03 microns in size, these systems enable users to keep their work environments safe, clean and healthy. By constantly monitoring air quality and filtering out particles as small as. For example, WOOD Magazine’s Innovate Awards also recognized General’s new air filtration systems, which feature a SMART infrared dust sensor control system. The Automated Table Saw and SMART Table Saw Retro Fence are among several newly released General products that incorporate the latest technology. The fence mounts to any table saw of 27 to 30-inch table depth and is available in both 36 and 52-inch rip capacities depending on users’ preferences and shop sizes. To enhance users’ capabilities with their existing table saws, General has also released a SMART Table Saw Retro Fence, which is the first digital, automated consumer table saw fence system on the market. This innovative saw has both height and tilt powered blade adjustments, and is available in four iterations of different sizes, left-tilting angles ranging from zero to 45 degrees, 36- and 52-inch rip capacities, and three and five horsepowers. The Automated Table Saw is particularly helpful for repetitive cuts: one touch of the button will adjust the fence to exactly where the user wants it. Once the fence is zeroed out, users can plug in any cut dimension and with the simple push of a button, the saw creates the precise rip cut needed. The fence is also automated and controlled by the same keypad. Using a SMART digital keypad located on the front of the fence, users can easily program the desired blade depth and angle before letting the saw handle the rest. General’s new Automated Table Saw offers unprecedented automation capabilities designed for maximum precision cutting.
As part of the magazine’s Innovate Awards 2021, the editors recognized these products as some of the best on the market today, offering superior quality and ingenuity. The Automated Table Saw, as well as General’s new air filtration systems, recently earned accolades from WOOD® Magazine.
