Functions

Our best plunge-cut saw - now twice as fast.

The TS has always stood out with its absolute precision cuts, maximum power and extreme durability.

The usual reliability remains – but the working speed is unprecedented: the TS 55 now saws at up to twice the speed. In addition, the new generation of cutting blades guarantees perfect cutting quality with maximum cutting performance.

Cuts are virtually splinter-free on both sides thanks to the attachable splinterguard, and accuracy is easy to achieve with the cutting edge from 90° to 47° remaining unchanged even when the saw swivels. A guide wedge allows for safer work and simple positioning in the existing joint.

With accessories, such as guide rails and the angle stop, or sophisticated and tried-and-test details, such as the splinter guard and extraction system perfectly matched to the machine, the TS 55 provides excellent work results and a top-class sawing system – for every challenge.

MAIN APPLICATIONS

  • Precise circular in materials up to 55 mm thick
  • Cutting interior doors to length using guide rail and circular saw
  • Cutting recesses in doors and kitchen worktops
