Felder KF 700 Saw/Shaper FAQs
What is the Felder KF 700 Saw/Shaper?
The Felder KF 700 Saw/Shaper is a **combined woodworking machine** that integrates a **precision panel saw** with a **tilting spindle shaper (moulder)**, enabling both high-quality cutting and profile shaping of solid wood and panel materials in one unit. It is designed for professional workshops and furniture makers. ([felder-group.com](https://www.felder-group.com/en-us/products/saw-shapers-c1950/saw-shaper-kf-700-p144098?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
What primary woodworking operations can the KF 700 perform?
The machine performs **panel sawing (ripping, crosscutting, mitre cutting)** and **spindle shaping (moulding)** with a tilting spindle, covering essential operations used in furniture component manufacturing and general woodworking. ([felder-group.com](https://www.felder-group.com/en-us/products/saw-shapers-c1950/saw-shaper-kf-700-p144098?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
How does combining a saw and shaper benefit a workshop?
By integrating both functions in a single machine, the KF 700 saves floor space and reduces the need to move workpieces between separate machines, improving workflow and accuracy for furniture parts that require both sawing and profile shaping. ([felder-group.com](https://www.felder-group.com/en-us/products/saw-shapers-c1950/saw-shaper-kf-700-p144098?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
What sizes of panels and boards can the KF 700 handle?
The sliding table saw supports long panels and boards — with cutting lengths typically ranging **from ~2050 mm to ~2500 mm** and rip capacities up to around **1250 mm** — making it suitable for most sheet goods and solid components used in cabinetry and furniture production. ([centexautomation.net](https://www.centexautomation.net/products/felder-kf-700-saw-shaper?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
What is the saw’s cutting height and angle range?
The circular saw section delivers a **cutting height around 104 mm** with typical blade diameters and tilts from **90° down to 45°**, allowing bevel and angled cuts used in case components and frame work. ([centexautomation.net](https://www.centexautomation.net/products/felder-kf-700-saw-shaper?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
How does the shaper (spindle) function operate?
The shaper uses a **tilting spindle moulder head** with variable speeds (e.g., 3500, 6500, 8000, 10000 rpm) that can be angled for profile shaping, edge moulding, and decorative work — expanding capability beyond straight cuts. ([centexautomation.net](https://www.centexautomation.net/products/felder-kf-700-saw-shaper?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
Can the shaper tooling be changed quickly?
Yes. The KF 700’s spindle accepts **quick-change tooling** with common shaper cutter diameters (e.g., 30, 32, 35, 40, 50 mm), enabling fast transitions between profiles or moulds during production. ([felder-group.com](https://www.felder-group.com/en-us/products/saw-shapers-c1950/saw-shaper-kf-700-p144098?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
What guiding system does the sliding table use?
The sliding table runs on Felder’s **X-Roll precision guiding system**, which is maintenance-free and designed to deliver smooth, accurate motion with high load capacity — critical for precise panel cuts. ([felder-group.com](https://www.felder-group.com/en-us/products/saw-shapers-c1950/saw-shaper-kf-700-p144098?utm_source=chatgpt.com))

([centexautomation.net](https://www.centexautomation.net/products/felder-kf-700-saw-shaper?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
Does the machine support dado and groove cutting?
Yes. With appropriate dado tooling, the saw section can cut **wide grooves or dados** for joinery or panel join execution in furniture components. ([centexautomation.net](https://www.centexautomation.net/products/felder-kf-700-saw-shaper?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
What extraction connections are included?
Standard dust extraction ports on both the **saw and shaper areas** allow connection to a shop dust collection system, promoting a cleaner work environment and improved visibility during cutting and shaping. ([felder-group.com](https://www.felder-group.com/en-us/products/saw-shapers-c1950/saw-shaper-kf-700-p144098?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
Can a power feeder be added?
Yes. A **power feeder** can be mounted (often with a tilt-away bracket) to the sliding table saw section to ensure consistent feed rate, improved cut quality, and increased safety during panel cutting. ([centexautomation.net](https://www.centexautomation.net/products/felder-kf-700-saw-shaper?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
How does the KF 700 improve production workflow?
By combining panel sawing and profile shaping in one machine with a precision sliding table, the KF 700 reduces part handling and setup time — enabling faster turnaround on furniture carcasses, frames, and component profiles. ([felder-group.com](https://www.felder-group.com/en-us/products/saw-shapers-c1950/saw-shaper-kf-700-p144098?utm_source=chatgpt.com))
