noun
Refers to the stationary power tool, not the blade itself. Common in woodworking and metalworking contexts.
工場で帯のこ盤を使って木材を切断する。
We cut wood using a band saw machine in the factory.
帯鋸 refers to the band saw blade itself, while 帯のこ盤 is the entire machine.
Compound of 帯 (belt) + のこ (saw) + 盤 (machine/board). The exact historical derivation is uncertain, but the term describes a saw with a continuous band blade.
