Product design of a crosscut saw

In close cooperation with Metabo, various designs, variants and models were created, which ultimately resulted in sophisticated crosscut saws. The results combine sophisticated design with functionality and set standards in ergonomics and handling.

KGS 305

From sketch to finished tool

The early sketches gave form to a mature product that combines functionality and robustness. The crosscut saw impresses with its stable construction, precise guidance, and clear design. Practical details such as ergonomic controls and a well-thought-out design make it a reliable tool for professional use.

The small version

In addition to the main model, a smaller version of the crosscut saw was also developed. It transfers the clear design language to a compact format, making it particularly handy and versatile.

To adjust the tilt angle, press the red lever to unlock, tilt the saw to the desired position, then release the lever to lock it in place.
Full Range Cutting, Compact form Factor
Precision and versatility in a transportable body. Fine-tune every cut from straight to complex angles. The quick-release red lever ensures fast, accurate adjustments, while the streamlined design keeps handling effortless and space use minimal.

Design

Variation 1

The first design features flowing lines and a closed casing. The modern design appears compact and dynamic, visually elevating the saw to a new level.

Design

Variation 2

The second design features a clear, functional shape with accentuated mechanics and robust proportions. The focus is on ergonomics and usability, giving the saw a classic industrial look.

Varianten

Refinement through diversity

After the initial design phase, several variants were developed and refined in 3D models. This allowed different approaches to be visualized and evaluated together with the customer. This process served to refine the design in a targeted manner and work out the best solution.

Communication media

Every aspect documented​

Instruction manuals are essential tools that help people all over the world understand and use products safely, efficiently, and with confidence. A well written manual bridges the gap between design and user experience, turning complex systems or products into something approachable and easy to master.
