The WA 80 enables you to successfully take on any material challenge: no matter whether you are working with wood or plastic. With its well thought-out design and robust build quality, it makes light work of simple but precise squaring cuts through complex angles. Completely developed and assembled in Germany, the machine sets a new benchmark for sliding table saws in terms of price and quality. It will guarantee the success of your business.
This is what makes the WA 80 so special
An overview of the key features.
Control panel on the machine frame
You can control the height and tilt adjustment of the main saw blade at the press of a button. The tilt angle is shown on the digital display.
Rip fence with precise manual adjustment
Setting the fence is easy; the precise adjustment facilitates great accuracy. The rip fence drops down clear of the machine table level to free up extra space for dividing large panels.
Crosscut fence with fixed 90° angle
Stops to 3,200 mm
The crosscut fence with fixed 90° angle earns its keep every day by helping with precision cuts on workpieces of different lengths and formats. The fence can be easily slid from front to back without lifting. Adjustment using graduated scale.
Sliding table
Table length 3,000 mm
The large dumbbell rollers guide the moving table with absolute precision between the hard-chromed guide bars. Robust though it is, the table responds even to a light touch, gliding smoothly and securely as if it were on rails. And it retains this ease of movement even after decades of hard work, dust and dirt.

The job of cutting and sawing aluminium requires extreme precision. Altendorf sliding table saws have proven themselves for years in the aluminium-processing industry. As the perfect tool for cutting and sawing aluminium, WA 80 does the job with extraordinary precision and can be used individually. With the help of this machine, you can cleanly cut aluminium with sharp contours and to within a tenth of a millimetre.
Solid wood
The variety of grains lends a very special look to solid-wood furniture. The furniture is robust and stable. It also offers a degree of high quality that you can feel. The trimming, ripping and refinement of wood and boards create a different challenge. Discover our feature options that are specially designed for the processing of solid wood, features that turn the job into child’s play.
Plastic
WA 80 cuts all commercially available plastics in any desired form. The machine can easily handle even complex composite materials like carbon composite plates – and it can cut them to within a tenth of a millimetre! Learn more now about plastics processing with Altendorf.
Panel processing
Panel processing is a job that creates new challenges for carpenters and cabinet-makers day in and day out. Commercially available half-size panels are usually too large and, in the worst case, require two people to handle them. Added to this are scrap panels that could possibly be used for one thing or another at some point in the future. Before long, a pile of scrap wood has formed, and no one can find what he or she needs in it. The features offered by our WA 80 will make your panel-processing work even easier.

Motor rating
4 kW (5.5 HP) with single speed (4,000 rpm)
Powerful and smooth-running The saw is a powerhouse produced with the latest manufacturing technology. The saw shaft runs incredibly smoothly because it is electronically balanced as a fully assembled unit and extensive use is made of cast components. The high-precision vertical movement of the unit is linear with maintenance-free guide bearings. The robust tilt quadrants incorporate the traditional Altendorf tongue and groove connection system, which allows the whole unit to tilt easily and precisely to exactly the correct angle.
