With a 120 mm diameter, 4 or 6 knife Felder quick change system with self aligning knives, Format-4 has taken planing to a new dimension.

4 or 6 knife cutterblock, Quick and effortless knife change, Self-setting knives, therefore high accuracy when being changed, No resinous residue on the clamping screws, Extremely quiet operation due to the enclosed design, Standard or Tersa knife systems are also offered, Cost saving thanks to low price of planer blades

The jointer fence may be tilted to any degree between 90° to 45°. There are positive-stops at the 90° and 45° positions.

Precise and comfortable quick adjustment of cutting depth from the operator side of the infeed table.

The cutting depth can be adjusted continuously to up to 3/10” (8 mm). The magnifying glass guarantees accurate reading of the scale.

It is comfortable and quick to change from jointing to planing on your machine. Tension springs are used to facilitate lifting of both jointer tables.

Due to its extremely good design and large dimension, the chip extraction hood is very efficient.

4 Spindles with trapezoidal threads guarantee precise adjustment and allow the heaviest loads on the planer table. The table height adjustment guideways (A + B) also stabilize the table against lateral movement particularly in the outfeed ­direction.

2 spring loaded pressure bars prevent “fluttering” of very thin workpieces during planing.

The optional rubber infeed and outfeed rollers are the perfect solution when working with sensitive material, jobs requiring minimal stock removal, very thin or different thickness in workpieces.
On request we can deliver a spring loaded, segmented infeed pressure bar combined with infeed rubber roller for simultaneous processing of material of varying thickness.

Turn the control switch for quick adjustment or fine adjustment is done with the push of a button. The LED display clearly shows the measurement.

Enter required dimension, press start and the planer table will move accurately to the required position. Required and actual values are shown on LED displays. Further functions: incremental function, 4 programmable planer table positions.

Precise adjustment. This is obtained with the patented jointer table adjusting system that works in positive union with lateral prismatic guide ways.
