Product Description

The Hoffmann jointing system:

  • Because of the precise double dovetail shape and the exact routed dovetail slots, the jointed parts are drawn together to form an accurate, secure and permanent joint. For the ideal strength and tension in the joint, the setting of the router cutter must be carefully made.
  • The jointed work-pieces are precisely and permanently drawn together, due to the shape and accuracy of the double dovetail key.

The optimal tension in the joint is achieved by precise setting of the router cutter:

Working with the Hoffmann fence system.

Dovetail slots can be routered in the Work-piece in various positions. These positions are determined by moving the fence plate (1) forwards and back. When the fence is locked in place, an exact position is achieved in both the left and right-hand work-pieces. When making butt joints or various angles, the butt stop (2) is used. This is set (L&R) reading the scale tape in the bed of the machine. This also applies to curved work-pieces.

The X-18 machine is fitted, as standard, with 45°-fence plate (1) and a 90°-butt-stop fence (2). By sliding the fence plate forwards and back various router positions can be selected. Using the 45°- fence plate exact positions can be routed in left and right-hand 45° mitre cuts, with the fence set in one position. The work-piece maximum width dimensions are limited to 120mm.

All work-pieces which are greater than 120mm in width, or of different angles or are curved, can be processed on the machine using the 90°- butt stop. To use the butt-stop, first remove the 45°-fence plate from the machine. When working left and right work-pieces the butt-stop is positioned on the machine table either to the left or right and set in its exact position by reading the scale tape in the bed of the machine.

The position of the router slot in the work-piece is determined by the operator and is dependent on the profile shape, thickness and application.
