Industrial Panel Saw: Tips for First-time Buyers

An industrial panel saw simplifies cutting wood panels. Without the saw, people often cut panels using table saws that have limited cutting capacity, and take significantly longer to produce the desired pieces. If you are using alternative equipment to cut panels, implementing an industrial saw will increase your production capacity in two ways: by producing work faster, and lightening the workload of other equipment currently used to produce panels. If you are a first-time buyer who needs help choosing the right equipment, the tips below will help.

Consider buying used equipment

Some woodworking machine suppliers sell new equipment and used equipment. In many cases, the latter equipment performs as well as the former. The difference is that it costs significantly less than new equipment. Most used equipment is discounted from the original price. As long as the equipment has a spotless maintenance record, and is reconditioned by the seller, it should offer the performance of new equipment for the price of used equipment.

Choose the design that works best

An industrial panel saw comes in two designs: vertical and horizontal. Both designs are equally capable of cutting panels, but the vertical model is often chosen due to its smaller footprint and easy loading style. If you have a small workspace, or you need to save as much time on the production line as possible, a vertical model may be the best choice for your needs. To know for certain, consult two or more woodworking machine suppliers that specialize in saws.

Considering buying a CNC model

Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) equipment is operated by a computer. This feature typically increases the cost of the equipment. However, the extra cost is often negated by the financial benefits the equipment offers, including fewer waste pieces, faster production, and the ability to perform a production run without the continuous assistance of an operator. For high production environments, CNC equipment is the ideal choice.

Evaluate cutting ability

After you decide whether to buy used equipment, what style of equipment to buy, and whether to buy a CNC model or a conventional model, you should evaluate the cutting ability of the equipment. Several aspects could affect a saw’s cutting ability, but a model that has the following characteristics generally displays excellent cutting ability:

  • Braced, welded single piece frame
  • Rigid saw bean that twin locks
  • High-power motor
  • Adjustable, vibration-free cutting mechanism

These characteristics typically come standard with an industrial model.
