INCRA | Precision Tools TS-LS Table Saw Fence Metric 810mm

        

The INCRA TS-LS offers the one thing that every table saw fence should have, but none of them do, namely, Automatic Positioning Control. All other table saws depend on a tape measure and your eyesight to position your work. That's why all table saw users are resigned to the fact that a good cut requires long set-up times and endless trial and error.

The INCRA TS-LS completely eliminates the need for these tedious processes by using INCRA'S patented lead screw technology to position your work instantly and automatically to within 0.002". Even better, if you want to repeat a cut, you can return to any former position in less than 5 seconds with ZERO repeatability error. This kind of accuracy and perfect repeatability are luxuries that woodworkers could only dream about before the INCRA TS-LS. And because of its structural design, centrally placed carriage, and optimized side-mounted clamping system, the entire unit virtually welds itself together into one solid block of steel and aluminum when locked in place. The result is exceptional strength, rigidity, and stability.

Spend more time cutting, and less time tapping and measuring! Now available in metric, the LS positioner's patented lead screw positioning mechanics allow fence positioning accuracy of +/- .002" at 1/32" increments (+/-0.05mm on 1mm increments) across its entire range. It's essentially perfect even without the built-in micro-adjust, but the large micro-adjust knob turns the lead screw against the mating threads, allowing the fence to be shifted between incremental steps with .001" (0.025mm) resolution. The incredible control available completely eliminates the "Tap, tap, tapping" involved in making small adjustments to a conventional rip fence.

And since the mike is lead screw-based and reads directly in thousandths of an inch, it's repeatable as well. This micro adjust is entirely different from the random, slow-motion knobs used on rip fences in the past.

INCRA's TS-LS System was one of only two fence systems to earn top scores for alignment against the blade and lack of deflection in Wood Magazine's May 2004 Rip Fence Test. Perfect alignment relative to the blade is guaranteed by the system's low friction and by the carriage lock's tremendous pressure across the sliding carriage, not unlike traditional T-square style rip fences. The fence can be initially aligned parallel to the miter slot, slightly "relieved" on the outfeed end, or anywhere in between.

52" Range

The 52" (1320mm)-capacity TS-LS System uses 92" rails and either a 32" or 810mm LS Positioner. The standard Mount Unit (LS52-TS) handles saws measuring 28" or smaller front-to-rear (along the miter slot). Saws measuring 28" to 33-1/2" deep can be accommodated by ordering the TS-LS with the "XL" Mount Unit (LS52-TS-XL), which has a longer fence and base support panel.
