SawStop

SawStop is an American company based near Portland, Oregon, that specializes in designing and manufacturing table saws with a strong emphasis on safety. Founded in 2000 by Dr. Steve Gass and his team, SawStop introduced a patented automatic braking system that stops the saw blade within 5 milliseconds upon contact with skin, significantly reducing the risk of serious injuries. The first commercial model was launched in 2004, and the company has since become a leader in woodworking safety.

SawStop offers a range of table saw models, including Industrial Cabinet Saws, Professional Cabinet Saws, Contractor Saws, and Jobsite Saws, all equipped with the Active Injury Mitigation (AIM) system. This technology has been credited with saving thousands of fingers and is recognized as the top cabinet saw in North America. The company serves professional woodworkers, contractors, and serious hobbyists, focusing on safety and performance. SawStop is committed to quality assurance and customer support, backed by a strong dealer network across North America and expanding into Europe.
