The furniture industry with modernised production techniques has set a standard that is almost unachievable for small joinery and carpentery shops. In order for smaller shops to remain competitive they must ensure that every workpiece is processed perfectly at every step of production. The FELDER FW 850 classic wide belt sander makes it affordable to take that next step into professional woodworking and it is this high quality standard configuration that particularly impresses.
Highlights:
Powerful combination aggregate with electro-pneumatic sanding shoe
Productive control panel control, precise grain equalisation
FELDER operating comfort: electrical height adjustment with digital display
Excellent results on veneered workpieces
Automatic inverter control of the feed speed
Feeding belt control, hand safety stop and stop to ensure that oversized pieces cannot be fed through, ensuring optimum operating safety
Vibration-free power transmission from the 7,5 hp sanding belt motor
The combination unit with a roller diameter of 125 mm is used for the calibration of solid wood. The electro-pneumatic sanding pad is lowered on to the workpiece at the exact correct height for the sanding process. This prevents veneered surfaces from being sanded through, at the front and rear.
Adjusting of the aggregates, the feed speed and sanding depth can be carried out quickly, simply and accurately all from the control panel. A particular highlight is the digital grain compensation which does not require the machine to be opened. Using a switch on the control panel the machine can be set to the correct sanding belt grain or set to sand using the sanding shoe.
The belt guidance system assesses the workpiece using a lightbeam and activates the electro-pneumatic belt guidance system, which adjusts the belt fowards and backwards.
The belt control system regulates the running of the belt with electronically guided photo cells.Should the belt be at risk of coming loose, the belt control system cuts the belt motor immediately.
Professional surface processing and small space requirements no longer pose a contradiction! Again, Felder has created a machine series that fits into any size workshop.
The continuously vulcanised feed belt guarantees maximum power transfer and durability. Feed speeds of 4 & 8 m/min always enable optimum adaptation to the material and the sanding grit. The speed can also be adjusted during the sanding process.
