What is the difference between the S-20 and the S-20P Next Generation?

The S-20 is a manual band saw. The S-20P adds semi-automatic operation: a hydraulic powered head lift returns automatically after every cut, and a hydraulic full-stroke vise clamps material with variable pressure from 50 to 400 PSI. For shops running higher volumes or longer shifts, the S-20P reduces operator fatigue and speeds up cycle times without changing the footprint or the blade.
