After expanding its product range and enjoying a successful Viscom event in 2015, panel saw manufacturer Sagetech is continuing its prosperous run with the sale of a ZM vertical panel saw to the esteemed Mary Hare School near Newbury.

Mary Hare School near Newbury has purchased a ZM vertical panel saw from Sagetech

The school, which specialises in the education of deaf children, has purchased a ZM12, the smallest of the Zapkut range of machines. Staff say it has already been used extensively since installation, praising the cutting accuracy and the vacuum unit, which significantly cuts down on dust in the air and cleans up the process.

David Gibson, operations manager at Sagetech, comments: “This work involves cutting a lot of sheets of ply and MDF, which previously, when our very old table saw failed, we had to do on the bench using a hand-held portable saw, with never very accurate results, or having to manhandle sheets through classrooms to get to a fixed machine in the craft and design department.”

It is so much easier to carry in a sheet and just drop it on to the saw than it ever was with a table saw and then having to move it through}


Out of the four ranges that Sagetech manufactures, the Zapkut range is ideal for Mary Hare as it is designed for lighter duties, while the Koolkut range is designed for heavier projects.

Gibson concludes: “One of the biggest benefits is that it is saving our backs; it is so much easier to carry in a sheet and just drop it on to the saw than it ever was with a table saw and then having to move it through.”
