The SL series of sliding table saws from Ironwood Woodworking Machinery, a division of Stiles Machinery, delivers the quality and precision required for a chip-free cut, improving the results of subsequent machining, such as edge banding, drilling, and other processes after the pieces are sized and shaped, the company says.

The cutting accuracy of the SL series reduces assembly time as parts fit together more easily, and material waste and unexpected costs are also minimized as a result

Ideal for panel and solid wood processing, the series can make perfect miters, as well as rip, jointing, and crosscuts. The machines also feature aircraft-grade aluminum sliding tables manufactured in Europe with vertical guidance for accurate, square cuts over the full cutting length.

The sliding table’s smooth and precise movement requires less physical work from the operator, reducing overall user fatigue. The chrome-hardened guide rails ensure the sliding carriage passes straight without lateral
movement. 

The SL 300 Sliding Table Saw, as shown in the video below, features a 7.5 hp, three-speed main blade, and is accompanied by a scoring blade that is automatically adjusted via a controller. The all cast-iron, 2,500 lbs unit has a 10-1/2 foot carriage that is capable of cutting pretty much any size panel, Stiles adds.
