Gang Rip Saw

 

A gang rip saw—also known as a straight-line rip saw—is designed for high-precision, high-efficiency cutting. In this machine, circular blades are mounted directly to the motor, which is housed within a movable ram. The design allows for clean, accurate cuts as wood passes beneath the spinning blades, making it ideal for straight, repeatable rips across multiple boards at once.

Key Features:

  • Radial-style circular blades for consistent, straight-line ripping

  • Motorized ram allows for controlled and powerful cutting motion

  • Ideal for batch processing multiple pieces at once

  • Maintains glue-line precision with minimal deviation

Common Applications:

  • Cutting architectural sticks and trim components

  • Ripping cabinet parts, face frames, and rails

  • Processing mouldings, edge banding, and linear accessories

  • Sizing solid wood strips for joinery and subassembly

  • Breaking down rough lumber into uniform parts for production

  • Creating multiple identical components in one pass

Whether you're producing millwork, case goods, or decorative components, a gang rip saw is essential for efficiency, accuracy, and high-output workflows.
