Although the trimming of vacuum formed mouldings can be a laborious and skilled process making it difficlut in a teaching environment this profile router has been specially developed for the trimming of mouldings with a thickness of up to 3mm. The machine is fitted with an electric motor powering a small 3.2mm carbide slot drill. The cutter is fully covered by a spring loaded guard, which also acts as a material clamp and a guide. The fence can be adjusted to either trim into the corner of a moulding or leave a small flange suitable for glueing or mounting.
The cutting process generates a small amount of swarf and we recommend that an extraction unit is connected to the port in the work table to remove this.
The design of the machine allows trimming from multiple faces, allowing items such as vehicle body shells with both bases and wheel arches to be fully trimmed quickly and accurately.
Replacement drill is also available separately.
