1036-sprueheinrichtung (2).png

The newly developed overhead saw guard and under table extraction system deliver perfect extraction results. The overhead saw guard with its distinctive design is easily adjustable in height over linear guides. The dust and shavings are sucked from the saw guard into the extraction pipe via a short hose. The below table extraction system encloses the entire saw unit. In terms of extraction technology, the chip duct is perfectly shaped, and an optimised chip fl ow from the scoring unit also ensures absolutely perfect extraction results.

1967089-oberschutzhaube-kappa450.png

The maintenance free linear laser is mounted to the overhead saw guard and can be adjusted to any position. The easily visible cutting marker makes it easier to trim or cut along cracked wood.

1966261-laser-schnittfugenanzeige-kappa450.png

» Table scale as standard
» Fine adjustment as standard
» Option electronic digital display for standard rip fence

The rip fence is guided smoothly, almost hovering, over the round bar guide on the sliding table saw. The single-hand quick release and the fine adjustment guarantee a fast and precise adjustment of the rip fence to the desired dimension! The aluminium fence can be adjusted for better workpiece infeed or brought into a face down position when machining narrow workpieces with a tilted saw blade.

1967147-parallelanschlag.png

No time wasted trying to find the correct angle and one hundred percent precision in adjustment and positioning, without any reading errors, are just some of the advantages of the precision mitre index system. High-precision rest points allow the dimensionally accurate Creation of polygons such as 5.625° (32 corner), 11.25° (16 corner), 22.5° (octagon). Additional rest points at 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 40° and 45° can be selected as well as push and thrust. Each resting point is equipped with a length compensation. The high-precision degree raster index System is set at the factory and each resting point can be individually be fine-tuned. That shapely adapted to the machine design degree grid index system boosts your productivity into a unique price-performance ratio.

1876637-gradraster-indexsystem.png

The 8x ball bearings, integrated guide rollers and bearings of the outrigger table ensure an incredibly smooth operation upon maximum loading capacity. The support rail is moved along an “X-Roll” guiding system and is fast and fine-adjustable. The LED display enables you to set the required angle to one tenth of a degree. The fence can be tilted to any position between -45° and +45° and guarantees precise mitre cuts.

1968508-auslegertisch-Xroll.png

The crosscut fence on the outrigger table can be easily and quickly tilted variably from zero to 45°. The large dimensioned, ergonomic clamping lever can be used at every angle.

1937-arretierhebel (2).png

Infinite adjustment range –46 bis +46°. The LED display enables you to set the required angle to one tenth of a degree. Mitre length compensation is done via the vernier scale with the standard fence, with the CNC crosscut fence the length compensation is automatic.

1968524-parallelogramm-auslegertisch-kappa450.png
The new full surface and magnetic mounted supports on the outrigger table offer an increased support surface and guarantees a safe grip and a stable support for the processing of smaller workpieces.
1942-auflage-auslegertisch.png
At last: quick, comfortable and effortless, removal and installation of your outrigger table with the help of the transport and mounting unit. Another positive aspect: your outrigger can be conveniently stored away!
1074-montagewagen.png

The telescopic fence enables crosscuts of up to 3200 mm. Top class engineering and ease of use are features which are a part of the standard equipment. The scale inclined towards the operating side and the read-out lens on the fence stop ensure precise settings.

1967138-ausleger-ablänganschlag.png

On request, we will equip your Format4 with the digital telescopic fence. Below, you see the cleverly integrated electronic digital scale with values correct to 0.1 millimeter. Additional functions, for example the setting of successive measurements, make your daily working life easier.

kappa 450

Using a knob for quick adjustment, you can adjust the cutting height and cutting angle. A push button is available for the fi ne adjustment. Red LED display screens in the control panel show exact adjustment values. When the blade angle is tilted the height setting is compensated with the LED display showing the exact blade height.

1966086-powerdrive-kappa450.png

The rip fence can be fitted with an electronic digital display. The perfect integration of the electronic unit allows you to turn the display around 90°, so the values can be clearly seen and read from the operating area. Additional functions such as the input of incremental measurements make your daily working life easier. Further highlights:

  • Brightly illuminated red LED display facilitates the reading of values
  • No batteries are required as it is directly connected to the machine’s power supply
  • Recognises automatically whether the fence is in the vertical or horizontal position
  • Measurement compensation of the saw blade tooth width

Control systems
kappa 450 x-motion: 10" touchscreen

The central operating unit with touch screen provides ergonomic and intuitive control of all the machine's axes. The in-house software with graphical user interface, a multitude of programs, a USB interface and the prepared network connection make work easier and guarantee efficiency and productivity. The USB interface for importing and exporting data is prepared for network connection and remote maintenance.

1885602-kappa550-smartouch.png

All processing phases can be carried out quickly, efficiently and centrally as a result of the integration of the Format4 cutting optimisation system into the machine and operating concept. Training is not necessary as the user interface is intuitive, clear and easy to use.

988-ardis.png

Not only does the label printer enable the workpieces to be labeled correctly, it also enables a logical post-processing. For example, programs for successive work processes on CNC machines and edgebanders will be imported from the barcode scanner. Save valuable production time with the label printer and increase productivity, quality and as a result, your profit.

1967030-etikettendrucker.png

The scoring unit blade width and height adapt automatically to the stored tool information and also to the respective teeth width of the main saw blade. Any changes to these standard scoring settings can be saved and retrieved when using the same tool in the future.

1969096-vorritzsaegeaggregat-control.png

Removing the scoring blade when using large diameter saw blades is no longer necessary! The new Format4 parks the scoring blade at the touch of a button, leaving enough space for a large diameter blade, and in doing so, saves valuable production time. The park position also protects the scoring unit from dirt and resin build-up.

920-vorritzerparkposition.png

The rip fence is positioned by a motor and runs via a dust-free integrated ball spindle in the saw table. Fence positioning is accurate to 0.1 mm, this combined with fast positioning speed and that the saw blade height and tilt can be adjusted simultaneously, ensures precision and significant reduction in working time.

  • Automatic measurement correction when the rip fence is laid flat
  • Rip fence park position
  • No collision possible with the saw blade due to the coordination of the tool database by the positioning control
  • The rip fence can be swung away at any point along the full rip capacity
1969161-positionierung-parallelanschlag-kappa450.png

The digital angle and length compensation module "digi-compensation plus" for "X-Roll" or the outrigger table parallelogram, compensate any length deviations occuring during angle adjustment of the crosscut fence. The direct communication with the controls, also enables it to compensate the fence position of the crosscut stop to the width of the tooth and the tilt of the saw blade. This ensures that you always get an exact measurement without any recalibration when using different saw blades.

1493-digicompensation.png

x-motion models can be equipped with the electronic crosscut fence. The controlled crosscut fence can be used on both sides of the outrigger and is equipped with two fence stops. The maximum adjustable length measures 3400 mm. The extendable component can be removed to save space. The length compensation takes place automatically depending on the angle set.


» Electronic crosscut fence with 2 crosscut stops and extendable to a maximum of 3400 mm
» Automatic angle-length compensation
