One Piece Squaring Arm
You'll never have to shim up one side or the other to achieve a perfect 90° cut. The horizontal squaring arm is machined from one single heavy-duty aluminum extrusion so that both the left and right sides are in perfect alignment with each other.
Vertical Cutting Bar
When clamped down, there is no gap between the vertical cutting bar and the surface of the material being cut. It is steel re-enforced and won't bend or flex even when cutting dense thick materials like 1/2" Sintra® and gatorboard®.
Pressure Sensitive Clamp
Light clamping gives you the ability to line up the board to hold position, but allows it to be moved under the clamp for final alignment. The harder the clamping handle is pushed, the firmer the grip on the board.
Cutting Line Indicator
There is a clear plastic strip located along the left side of the vertical cutting bar that accurately indicates the cut line. When cutting to crop lines, pencil marks or edges of an image, your site line is your cut line. All four tools cut along the same cutting line.
Flip Stops
Two flip stops make cutting to size easy. Flip stops can be engaged or disengaged without disturbing the settings. Accurate cutting by eye is made simple by the dual calibrated scales.

Ratchet Control
Are you working with extra dense materials like 1/2" Sintra® and gatorboard®? Say goodbye to saw marks and dust! Say hello to beautiful clean edges. The built-in ratchet allows you to cut these materials in multiple passes. Notch the cutter to the depth required, take the cut, repeat notching the cutter until the full depth is reached.
Counter-Balance (Excalibur 5000 only)
The counter balance takes the effort out of lifting the cutting head. When released, the balanced cutting head stays in the last position ready for the next operation. The counter balance weight can be transferred to the upper or lower cutting head with the flip of a switch.
Other Outstanding Features Included with Each Cutter
- Mounted to the wall at the top end only, two telescopic legs can adjust upon installation to suit the height of the user. To use the Excalibur in the middle of the workshop floor, specify the optional free-standing kit.
- Squaring Adjustor Wheel at the top of the Vertical Cutting Bar provides easy and accurate 90° squaring adjustment.
- Large Back Panels on both sides of the machine give maximum support to the material being cut.
