Woodworking Machinery – Moulders
A wood shaper, usually just shaper in North America or spindle moulder or just moulder in Ireland, is a stationary woodworking machine in which a vertically oriented spindle drives cutter heads to mill profiles on wood stock. The wood being fed into a moulder is commonly referred to as either stock or blanks. The spindle may be raised and lowered relative to the shaper’s table, and rotates between 3,000 and 10,000 rpm, with stock running along a vertical fence.
Wood shaper cutter heads typically have three blades, and turn at 1/2 to 1/8th the speed of smaller, much less expensive two-bladed bits used on a hand-held wood router. Adapters are sold allowing a shaper to drive router bits, a compromise on several levels. As are router tables, cost-saving adaptations of hand-held routers mounted to comparatively light-duty dedicated work tables.
STANDARD VERSION

Comes complete with The SUVATOOL compound table.
The SUVATOOL compound table is Economical and safe
SUVATOOL makes it possible: economical and precise working procedures on all spindle shapers.
SUVATOOL is exceptionally easy to use: the workpiece is clamped to the compound table and is safely fed past the cutting tool by moving the table.
The compact moulder has been designed for small to medium-sized businesses with a diverse product range, benefits from a small footprint and a small price tag to match.
The new Profimat 30 moulder has an impressive list of credentials, taking many of its innovative features from larger, high-performance moulders in the Weinig portfolio and integrating them into a very flexible and powerful entry level moulder.
Engineered to the same exacting standards expected of Weinig, the Profimat 30 is constructed on a vibration-absorbing cast iron frame and has a base footprint of just 1.5 x 1.3 metres, allowing it to fit easily into the most challenging of workshops.
The Profimat 30 comes with four or five spindles and a choice of two motor packages – a standard package for most applications and an upgraded option when extra grunt is really needed. It also features a standard working height of 8-120mm and a standard working width of 13-230mm, allowing smaller workshops to take on a wide variety of moulding jobs. What is even more remarkable for a moulder of this size, is its optional ability to work to widths of 260mm – the width of a stair tread and, in many cases, a window board. It’s a feature very few machines of this size and this price range can match.
