For many woodworkers, rust on table saws has long been a source of frustration. About ten years ago, Harvey began addressing this challenge by incorporating the TiN PVD Coating technology into products, reducing wear and rust on table saw surfaces.
However, Harvey is always striving for perfection. Five years ago, we started exploring the nickel plating technology. After countless tests on the process and formulation, we have successfully implemented optimal nickel plating technology on the tabletop and the dovetail trunnion system within the table saw, ensuring a literally rust-free experience for users by completely eliminating issues of wear and rust.
This superior nickel plating solution adopts the autocatalytic plating process, combining with a mid-phosphorus chemical nickel formula, significantly enhances wear resistance and rust prevention capabilities, resulting in a smoother and more lustrous finish.
Furthermore, the nickel-plated table surfaces achieved an impressive hardness of 500HV - 700HV, considerably improving their wear resistance. Extensive friction tests using wooden blocks consistently demonstrated that the nickel layer effectively protected the table surface.
We conducted a series of high-temperature and strong acid corrosion tests to evaluate the longevity of the nickel-plated surfaces. The results indicated that, under normal usage conditions, the nickel-plated surfaces could maintain their rust prevention performance for years. Notably, even in highly humid working environments, they exhibited exceptional rust prevention capabilities.

Superior Durability and Resistance: The table undergoes a chemical nickel-plating process that bonds the nickel layer thickly to the base material, reaching an impressive hardness range of 500 HV to 700 HV, significantly enhancing its durability and resistance to corrosion and wear. Extensive friction tests using wooden blocks consistently demonstrated that the nickel layer can effectively protected the table surface.
Additionally, we conducted a series of high-temperature and strong acid corrosion tests to evaluate the longevity of the nickel-plated surfaces. The results indicated that, under normal usage conditions, the nickel-plated surfaces could maintain their rust prevention performance for years. Notably, even in highly humid working environments, they exhibited exceptional rust prevention capabilities.

An unprecedented rip-cutting solution for table saws
In order to elevate the user experience and operational efficiency of the HW110S, we've integrated our cutting-edge Big Eye Rip Fence System into the standard features of the HW110S.
At the core of the Big Eye Rip Fence System lies the Dual-axis Linear Guide Rail System, featuring eight rollers with bearings that effortlessly glide along the two hardened and ground steel rods with zero clearance. This innovative design replaces traditional bushing sliding friction with smooth rolling friction, resulting in exceptional accurate fence movement (0.15mm in full length).
Dual-end Clamping controlled by the linkage mechanism
The innovative Synchronized Dual-end Fence Locking Mechanism enables simultaneous clamping of the fence on to the solid front and rear guide rail bodies, allowing for "Single Action" locking, and preventing the fence from deflective drifts during cutting. With the fence locked in place, the accuracy of the fence position remains within 0.02mm (0.0008"!).
The BIG EYE Rip Fence System also features a Micro-adjustment knob for extremely fine fence positioning with ease.
To achieve your streamline repetitive cutting tasks of various sizes, the BIG EYE Rip Fence System comes with four (4) built-in Flip Position Stops for your quick and comfortable operations.
The BIG EYE Rip Fence System introduces a very special scale viewer: The K9 Crystal Glass Window, boasting an impressive light transmittance of up to 92% and exceptional hardness, ensuring minimal visual errors (parallax) when reading measurements, offering superior durability and resistance to wear.
As a member of Alpha Table Saw Family, the HW110S table saw definitely comes with the most popular COMPASS MG-36Pro Miter Gauge.
The unique structure of MG-36Pro ensures positive angle setting accuracy as high as 0.1 degree without need of adjustment.
Every part of the body and fence are made of T-6 aircraft-grade aluminum alloy and hardened steel, and each aluminum part is anodized with beautiful color and finish.
The standard 36" crosscut fence equipped with an accurate flip stop and locking knob can meet most of your cutting demands.
Most importantly, COMPASS MG-36Pro is uniquely designed with a Quick-Action positive angle setting device which allows you to set ±60°, ±45°, ±30°, ±22.5°, ±15°, and 0° positive angles with single handed operation.

Additionally, the fence plate can be conveniently slid to the front of the saw blade, providing cross-cut positioning without the risk of kickback.
The “GLIDER” blade guard with aerodynamic optimization improves the dust collection efficiency.
The special transparent blade guard provides visibility for aligning the saw blade with the intended line of cut. Both side barriers automatically adjust to the thickness of the advancing workpiece.
The patented "plug-in quick change" system allows you to change the blade guard and riving knife within a few seconds without the removal of the table insert.
Upper and lower dust collection is achieved simultaneously for clean and enjoyable cutting.
The motor comes with the true OUTPUT POWER* of 4 HP, which is absolutely powerful enough to provide long term performance even in the toughest conditions.
*Output Power: Output power is the power value that a motor uses to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. Because the current motor is not ideal, a small part of the electrical energy turns into other forms of energy (mainly heat energy) and lost due to the actual existence of coil resistance, rotating shaft friction and other factors in normal work. So the output power is always less than the input power.
The magnetic safety switch with thermal overload protection can prevent the motor from being damaged by overheating.
