Saw Trax Compact Classic Series 120V Single Phase 52” Cross Cut Vertical Panel Saw with Compact Size Frame C52C

Description

The Compact Classic Series was developed as a lower price point panel saw for an apples-to-apples comparison with the bare bones panel saws that are on the market. They have identical accessories but the features of Saw Trax machines set it apart from the low end competing panel saws. The differences are the standard features that come with each panel saw. Saw Trax has features like a powder coated frame vs. a zinc coated frame, real bearings on the carriage vs a U bolt with nylon rings, a patented alignment system that doesn’t go out of square, more material rollers, nickel plated guide tubes vs zinc plated guide tubes. When these are compared, Saw Trax feels there is “still no comparison” and your choice will be the Saw Trax Machine. This is the choice of the user who knows what he wants and not what we think he should have. These compact frames use the Makita 5007F saw. Not just a panel saw, you can use other cutting inserts in the carriage like a router, rolling shear, pivoting razor knife and glass cutter. 

The Saw Trax Classic Panel Saw comes with the Makita 5007F saw and saw cover, mounted to a spinning insert plate in a quick release carriage. It uses the Accu-Glide steel sealed bearing system with 12 bearings to travel up and down the 11 gauge nickel plated guide tubes. The guide tubes are attached to the frame with identical top and bottom brackets ensuring a straight travel of the saw. The top bracket is fixed to the machine and the bottom bracket can be moved with the Accu-Square indexed alignment system allowing for 1/32” incremental movement. This is set at the factory for perfect alignment when you receive it. It will never go out of square with this system. 

10 material rollers are used on the Saw Trax Compact 5 ft. wide frames vs 8 on competitors. This difference provides better support on Saw Trax machines. Besides more material roller support, a center material support step is used on the machine to support thinly cut pieces preventing them from falling and bouncing back into the saw blade after the cut. 

The Saw Trax machine is designed with the component system in mind. Where this makes a big difference is if your panel saw were to be damaged or you want to use a different cutting tool in the carriage. The guide tubes and material fences could be easily removed and replaced if necessary. These are the parts that typically get damaged. Since other saws weld these parts on, you are buying another machine. With Saw Trax, you simply get another fence or guide tube. 

The Makita 5007F saw is an off the shelf saw. This mean it can be worked by any Makita service centers or replaced by any Makita Dealer. This means to you cheaper and faster repair/replacement and shorter down times. Both frames are welded steel tubing and powder coated not just zinc coated or painted. The multi-function quick release saw carriage that can use other cutting tools like a floating router, razor knife, glass cutter, and rolling aluminum composite shear. 

Including all the standard features, like a Makita 5007F circular saw on a spinning insert plate for both vertical and horizontal cuts and a dust containment hood and viewing port, Saw Trax Classic Series Panel Saws are perfect for hobbyists. With Saw Trax’s patented Accu-Square alignment system assuring that your machine will never go out of square, the Classic Series is reliable, accurate, and easy to learn, and is the right tool for the person who wants what they want.
