gilbert | D Gilbert & Associates
Excellent machine! This is an excellent quality, very versatile saw.
Joe Muller | Sam Houston State University
This saw is a big time saver!
Kevin Jensen | Metalogic Inc
This saw performs flawlessly, and if you keep it clean it will not let you down. Quality & precision are the reasons I buy tools and is exactly what I get with Scotchman products.
Michael Deming | Deming Design
Great, low mainenance tool. I would recommend this tool to anyone working in the steel or fab industry.
Bob Lechner | ConSep Tec LLC
It cuts through metal like butter.
John Spargur | ERG International
Durable with repeatable results. Our saws work non-stop two shifts per day with a minimal amount of preventative maintenance.
Richard Milliman | Power Drives Inc
The SUP 600 performs better than we anticipated. It has excellent safety features and is very quiet. I'd highly recommend this saw to anyone who works with non-ferrous metals.
Tom Malo | Distran Packaged Substations
This is the most dependable and versatile piece of equipment we have. I can't imagine running a shop without it.
Jim Bridwell | Ozarks Tech Community College
Top of the line products "Lexus Quality"! We've had a cold saw for 12 years and love it.
James Cheatham | Toyota Motor Mfg

We've had many years of reliability with our Scotchman Cold Saw, 20 years to be exact. Its a workhorse and we love it!

Jason Northup | McCombs Steel

Our Scotchman cold saw & drill combo is one of the most consistently buys tools in the shop. Frem bar stock cutting for the mills to cutting and drilling washers -- it is always putting in the work!

If you are looking for excellence, then look no further. If thousands of HS students can learn on these machines and not break it... then it's a SOLID product!!
I have built a HS Welding/Ag Mech program up from nothing by using Scotchman products. I have taught kids to run two bandsaws, a cold saw and an ironworker during the past decades.  My students and I are proud to support Scotchman as the best in the game, and our top choice in the metal fabrication equipment arena!!
