    kappa550_parallelanscchlag-fuer-formatschiebetische.png

    One of the valuable accessories in daily use on woodworking machines is the patented double mitre gauge from Format4. It enables double mitre cuts on workpieces of different widths at any angle. The input of the workpiece widths A, B and the input of the desired frame angle, is carried out on the integrated computer via the keypad. The resulting settings appear correct to within a tenth of a degree on the display. Just set the double mitre gauge at the calculated value and work away with a result of … pinpoint accuracy! The fence stop on the fence plates can be adjusted up to 1350 mm with the scale. Depending on the set angles, the length compensating vernier scale is available. This feature also enables you to set the exact workpiece length when making mitre cuts.

    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-kappa550-Auslegertisch-GradrasterIndexsystem.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.

    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.

    968-parallelogramm-auslegertisch.png

    The outrigger table can be swung out of the way with ease! No more time consuming, complicated assembling and removing of the outrigger table. The outrigger table swing away system ensures extreme ease of use and at the same time can provide you with extra working space when you need it. Back-friendly ergonomic work is also guaranteed.

    955-auslegerparken.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!

    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.

    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

    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.
