SawStop »Scale« Precision Mitre Gauge
Engineered for unbeatable precision on any circular bench saw
The mitre gauge offers a swivel range of ± 90° in 1° increments, with additional detents at 22.5°. Each angle setting is locked precisely via a pointer detent, positioned by a lever. The integrated vernier scale allows angle adjustments to ⅒° accuracy. A robust 450 mm steel guide rail with anti-tipping protection and fine adjustment ensures smooth, play-free movement in the slot. Compatible with T-slots and U-slots with a cross-section of ⅜ x ¾ inch (9.52 x 19.05 mm).A durable 465 mm aluminium fence, extendable to 800 mm (plus an additional 60 mm by shifting the flip stop), features T-slots along the fence profile for attaching custom-made jigs (two slot nuts included). The scale along the top edge of the fence, in both millimetres and inches, can be adjusted and calibrated. Fence height: 64 mm.The fence features dual flip stops with fine adjustment for repeatable cut lengths. Each flip stop arm can be used and micro-adjusted independently.Includes mounting hardware, replacement scale, T-slot nuts, hex key, and instructions in German, English, French and Spanish.
The Active Injury Mitigation (AIM) system by SawStop
This revolutionary safety technology was developed by SawStop to stop the circular saw blade the moment it comes into contact with skin. The saw blade is supplied with a low-voltage signal. This voltage is continuously monitored on the opposite side of the blade. When a finger touches the blade, the voltage drops because the human body is conductive and grounded. Once a threshold value is undercut, the system triggers within just 25 microseconds. At that moment, a fuse wire melts, releasing a preloaded spring mechanism that propels an aluminium brake block into the spinning blade with high force. The brake stops the blade in approximately 5 milliseconds. Due to the sudden deceleration, the blade is simultaneously retracted below the table surface and pulled away from the point of contact - typically a finger.Although minor skin injuries such as abrasions may occur, the system effectively reduces the risk of serious cuts. After activation, the brake cartridge and saw blade must be replaced. However, the replacement process is user-friendly and can be completed within a few minutes.
SawStop
SawStop is not only a manufacturer of high-quality circular bench saws, but also the inventor of the AIM system, which stops the blade within 5 milliseconds upon skin contact. SawStop’s revolutionary Active Injury Mitigation (AIM) system has saved thousands of fingers and prevented countless serious hand injuries in the United States since the company was founded in 2000. Since 2017, SawStop has been part of Tooltechnic Systems (TTS), which also includes Festool and Shaper.
