Our saws are engineered in the US and built in Taiwan. Our cartridges are programmed at our Oregon headquarters. To ensure that our rigorous standards are met, we employ a team of manufacturing engineers in Taiwan who work directly with the manufacturing facilities and key vendors to monitor for quality. The facilities where SawStop saws are assembled are ISO 9001 certified. Our engineers oversee the inspection of component parts prior to final saw assembly, assess assembly procedures for consistency with SawStop requirements, and evaluate final production prior to shipment. Every SawStop saw must pass a 100+ point comprehensive inspection.
