A component according to the disclosure may include a body having an aperture therein for receiving one of a turbomachine shaft or a lathe chuck, wherein in response to the body being coupled to the lathe chuck, the aperture is oriented substantially axially relative to an axis of rotation of the body with the lathe chuck; and a flange coupled to and in direct axial contact with the body, the flange including a surface that extends axially relative to the axis of rotation of the body, wherein the surface of the flange comprises a matingly engageable face configured to contact an axially aligned surface during operation of the component and having a sanding indentation thereon, wherein a surface roughness of the surface of the flange is less than a surface roughness of a remainder of the component.

A sliding compound miter saw slide device allows a user to easily and accurately move a saw for proper alignment with a cutting material or workpiece. The sliding saw slide device integrates an adjustment or alignment mechanism configured to move an upper base portion of the saw base relative to a lower base portion of the saw base. In addition, a sliding saw stand allows a user to easily and accurately move a saw for proper alignment with a cutting material or workpiece. The sliding saw stand integrates an adjustment or alignment mechanism configured to move an upper miter saw mount member/plate relative to the saw stand base/base frame.

A metal clad electrical cable saw cuts cable laying in a concave track. A cross-cut saw cuts entirely though the cable making the cable into two cables. Two slitting saws cut outer armor of the cable at two places approximately nine inches from the cross-cut to allow removing the severed outer armor. The two slitting saws cut through one or more overlapping rings of metal that form the outer armor which is of an extruded interlocking design, thereby allowing the outer armor to be removed exposing the electrical wires. Slitting blade guards protect an operator's hands while cutting the cable. The exposed electrical wires may be inserted into an electrical box for connection and the remaining outer armor typically “stops” inside an electrical connector. The connector secures the cable in accordance with applicable practice and code requirements.

A wet cutting saw for cutting a ground portion, the wet cutting saw including a blade rotatable about an axis, a liquid feed conduit for feeding liquid onto a surface of the blade as it rotates, a frame for carrying the blade and configured to travel over a surface of the ground portion, and a mounting assembly that mounts the blade to the frame, at least part of the mounting assembly pivotable relative to the frame to raise and lower the blade relative to the frame.

A machine tool, in particular a chop saw and/or miter saw, includes (i) at least one pivot arm, (ii) at least one drive unit arranged on the pivot arm, (iii) at least two energy storage units, in particular battery packs, which can be electrically connected in series, for supplying energy to the drive unit, and (iv) at least two coupling units for fastening the energy storage units to the pivot arm. The coupling units are arranged on the pivot arm at an offset to one another with respect to a longitudinal axis of the pivot arm, the longitudinal axis of the pivot arm running at least substantially parallel to coupling surfaces, in particular main extension planes, of the coupling units.

A saw slide device allows a user to easily and accurately move a saw for proper alignment with a cutting material or workpiece. The saw slide device generally includes a sliding plate configured to support an associated saw, an adjustment or alignment mechanism configured to move the sliding plate, and a base frame which supports the sliding plate and adjustment mechanism.

The invention relates to a portable automated panel cutter comprising a plurality of frame profile are releasably connected to form a support frame defining an inner support area. A carriage releasably mounted to the frame comprising a tool holder carriage movable in a second direction (Y) relative to the inner support area. The carriage is movable in a first direction (X) relative to the inner support area. A tool holder releasably mounted to the tool holder carriage. A power cutter releasably mounted to the tool holder, the power cutter is movable in a third direction (Z) relative to the inner support area and in an angle (φ) around the third direction (Z). Finally, the panel cutter comprises a controller configured for receiving input data and based hereon control the position (X, Y, Z) and orientation (φ) of the power cutter.

A machine-tool system, particularly for work on a railway line, having at least one machine-tool such as an abrasive rail saw, and a device for driving the machine. The machine-tool is provided with an electric motor powered by an electric battery which is advantageously arranged in an assembly that can be worn by the operator of the machine and is connected to the motor by a power discharge cable.

A saw slide device allows a user to easily and accurately move a saw for proper alignment with a cutting material or workpiece. The saw slide device generally includes a sliding plate configured to support an associated saw, an adjustment or alignment mechanism configured to move the sliding plate, and a base frame which supports the sliding plate and adjustment mechanism.

A saw with a base assembly, a saw assembly pivotally mounted on the base assembly which is capable of pivoting towards the base assembly to a cut a work piece located on the base assembly, and a fence assembly extending across at least part of the base assembly. The fence assembly has a fence base, a fence plate slidingly mounted on the fence base, and a moveable stop mounted on the fence plate which is capable of being moved between two positions.
