SawStop

SawStop is an American table saw manufacturer headquartered in Tualatin, Oregon. The company was founded in 2000 to manufacture table saws that feature a patented automatic braking system that stops the blade upon contact with skin or flesh. This aims to minimize injuries that are relatively common when working with normal table saws. Sawstop announced in 2017 that it was purchased by TTS Tooltechnic Systems, owners of Festool and other brands.
