A history going back to 1890
The Hardening Master at one of Sweden’s leading iron works, Lars Håkansson, took out a patent on a new hardening method. After Lars retired, his son Gustaf took over responsibility for the hardening process at the iron works. Gustaf Håkansson teamed up with his brother, Bror Håkansson, the founder of Håkanssons Industrier. A new division was formed, Håkansson Sågblad, specializing in hardened band saw blades with flexible backs. Gustaf Håkansson was a pioneer in the heat-treatment of band saw blades using high-frequency technology (induction hardening). He was also active in the development of milling machines for band saw blades. Håkansson Sågblad opened a new factory in Åmål that provided space for future growth and development. Two additional factory extensions were nevertheless necessary. Production of Bi-Metal started. To this day, Håkansson Sågblad is still the sole Swedish manufacturer of band saw blades made of Bi-Metal. The first extension of the production premises was completed. The most recent extension – a mobile high-rise store — of the factory was completed. Håkansson Sågblad celebrates its 75th anniversary.
