Panel Saws for Heavy Duty Industrial to Home Shop

Anything Other Than A Saw Trax, Just Doesn’t Cut It.
A panel saw to fit your needs and budget.
“More Cuts for less Bucks”

This is a walk through of the standard features on a 1000 Series Vertical Panel Saw.

The features presented here are specific to the 1052 but will give you a good idea of what all our Vertical Panel Saws are like.

Just click a number to explore the features!

1. The Accu-Glide system uses 12 sealed bearing for easy and precise movement.
2. Two Carriage locks secure carriage during rip cuts or when using router.
3. Makita 5007F 15 amp saw. Uses standard 7.25” saw blades. Without the dust hood installed, you can vary your depth of cut to score material for a bend. Blade lock for fast and easy blade changes.
4. Guide tube support brackets ensure guide tubes stay parallel and allows you to replace a single tube at a time.
5. The Cord Holder protects your cords by holding them up and out of the way of the cutting path.
6. Hose Channel keeps hose aligned on spool and out of your way.
7. The dust hose is 2” in diameter and 12’ long. Included hose coupler allows you to just plug it into select shop vacuums.
8. Metal dust hood over saw has lighted blade viewing port.
9. Spinning saw insert plate allows for faster rotation from standard to rip cuts.
10. Rip Pointers allow fast and easy rip cut set up.
11. Guide tubes are 1/8” thick and nickel chrome plated.
12. The folding stand folds from the front just like a ladder for easy movement. Has 10 lock nuts and is factory attached.

13. Welded steel frame is powder coated.
14. Side stand legs keep machine stable when set up.
15. Fence lip has an off-set bend to allow for 1 ¾” crosscut. There are 18 support rollers on a full-size machine compared to 14 rollers on other machines. A second set of material roller holes allows the user to raise the material rollers and start their cut below the material. This is useful for thin plastics that tend to shatter.
16. 5-inch transport wheels allow for easy movement of the entire machine. When machine is tilted back on the stand the wheels are off the ground.
17. Spring on rip gauge tape keeps tape straight and easy to read.
18. Center material support is standard and supports your material remarkably close to your saw blade.
19. The patented Accu-Square system allows for easy one-time factory alignment of the machine and guarantees your machine should never go out of square again.
20. Stop Block rides on fence lip. It can be used on either side of the saw with a strip bar.
21. The Accu-Fence bracket is attached to one fence to ensure ends of fences are in alignment.
