New Martin T12 Spindle Moulder

Short set-up times thanks to modern technology

The control technology of the new T12 compact shaper is just like on all other MARTIN machines: highly functional and easy to operate. The modern Touch-Screen control system is positioned ergonomically at eye-level and helps to reduce set-up times markedly. So the operator can, for example, comfortably adjust the cutting height via the touch-sensitive screen. Additional optional accessories can be added so that the ‘cutting depth (stop)’ and the ‘cut (infeed jaw)’ axes can be integrated into the controls as well, making the T12 a 3-axis shaper.

Small but powerful

The mechanical elements of the T12 are of very high quality and designed for durability. And even though the T12 seems to be fairly small and lightweight, the machine frame is a heavy compact compound construction. With a total weight of 950 kilograms, it offers the best possible foundation for every job.

Compact, correct, comfortable

The most outstanding feature of the T12’s fence is the sophisticated bilateral guidance system which allows a uniquely high degree of precision for a compact-class machine – it is capable of a repetition accuracy of ± 0.025 mm. For special moulding jobs, e.g. for curved mouldings, the fence can be removed very quickly and with ease, and then be remounted just as easily. Robust but very exact mechanical fittings make time-consuming re-adjustments unnecessary.

Individual solutions for your individual needs

With such a broad array of features even in the basic version, the T12 is the ideal entry level machine with premium qualities. Plus the many additional optional accessories can make the T12 a shaper for the most demanding applications and requirements – to mention just one of the many options, the ability to attain a continuous speed of 1,000 up to 12,000 revolutions/min.

The basic version comes with the tried-and-tested original MARTIN DornFix system but it can also be equipped with the HSK tool-free clamping system. The HSK 85 “PowerLock” the HSK 63F can also be added, which maks the T12 an ideal addition to a CNC machining centre.
