The D 963, the largest from the thicknessing range from the FELDER programme

At first glance the machine design demonstrates the core competencies of the Felder D 963: strength, stability and ease of use at the highest level. This thicknesser with a thickness planing width of 630 mm has been optimised for high performance and therefore it is a powerhouse in performance and precision. Innovative controls, large and heavy precision components show first class workmanship through maximum precision and durability. The Felder D 963 comprises approved Felder components such as the massive thicknesser table, the precise setting accuracy and the four trapezoidal spindles. These components have been extended with new, innovative developments, such as the Silent-Power® spiral cutterblock which provides an excellent thickness planing result. Professional users in trade, commerce and industry benefit from perfect thickness planing results at maximum stress.

When aiming for gentle and careful workpiece processing, the thicknesser with 630 mm planing width has nevertheless remained a powerhouse in terms of performance and precision. Large-sized, heavy-duty precision components convince with first-class workmanship, maximum precision and durability. Proven Felder system components such as the massive thicknesser table and the four trapezoid threaded spindles combine the D 963 into a completely new dimension of the quality of the planing result.

The "Digi-Drive" control guarantees maximum ease of use: enter the desired dimension, press start and the thicknesser table adjusts exactly to the position you require. LED displays for the required and actual value. Additional functions: incremental adjustments, 4 programmable thicknessing table positions. Professional machine operators from small and big workshops all the way through to industry profit from perfect jointing results.

On the basis of the legendary spiral blade cutterblock Silent-Power®, a special cutting geometry has been developed which guarantees perfect planing results for plastics. The rubberised in- and outfeed rollers allow gentle workpiece transport of particularly sensitive surfaces. Also, the adjusted feed speed from 2 to 8 m/min and the maximum chip removal of 3 mm were specially designed to meet the high demands of modern plastics processing.
