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.
... Your decision for Felder, a risk-free decision
The solid cast iron cutterblock housing is built for heavy duty work. We can also provide rubber outfeed rollers as an option. The pressure beams combined with the rubber or segmented infeed roller serve to machine simultaneously workpieces of differing width.
The Felder system cutterblock has guaranteed perfect planing results for decades. Resin free locking screws and the self-setting knives make it possible to change the blade in less than 2 minutes. Time consuming adjustments and purchasing of expensive setting gauges are a thing of the past.
Exclusive for planer/thicknessers from the Felder Group. The Silent-Power® spiral cutterblock reduces noise emissions by more than half when planing. The continuous pulling cut ensures tear-free results when planing all types of wood. With this revolutionary new development from Format-4 you are obtaining all of the advantages of a spiral cutterblock at considerably lower operating, investment and adjustment costs. The advantages of the Silent-Power® cutterblock at a glance ...
A recommended option when planing with a small depth of cut, with very thin workpieces or workpieces with varying thicknesses.
Regardless of the type of wood and grain, the variable feed speed of between 4-16m/min always guarantees a perfect thicknessing result.
Optional integrated adjustable rollers are available for processing workpieces with high resin or moisture content.
The fully electrical “Power-Drive” thicknesser table control offers the most precise adjustment and repeat accuracy. With a twist of the knob, you can quickly adjust the thicknessing height, then fine-adjust using the button. An integrated LED-display displays the actual value.
Enter the required dimension, press Start and the thicknesser table will move precisely to the required position. Set and actual values are displayed on LED displays. Additional optional functions, such as incremental position and four programmable thicknesser table positions are available.
2 spring-loaded pressure bars prevent “fluttering” of very thin workpieces whilst thicknessing.
An optional 1150 mm adjustable height scissor table is available
When thicknessing several workpieces at once, the 570 mm long table extension with workpiece roller situated on the outfeed is of particular importance, making it easier to remove them once thicknessed.
Apply the lubricant via the wick from the tank onto the underside of the workpiece.
