What to Look for in a Saw Sharpener

Dec. 15, 2015 - PRLog -- Whether you are looking to sharpen your own tools or to sharpen tools as a business venture, Thorvie International has the saw sharpener equipment and support you need to get the job done and be successful in the process.

There are some key attributes to look for when choosing a saw sharpener says Ken Frea, Thorvie International president. "Unless you have an unlimited budget, you don't want a piece of equipment that is limited to sharpening just one specific type of machine," he says. "You want equipment that gives you versatility to service all types of customers."

Thorvie's AV-40 (https://www.thorvie.com/product/av-40-grinder-saw-blades/) professional grinder sharpens saw blades, face, top and side grinds, and will sharpen different cutting tools like raised panel cutters and profile cutters as well as anti-kickback router bits and shaper cutters without motor interference.

Its motor maintains a wheel RPM of 3450, whereas other carbide saw grinders on the market actually slow down or stop the wheel when grinding. The AV-40's bearing assembly also has four bearings, while many other grinders typically only have three. This allows the AV-40's saw blade and tool holder to give precision grinding performance as the saddle bearing assembly is solid with no play whatsoever. Finally, the AV-40 is far less expensive compared to other systems.

Of course, Thorvie International also provides information on sales techniques, information on where to purchase supplies, tips and tricks, price lists and much more to help entrepreneurs succeed.
