The Talon 900 Edger is more than a great machine.
Great capacity, great power, and the split blades are a huge advantage. The Talon 900 Edger has been in our lineup for 25 years because it’s built around what actual sawyers need:
- a 3-inch depth of cut,
- 4-foot in-feed and out-feed conveyors that lock your workpiece solid,
- GRIP is the key, and only conveyor-feed edgers have it,
- and split blades that make maintenance actually manageable.
Split blades on an edger will save you hours of downtime. Here’s why that matters.
Most edgers? You’re tearing the whole machine apart just to change blades. And blades need to be changed regularly on edgers. With split blades, you open one collar, swap them out, and you’re back cutting. If you’re running more than one person at your mill, that difference in uptime adds up fast and can really increase your productivity.
Grip Matters More Than Anything
Here’s the simple truth: Conveyors GRIP. Rollers SLIP.
And that one difference is what separates an edger that produces clean, straight boards… from an edger that makes you fight every pass.
Roller tables can support a board, sure — but they don’t hold it. The workpiece can drift, shift, or walk out of line as it feeds through. And when that happens, you get exactly what you don’t want: crooked cuts and wasted lumber.
Conveyor-feed edgers solve that problem by doing what rollers can’t: they grip the board across a long, continuous surface. The more contact you have, the more control you have. And the more control you have, the straighter your boards come out.
That’s why the Talon 900’s 108 inches of conveyor table isn’t just a feature — it’s the reason it performs the way it does.
The bottom line?
Straight boards don’t happen by luck. They happen when the machine has a solid hold on the wood. That’s what the Talon 900 was built to do — and it’s why serious sawyers have chosen it again and again.
Bulletproof construction. American-made power. Built in Kansas City for 25 years and still going strong.
