A band saw, a band saw assembly, and a method of spatially positioning a band saw blade are suggested. The band saw comprises a band saw blade against which a sawing material is adapted to be guided in a feed direction. A guide for the band saw blade has at least one magnet exerting a force on the band saw blade determining the spatial position thereof. The at least one magnet is adjustable in its force effect and the force is directed transversely to the feed direction. The guide, as viewed in the feed direction of the sawing material, has a front magnet and a rear magnet, the magnets facing a front area and a rear area, respectively, of the band saw blade. A method of spatially positioning a band saw blade is executed while a sawing material is guided against the band saw blade in a feed direction. A magnet force is exerted on the band saw blade. The magnet force, and thereby the position of the band saw blade is adjusted transversely to the feed direction. The magnet force, as viewed in the feed direction of the sawing material, is exerted on a front area and on a rear area of the band saw blade. |
