Market leader in safety for band saws
Scott's multi-award-winning BladeStop™ bandsaw features a unique design to reduce the risk of serious injury. The blade of the band saw is mechanically stopped as soon as the unit detects that the operator is touching it.
With the shortest shutdown time on the market, BladeStop is the world leader in safety devices for band saws, with more than 1,500 devices on the market in 30 countries.
BladeStop's unique dual sensor
In addition to its touch-sensitive technology, BladeStop also features the GloveCheck™ sensor system. This detects the operator's gloves when they move quickly in a zone in front of the saw blade, making it ideal for quick operations.
By detecting contact with the human body, the pioneering BladeStop technology reduces the high risk of injury associated with a band saw and activates a quick, easy and user-friendly process.
The optional BladeStop Connect provides both real-time and historical operational data on productivity and the “operations log.

Technology that saves lives
How BladeStop™ works
The patented Dual-Sensing system combines two revolutionary technologies:
- Body-Sensing technology
This technology immediately detects when a body part comes too close to the saw blade, regardless of whether gloves are worn or not. - GloveCheck™
The integrated camera recognizes the color of the operator’s glove and triggers an emergency stop when the operator’s hand comes into close proximity to the saw blade. This danger zone is extremely limited and small, ensuring optimal productivity.
The result:
The fastest stop time on the market. BladeStop™ can mean the difference between a minor cut and the amputation of a finger.
