The first machine in the new B-series builds on the global success of the FS 2500 and redefines performance levels. At its heart: a machine bed made of a steel shell filled with special concrete – a hybrid solution that ensures maximum rigidity and damping, enabling the most uniform milling performance ever achieved in bandsaw production.
The KESEL B240M mills carbon, bi-metal, and carbide-tipped base materials. Standard with 240 mm cutters. Band widths up to 125 mm. The entire spectrum from 32 to 0.5 TPI.
More Meters. More Profit. More Reliability.

What makes the B240M stand out
Machine Rigidity
Machine bed and feed slide made of steel-concrete hybrid construction. Maximum damping, minimal vibration, for the highest quality milling performance on the market.
Siemens SINUMERIK ONE
The most modern CNC control in the industry, directly integrated into the control panel with hydraulic control. Complete NC programming, automatic workflow.
Loss-Free Band Feed
Milling starts from the very first millimeter. Significantly less material loss and a concrete contribution to more resource-efficient production.
Chip Management
2,500 liters coolant volume. Designed for emulsion and oil. A fleece fine filter system is optionally available for even better surface quality.
Milling Head F1-HSK
Backlash-free drives, 45 kW, up to 450 rpm continuously variable. The quietest milling process in the history of bandsaw manufacturing, with maximum tool life.
