The optionally available, electrically driven scoring unit (Ø 120 mm) in combination with a Ø 350 mm main saw blade ensures tear-free cuts in coated panel materials.
Efficiency in every move: The tiltable saw unit with its precision double suspension not only guarantees exact angle and height adjustments, it also redefines efficiency. The support provided by solid, ball-bearing mounted outrigger tables (Professional and S models) leaves nothing to be desired in terms of stability and load-bearing surface.
Durability you can rely on: Invest in a secure future! The legendary "X-Roll" format sliding table - with its dust-proof guide system - is absolutely maintenance-free and ensures perfect woodworking for many years to come. It comes with a 10-year FELDER factory warranty! You also receive a 6-year factory warranty on the patented tilt segment "Easy-Glide". That's FELDER reliability that pays off.
Safety and cleanliness - without compromises: To ensure the best possible dust extraction and maximum work safety, the K 740 S is equipped with the innovative, swivelling FELDER overhead saw guard. You can focus on your work, while we take care of everything else.
The smart rip fence - precision to a tenth of a millimetre: Just one touch is all it takes: Guided by a high-precision linear guiding system with recirculating ball screw bearings, the rip fence moves quickly to the desired position with an accuracy of a tenth of a millimetre. For repeatable cutting results, saving time and minimising errors.
More than only wood - boundless variety of materials: Expand your range of machining options! On request, we can equip your K 740 S with continuously adjustable speed control and minimum quantity lubrication system. This allows you to process non-ferrous metals, plastics and composite materials with equal precision and perfection.
The new FELDER K 740 S x-motion: more than just a sliding table saw - it's your reliable partner in achieving outstanding results and efficient production. Now is the time to switch to this new dimension in woodworking!
