Description

Features include:

• 6” wide feed chain with four staggered rows of hold down tires.
• Front adjusting handwheels with digital readouts for horizontal and vertical shaper and sander positions.
• AC inverter controlled variable speed for shaper, sanders, and feed featuring digital readouts for speed and load.
• Floating heads are optional which allow shaping and sanding of arched panels.
• The user friendly design makes setup and profile changeovers quick and easy.

Standard Operation

The model 410 Machine has one shaping station, two counter-rotating sanding stations and a six-inch-wide feed chain with four rows of hold-down wheels for exceptional part stability!

Applications include making every part for arched raised panel doors in small cabinet shops to being dedicated to one profile in larger factories.

• The “HANDS-OFF” method of arching panels and rails is safe and non-intimidating.
• The ability to “climb cut” drastically reduces reject parts, especially on arched rails.
• The feed rate can “follow” the shaper load, slowing down and speeding up as the cutter’s load varies.
• Digital counters show the shaper’s horizontal and vertical position, and the fence has five adjustable stop positions. Therefore, changing tooling normally takes only about two minutes because all settings can be pre-set.

As a result, a small shop making two to three tooling changes per day can usually save an hour of setup time each day which will more than pay for the cost of the machine.
