The present invention relates to improvements in a magnetic featherboard, the featherboard having an elongate main body with opposite lateral faces, a bottom face and front and rear faces; a plurality of resiliently deformable feathers arranged at one or both lateral faces of the main body, and at least two, on-off switchable permanent magnets respectively received in one of at least two spaced apart recesses of the main body such that a working face of the respective switchable permanent magnet is present at the bottom face of the main body. One improvement comprises (i) providing a resiliently deformable friction gasket adjacent the working face of each of the switchable permanent magnets and protruding, in an non-deformed state, a predetermined amount from the bottom face of the main body and the working faces, the gaskets deformable through magnetic clamping of the featherboard to a table. The other improvement resides in providing at least two adjustable stops at one or both of the front and the rear face of the main body, each said stop comprising an abutment piece displaceable in longitudinal direction relative to the front/rear face, wherein a distance of each of the abutment pieces from the front/rear face is settable independently of each other, the stops operational to provide at least two abutments against which stock material to be machined can be placed when the featherboard is magnetically secured to the table.

An adjustable positioning structure for a feeding support plate of a circular sawing machine contains a magnetic element, a micro pneumatic cylinder, and a control button. The magnetic element is accommodated in a magnetic slider which is fitted with a guide column on a material feeding side of a table of the circular sawing machine and is configured to produce a change of a magnet value of the magnetic slider when the magnetic slider moves along the guide column reciprocately, such that a displacement value of the magnetic slider is calculated and is displayed by a display on the magnetic slider. The micro pneumatic cylinder is mounted on the magnetic slider and is configured to fix or release the magnetic slider relative to the guide column. The control button is arranged on the feeding support plate and is configured to control the micro pneumatic cylinder to operate.

A miter gauge for guiding a work piece over a work platform has a base assembly that slides over the work platform and a fence that engages the work piece on the work platform. The fence is movable relative to the base assembly and includes a first locating member. A second locating member is operatively connected to the base assembly and selectively engages the first locating member of the fence. The second locating member moves between a locked position where the second locating member is engaged with the first locating member to inhibit movement of the fence and hold the fence at a preset position and an unlocked position where the second locating member disengages the first locating member so that the fence and base assembly are free to move relative to one another.

A wheel spinning flash cutting device includes a rack, a turnover cylinder, a connection rod, a top plate, a first guide rail, a sliding plate, bearing pedestals, first shafts, rollers, a clamping cylinder, a first motor, a belt wheel, a base, a synchronous belt, second shafts, second rails, a support, a cutting blade, a second motor, a feed cylinder and a bracket.

Various embodiments of tools with integrated measurement devices are described. An apparatus may include a tool to be applied to a workpiece, an integrated measurement device in a feed path of the tool, and a controller. The integrated measurement device may generate signals indicative of rotation of a roller in a feed path of a workpiece. The controller may generate, based on the signal, a distance measurement of the workpiece. The distance measurement may indicate a distance between an end of the workpiece and a location of the workpiece to which the tool is to be applied.
