Lis Has Made Another Incredible Sale!

Posted on 27/01/2025

At Welding Superstore, we’re always ready to help customers find the right equipment for their needs, and this week, we’re excited to share a recent success story. A customer reached out to us looking for a semi-automatic bandsaw that could deliver precision and reliability—and after a few discussions, we were able to recommend the FMB Pluton.

Along with the bandsaw, the customer chose to add the LX laser lighting system, which projects a red line onto the material to show exactly where the blade will cut—helping to ensure accurate cuts every time.

The FMB Pluton stands out for its thoughtful features, making it ideal for workshops where precision and efficiency matter:

• Hydraulic feed control ensures smooth and consistent cutting.
