The 22″ series with VFD technology

The Super Duty Series wood cutting saws are the ultimate radial arm saws of the industry. With their large 7.5 horsepower arbor motors, they are capable of operating 2 to 3 shifts per day in an industrial wood cutting environment.  These radial arm saws are capable of a wide variety of wood cutting operations including miter cutting, bevel cutting, compound miter work and can cut off wood that is up to 8″  thick in a single pass.  These 22-inch radial arm saws are set apart from the standard Super Duty series saws by the shorter arbors which allow a deeper depth of cut at a 45 degree bevel, and no ability to swivel to a rip position. These saws can be outfitted with a powered carriage option that converts the machine to pushbutton operation.

These radial arm saws weigh in at a massive 850 pounds and are constructed of cast and ductile iron for vibration free operation.  These saws are much more than a radial arm saw.  When coupled with optional equipment, they are a wood cutting platform for a wide variety of cutoff work as well as dado operations both in manual and semi-automatic modes.  Our American made saws are built in our Northern Iowa facility with American castings and American made motors.
