Festo / Festool ATF 55 EB circular saw

The product shown is an ATF 55 EB plunge-cut circular saw manufactured by Festo, a brand now better known in the power tool industry as Festool. Originally founded in Germany in 1925 by Albert Fezer and Gottlieb Stoll, the company has a long-standing reputation for high-end, precision woodworking tools.

Historically, the power tool division operated under the Festo name before being rebranded to Festool in 2000 to distinguish its specialized tool line from Festo's extensive industrial automation business. Most Festool products are manufactured in Germany, primarily at their facility in Neidlingen, though some production also takes place in other European locations like the Czech Republic. The brand remains under the ownership of the TTS Tooltechnic Systems group, a family-owned holding company based in Wendlingen am Neckar, Germany, which continues to uphold the brand's legacy of quality and innovation in the professional tool market.
