The new F 45 ELMO: The legend lives on

F45 Machine

The new F 45 ELMO has been fundamentally redesigned. The result is a high-tech modular system, which handles even the most challenging technical requirements of the saw user. The low-reflection 12" colour LCD display with touch screenfunctionality is new. This display method makes for straightforward operation through a self-explanatory, graphics-oriented approach to control. The display shows 90% of the applications, thus cutting down on time spent navigating. The USB port for data exchange and backup is also new. A further innovation is the crosscut-mitre fence on the F 45 ELMO IV, which can be adjusted to any angle between 0 and 47° and has integral length compensation.

There are two versions of the F 45 ELMO with either three or four motorised axes (F 45 ELMO III and F 45 ELMO IV respectively). Each of these machines can be equipped with optional extras to meet your own individual requirements.

In 2007 the jury of the International Forum Design presented its iF gold award for outstanding product design to the F 45 ELMO.

WA 80 Specifications and Benefits

The reason the WA 80 has proved so popular, however, is not just the price. With its support for all common applications, its wealth of practical features leaves virtually nothing to be desired. In addition to the tried and tested features of an Altendorf, the WA 80 offers sophisticated extras such as motorised height adjustment and digital display of the saw blade tilt angle.

The drive belt can be changed simply by releasing the bracket, while the easy to access motor compartment has an interior light for better vision. The two colour variants are a further attraction - whether in grey or in green, the WA 80 is a surefire winner.
