Details
BladeStop™ is a state-of-the-art safety bandsaw, which significantly reduces the risk of serious injury. The innovative Dual-Sensing technology provides second-to-none protection with Vision and Body-Sensing capabilities. The GloveCheck™ Vision-System detects a hand even before an operator comes into contact and triggers our braking mechanism, which brings the blade to a full stop in under 10 milliseconds — the fastest stopping time on the market.
The Jury‘s Statement
With its high-tech sensor technology, the modern "BladeStop" band saw recognises whether a hand is getting too close to the saw blade and switches the saw off within fractions of a second.
