ProductDescription
Often, as part of an initial sizing procedure, panel saws are used to cut large sheet materials into smaller rectangular portions and pieces. They consist of a circular saw, a sturdy upright frame for holding the workpiece, and a guided track for precise cutting. Unlike a table saw, where the workpiece moves past the blade, a panel saw remains stationary while the saw moves across it.
The Safety Speed C4 Compact 50" Vertical Panel Saw is designed for users with limited floor space or those needing a portable saw for job sites. This compact saw features a 5' frame while maintaining the functionality of full-size saws. It supports a maximum crosscut of 50 inches, a maximum rip cut of 96 inches, and a cut depth of up to 1.75 inches. This makes the C4 ideal for cutting 4' x 8' sheets or materials up to 50" wide. If a larger crosscut is needed, consider the Safety Speed C5, which offers a 64” maximum crosscut.
Vertical panel saws are designed with multiple safety features to minimize operator errors. Whether cutting MDF, plywood, or other sheet materials, they provide a safe and efficient cutting experience. The vertical tilt of the machine allows for easier handling of large sheets.
