Striebig Celebrates 50 years of the Vertical Panel Saw

In 1961, John F. Kennedy became the President of the USA and the Russian Yuri Gagarin was the first person to travel into space. The very same year, Swiss master joiner Ludwig Striebig revolutionised sawing. He registered his patent for a “Device for cutting major structural plates to size or for cutting sections therefrom” – heralding the birth of the vertical panel saw.
