Abstract: A machine table (16) on which a saw blade (10) is movable in a direction of movement (A) which essentially conforms to the longitudinal extension of the saw blade is provided with a first measuring station (22) for measuring the saw blade (10) in a measuring plane (B) perpendicular to the direction of movement (A) thereof. The machine table (16) furthermore supports a second measuring station (28) for scanning an edge (14) of the saw blade (10) in the plane thereof transversely of the direction of movement (A) as well as a rolling station (26) which comprises first and second rollers (34, 36) for changing the tension profile of the saw blade (10) and the curvature of the edge (14) thereof. The second roller (36) is pivotably adjustable with respect to the first roller (34) about a pivot axis (C) which intersects the axes of rotation (D1, D2) of the two rollers (34, 36) approximately at right angles and thereby adapted to be positioned obliquely for correcting distortions of the saw blade (10).
