NW-127
The NW-127 SawJET™ is a patent-pending all-in-one abrasive waterjet and 360-degree
programmable saw designed specifically to meet the needs of the stone countertop
industry. This technological breakthrough in the world of abrasive waterjet machines
provides fabricators with a faster, more cost-effective solution for processing
slab materials. The SawJET™ product line is part of a vertically integrated solution
that takes advantage of the technologies created for Northwood’s CNC stone machining
centers and their industry-leading StoneVision®, StoneLaser™, and StoneScan™ software
packages.

The way the SawJET™ operates is revolutionary. Most stone countertops are shaped
in such a way that they have many straight lines. The saw head on the SawJET™ rotates
360 degrees and is fully programmable, which enables the saw to make straight cuts
in any direction on the slab. Straight edges can be cut five to six times faster
with a saw blade than with a traditional abrasive waterjet and without the high
operation cost of conventional machines. The SawJET™ also enables the fabricator
to machine small granite or quartz parts without the use of backer boards or plastic
or rubber bumpers, which can compress and cause stone to crack.
The NW-127 features a single table configuration and a 50 Hp abrasive waterjet with
a standard 10 HP saw (a 15 HP saw unit is a standard option). The saw unit is capable
of running 10” to 14” saw blades. As with all Northwood Machine Manufacturing Company
machines, the SawJET™ features the industry-leading GE Fanuc control system, cast-iron
drive systems, zero-backlash, ground ballscrews with rotating nut technology, and
zero-hassle support.
