In-House Motor Manufacturing
Original Saw Company manufactures all motors in our Northern Iowa facility to ensure the highest quality and performance. These totally enclosed fan-cooled (TEFC) motors feature cooling ducts that maintain optimal temperatures by moving air through the motor laminations. The enclosed design protects internal components from dust and contamination, extending the motor’s life.
We provide braking systems tailored to each Radial Arm Saw’s design.
- Saws without a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) are equipped with an integrated electro-mechanical brake system, delivering dependable blade stopping, even during power interruptions.
- For saws with a VFD, an electronic brake provides smooth operation and precise control.
Both braking systems enhance safety and reliability, reflecting the high standards we maintain in every motor we produce.
Heavy-Duty Cast Construction
Our Radial Arm Saws are built with iron and aluminum cast components, creating a rigid, vibration-free cutting platform. This durable construction delivers precision, minimizes wear, and provides a stable base for various cutting operations, including crosscuts, dado cuts, and bevel cuts. These robust materials make the saws ideal for professional woodworking and industrial environments.
Custom Electrical Panels
Original Saw Company designs and builds UL508A and CSA-compliant electrical panels in-house, tailored specifically for North American markets and our machinery. Certified by ETL labs, these panels meet rigorous safety and operational standards while offering a range of custom options. Our panels include essential features like low-voltage controls, overcurrent protection, and E-Stops, with options for automation and hour meters to monitor motor runtime.
By manufacturing panels onsite, we maintain strict quality control, ensuring each panel meets our high standards for reliability and performance. This process also allows us to control costs and provide solutions for various voltage requirements, including those for international markets.
Advanced Safety Features
Safety is a core focus in the design of our Radial Arm Saws. Each model features heavy-duty blade guards, accessible E-stops, and return reels that automatically retract the saw head to its starting position. These features minimize operator contact with moving parts, reducing the risk of accidents and enhancing overall safety during operation.
Dust Shroud Kits
Keep a workspace cleaner and healthier with a Dust Shroud Kit for a Radial Arm Saw. These kits capture dust directly at the source, reducing airborne particles and creating a safer environment for woodworking.
The Dust Shroud Kit offers multiple benefits, including improved visibility during cuts, reduced cleanup time, and enhanced project finish quality. It’s a practical upgrade for woodworkers seeking a more organized and efficient workspace.
Customizable Accessories
Original Saw Company offers a range of optional accessories to enhance the functionality of our Radial Arm Saws. Add features like Saw Measuring Systems for precise, repeatable cuts or Saw Extension Tables for improved material support during cutting operations. For enhanced productivity and safety, consider upgrading to Pneumatic Clamping, which securely holds materials in place with minimal effort.
These customizations allow operators to tailor their saws to specific workflow requirements.
