inspection machines are the finest in the state. We also use a
power roller tension machine to get exact and uniform tension
each and every time.
4.) SHARPENING - Our 8 CNC and numerical controlled
automatic saw grinding machines are used for precision
sharpening of each tooth on the top and face.
5.) CLEANING, POLISHING & INSPECTION - To assure
customer satisfaction, every blade is cleaned, polished and
given a final inspection before being gently coated with oil to
prevent any rusting, we then dip each blade into a wax
compound to assure the saw blades safety during shipping.
