APS - AutoPusher System
Automatic Saw Optimizing Industrial Upcut System
The RazorGage APS Automatic Optimizing Upcut Saw System is built around the powerful and highly accurate RazorGage RG3 Automatic Saw Measuring System and the durable, clean-cutting Cyclone 600 Upcut Saw.
The APS optimizes your cuts, but the main feature is the Automatic Pusher System which allows you to push “Go” and stand back. The automatic saw does the work and allows one person to both feed the saw and offload the finished parts. The APS automatic positioner and automated saw system enables more efficient processes in your cutting operation.
What is truly unique about the APS is that it can produce fine cuts in wood and aluminum — with part accuracy as good as +/-.002” — while also being able to push a bundle of twelve 2 x 4s, at 40 inches per second — all for a lower price than the competition.
Using the RazorGage APS Auto Feed Saw
One feature that makes the APS automatic saw stand out from the crowd is the Intelligent Clamping System. This clamping system eliminates the hazards caused by half clamping the leading or trailing edge of your material and decreases the likelihood of scrapped parts.
Overall, the APS automatic positioner and saw system is designed to increase accuracy and efficiency while decreasing the risk for mistakes. This machine truly optimizes the production flow and minimizes the time required to complete the job.
This automated industrial upcut saw is great for cutting wood, aluminum or nearly any non-ferrous metal. When you order the RazorGage APS automated saw with aluminum cutting option, it includes an aluminum cutting blade and left and right mist blade lubrication.
Two days installation and training are included with the purchase of all optimizing saw systems, including the APS industrial upcut saw system (US or Canada only). After installation and training, your brand new APS auto feed saw will be up and running quickly, safely and efficiently.

Automated Saw Software
This optimizing industrial upcut saw system gives you the ability to download your cutlists and use multiple criteria to sort lists into hundreds of groups. Our automated saw fence software is flexible, allowing you to import pre-made lists or edit and create cutlists right at the saw.
In addition to optimizing, the powerful yet intuitive RazorGage software offers several customized screens for various processing needs.
APS Auto Feed Saw Software Screens and Settings
The Autolist Screen opens and sorts cutlists into groups of like material type, color, job — you name it! Then, it optimizes to maximize yield. It can also run pre-optimized cutlists. The optimizing software is extremely intuitive yet very powerful.
- Optimize at the machine or run pre-optimized lists from a cutting plan.
- Sort your cut list into hundreds of groups by multiple criteria.
- Contains unlimited cut list mappings.

Pusher Screen – Repeating Pattern
The Auto Pusher Screen enables users to define a cut pattern for a given stock length, save it and run it whenever it’s needed. Repeating Pattern allows you to run the same pattern over and over as much as needed, until you reach the quantity of parts needed. The auto-feed saw software can store thousands of predefined cut patterns and cutlists.
Pusher Screen – Simple List
Simple List allows you to enter your stock length, length of your parts, and quantity needed. You save your list and open. You have options to optimize if desired and/or stack your material to cut multiple boards in one cut. Simply press go and the positioner moves so you can make your trim cut and then goes to the first desired length position. It’s easy to use.
