Chainsaw chain sharpening machines (reviews, cost): sharpened 2 chains in 10 minutes

Before working, the chainsaw or electric saw must have a good chain sharpening. Over time, the sharpness disappears and you have to sharpen it manually with a round, flat file or give it to the store for sharpening.

The round one is used to sharpen the working saw tooth, and the flat one is used to adjust the height of the tooth. This procedure is too long and ineffective.

To save time, there is such a device on sale - a chain sharpener. I'm tired of manually sharpening the chain, so I want to buy a machine. I read everything inside and out on the Internet. I studied all the reviews about the machines. I want to share with you and tell you about the best of them.

There are 2 types of machines in stores: manual and electric. I am interested in the second type. They are especially popular. The base is the frame on which the engine and the vice stand. The grinding disc is mounted on the motor shaft. You can easily set the correct sharpening angle. There are detailed instructions. There are only 2 buttons on the devices: incl. and off.

Despite its small size, the chain sharpening machine is a powerful unit. There is a special plastic shield to protect against sparks. The chain holds securely and firmly. Does not get warm during work. All consumables are available.

So, below I will list the best machines (according to reviews from Internet forums).

You can also earn money on the machine in the future - sharpen the chains for money. My friend does just that. He runs his own electrical shop and offers chain sharpening along with the sale.

Machine reviews: the best and cheapest

Soyuz TSS-60013 machine (220 W.). Rotational speed 7500 rpm. Not a noisy device, beautiful appearance, simple and clear settings. Inexpensive and sharpens perfectly. Price from 2520 RUR

Mobile and lightweight (2 kg.) With customization Whirlwind SZTs-200. Powerful device (200 W) with h. rotation 6000 rpm. Inexpensive compared to other machines. There are backlashes, needs work. Everything is easily customizable. There are different angles of sharpening of the chain (from 0-30 gr.). For household use, so as not to overpay, this machine is quite suitable.

Huter ECS-100 machine has more reviews. Lightweight and quiet device. Saw someone write that he imprisoned 2 chains at once in 10 minutes. Wire 2 meters. Power 100 W at 5200 rpm. The backlash is minimal. Minus: no backlight. It looks like a toy, but works like a professional device. I think I will choose this one.
