KAPEX KS 88: Practical tough and effective

 
   
  

The new KAPEX KS 88 features all essential assets from the advanced KAPEX KS 120 design. With benefits such as, fast accurate cuts, the low weight for easy transportation, MMC electronics with smooth start up and much more. The KS 88 is ideal for robust applications and is also quick and accurate complete with applied hands-on functions. It is particularly suited to working on construction sites or where change of location is a prerequisite.

The new KAPEX KS 88 and the KS 120 are two sliding compound mitre saws with a single objective: the perfect cut. The impressive features and benefits of the KS 88 include: 
   
 
 FastFix saw blade changing system: Rapid blade changes with a convenient saw blade changing system that saves you time and money. 
 MMC Electronics: With variable speed pre-selection, smooth start-up, safety brake and overload protection the MMC electronics minimise working stress and adapt machine performance to the working material. 
 Rapid clamping: The tilt angle is easy to adjust from the front. Simply detach the quick-release clamp, set the angle and lock - it couldn't be easier... 
 88 mm cutting depth: The unique special cutting position on the KAPEX allows you to cut strip material with a maximum height of 88 mm quickly, safely and accurately.  
 Easy transportation: Transport safety device, clamp, cable holder, well designed hand grips and 20.7 kg in weight - the KAPEX is ideal for mobile applications. 
 Secure workpiece support surface: The large sliding quick-release fences allow the accurate positioning of workpieces in their 'original wall position' and the attachment of self-manufactured positioning supports. 
 Robust and stable: The KS 88 was designed for tough industrial applications. The large magnesium diecast base with rubber feet provides maximum stability. 
 Easy-to-read scales: The easy-to-read scales are abrasion-resistant, the pointer can also be adjusted. The rotary base has a 60° range and is adjusted via the convenient clamp lever.

KAPEX KS 88: quick, easy and so versatile

 
   
  
Definitive features come as standard: 
  
 Easy as 1, 2, 3 ... 
 
... due to the FastFix blade chaging system 
  
A expedient saw blade changing system encourages users to adapt the saw blade to the working material more often, saving time and costs! The KAPEX is equipped with the FastFix quick-change system to encourage you to use the appropriate saw blade for the material you need to cut. 
  
 More mobile ... 
 
... due to the lightweight, compact design 
  
The Kapex is designed for transportation between alternating locations. The transport safety device, clamp, cable holder and well-positioned hand grips make the machine easier to carry. The benefits of the compact design and twin-column guide are demonstrated at the set up site: components do not protrude or extend towards the rear of the machine. 
  
 Sophisticated overall concept ... 
 
... intelligent details for greater working comfort 
  
Ingenious detail solutions used on a day-to-day basis demonstrates how sophisticated and practical the machine concept is. Take a look for yourself: 
  
 MMC Electronics
Variable speed pre-selection, smooth start up, constant speed, overload protection and safety brake for extra safety and comfort.
 Trenching adjustment
When facing and grooving, simply swith the depth limiter on and adjust to the required cutting depth with a single turn.
      
 Base height = SYS 1
The KAPEX base is the same height as a SYSTAINER SYS 1, which can be used to support long workpieces.
 Flexible fences
The extra high sliding fences are secured by a quick release clamp. You can also detach them and add your own positioning supports.
