Altendorf WA 80

The WA 80 empowers you to tackle various material challenges, be it wood or plastic. Designed meticulously and built robustly, it effortlessly handles straightforward yet precise squaring cuts through intricate angles. Developed and assembled entirely in Germany, this machine establishes a new standard for sliding table saws in both price and quality. A guarantee for the success of your business.

BASIC SPECIFICATION FOR WA 80 TE and WA 80 X

Control panel on the machine frame

All functions are easily accessed on the control panel on the machine frame. You can control the rise/fall and tilt of the main saw blade at the touch of a button. The tilt angle is shown on the digital display.

Saw blade projection

The saw blade projection of the WA 80 is 150 mm (saw blade diameter 450 mm).

Rip fence with precise manual adjustment

Cutting width 1,000 mm

Setting the fence is easy; the precise adjustment facilitates great accuracy. The rip fence drops down clear of the machine table level to free up extra space for dividing large panels.

Crosscut fence with fixed 90° angle

Stops to 3,200 mm

The crosscut fence with fixed 90° angle earns its keep every day by helping with precision cuts on workpieces of different lengths and formats. The fence can be easily slid from front to back without lifting. Adjustment using graduated scale.

Sliding table

Table length 3,000 mm

The large dumbbell rollers guide the moving table with absolute precision between the hard-chromed guide bars. Robust though it is, the table responds even to a light touch, gliding smoothly and securely as if it were on rails. And it retains this ease of movement even after decades of hard work, dust and dirt.

Motor rating

4 kW (5.5 HP) with single speed (4,000 rpm)

Powerful and smooth-running The saw is a powerhouse produced with the latest manufacturing technology. The saw shaft runs incredibly smoothly because it is electronically balanced as a fully assembled unit and extensive use is made of cast components. The high-precision vertical movement of the unit is linear with maintenance-free guide bearings. The robust tilt quadrants incorporate the traditional Altendorf tongue and groove connection system, which allows the whole unit to tilt easily and precisely to exactly the correct angle.

Optional Features For Altendorf WA 80 (TE & X)

Extraction Hood

Big Extraction Hood for Max. Cutting Height of 150 mm

The large Altendorf extraction and safety hood system boasts a design which ensures optimised airflow.

– Saw Blade Diameter Max. 450 mm

Sliding Table Length

The Altendorf sliding table is renowned for its smooth and exact running. This is one of the hallmarks of an Altendorf, and it all comes down to design: the table runs on large dumbbell rollers sandwiched between hard chromed guide bars, guaranteeing absolute precision. The system’s large rollers ensure smooth action, meaning the table takes less effort to move and glides as securely as if it were on rails. This quality running will endure decades of heavy load bearing in the constant presence of dust and chips, and it needs virtually no maintenance. Each time the table moves, the brush fitted to the upper part automatically cleans the round guide bars. The system operates without any lubrication. The table’s hollow multi-chamber aluminium extrusion guarantees optimal torsion resistance and rigidity.
