The most common problem with carriage rails is flat rail wear in front of the saw, causing the carriage to roll sideways in the cut. This is evidenced by the backstand boards being thin in the middle and on-size at the ends. It also causes undo stress on the saws, requiring more frequent sharpening and benching. Any V-rail misalignment only adds to the problem. In the past, the solution to worn rails and the resulting sawing problems was to replace the rails with new ones. Not only is this very costly in terms of the expense of the new rails and labor involved, but also the considerable loss of production time. We offer a service that lends assistance in both areas. Ninety percent of the rails we check can be brought back to initial trueness using the process of in-place carriage rail restoration with no loss of production time. This is a proven process and is done at a fraction of the cost of rail replacement with equal or greater results.
