Sliding cutting machine

Abstract

A sliding cutting machine (1) includes: at least one slide bar (51) having an elongated shape; a slide base (17) slidably mounted on the at least one slide bar (51); and a cutting-machine main body (10) mounted on the slide base (17) such that it is movable in an up-down direction relative to the slide base (17). The cutting-machine main body (10) includes: an output shaft (27) that extends in an axial direction orthogonal to an extension direction of the at least one slide bar (51) and on which a cutting tool (11) is mounted; and an electric motor (21) disposed between the cutting tool (11) and the at least one slide bar (51), as viewed along the extension direction of the at least one slide bar (51), while the output shaft (27) is rotating and the cutting tool (11) is vertical.
