Outstanding stability and long-lasting precision

4 trapezoidal spindles guarantee exact adjustment precision and ensure maximum thicknessing bed load.

Longitudinal guides integrated into the side of the machine chassis absorb the pressure that is put on the outfeed side and ensure that the thicknessing table is guided with an accuracy of a tenth of a millimetre.

Intuitive changeover concept

The tried and tested Format4 operating concept reduces the effort in changing from planing to thicknessing to a minimum.

The intuitive table clamping system makes it possible to synchronously lock and open the planing tables with a twist of the hand, industrial springs assist in the opening.

Planing fence system

A masterpiece of stability, precision and space saving design - the innovative parallelogramm Format4 planing fence system design allows you to be able to position your machine directly next to the workshop wall, without restricting the planing width.

The planer fence can be tilted to any position between 90°–45°, the planer fence will always remain flush with the planing table.

Planer guard

Maximum operational safety and an unprecedented ease of use.

The space saving planer guard integrated into the machine chassis also stabilises the workpiece when planing and bevelling the narrow edge.

Continuous speeds

Regardless of the type of wood and grain, the variable feed speed of between 4-16m/min always guarantees a perfect thicknessing result.
