Description

Goggle mask.png

The panel saw is a circular saw mounted to a mechanical gantry allows it to travel smoothly in a vertical path over a frame designed to hold large flat sheets. Sheets are held in the frame while the saw is drawn down to make a cross cut. Alternatively, the saw can be rotated to make a horizontal, or "rip" cut. For rip cutting, the saw is fixed in place and sheets are fed through the machine, supported on rollers.
