Better Hardware

Our Premise

An automatic saw measuring system only benefits your business if you can trust it to position accurately every day.

Mechanical Fact

Since most automatic saw measuring systems calculate stop position based on motor rotation, drive component precision is crucial to long term accuracy.

Our Conclusion

The conclusion is simple – the quality of the drive components directly affects return on investment.

Better By Design

RazorGage continually exceeds expectations due to the design of our products, quality of our components and superior programmable saw software.

RazorGage: Uses no sensors for homing or end of travel eliminating the need for failure prone components and wiring.

Competitor: Contamination sensitive sensors inside the beam require long cable runs around sharp corners.

competitor positioner with contamination sensitive sensors.

RazorGage: 30 tooth drive pulley used on RazorGage has a larger bend radius increases belt life and twice the teeth to resist tooth shear.

Competitor: 15 tooth pulley competitor uses, has a tighter bend radius reducing belt life and half the teeth to resist tooth shear.

RazorGage: The RazorGage drive pulley is machined to match the belt tooth profile eliminating backlash.

RazorGage positioner zero clearance pulley.

Competitor: Standard pulleys have 1/64” clearance allowing backlash which reduces accuracy.

What Sets RazorGage Programmable Saw Systems Apart

If you’re investing in an automatic saw measuring system, you want a product that is dependable every single day. Replacing parts and paying for repairs will cut into your ROI. To get the most out of your new programmable saw positioner, choose one with superior components made of high-quality materials.

For example, the positioning carriage on a RazorGage automatic saw system is mounted on recirculating ball bearing blocks rolling on hardened steel. Competitors use plastic and aluminum — materials that are much more prone to inaccuracy and wear. RazorGage components are designed to minimize backlash, reduce wear and ensure a high level of accuracy and consistent performance time after time. By comparison, our competitors’ components are lower quality, and it shows in the overall poorer performance of the positioner.
