Hoffman Dovetail Joint System
(9 Products)
The Hoffmann Dovetail Joining System is a unique way of efficiently joining wood and wood related materials like MDF, plywood, particle board, etc. Most commonly, the system is used for all types of miter joints, on anything from small, applied moulding to mitered cabinet doors, base frames and furniture components. Other applications include difficult to assemble compound miter joints, as found on crown moulding around the top of cabinets, on custom store fixtures and even casket lids. Square or butt-joints are another field of application, from face-frame assembly to trim carpentry (plinth or corner block-to-casing joint). All in all, the applications are as different and numerous as the customers, from small one-man custom shops to large furniture factories, from shutter manufacturers to architectural millwork shops, from stair builders to yacht outfitters to outdoor furniture manufacturers.
The heart of the system is the Hoffmann Dovetail Key (or "Hoffmann Schwalbe" in German), a fastener in the shape of a double dovetail.

W1031000 The new Hoffmann MU3 routing machine for dovetail joints (replaces the MU2) has many new standard features and a new ergonomic design, with a redesigned bridge, fine router adjustment and optional digital positioning of the centre fence and routing depth. it's an extremely versatile and effective way of jointing wood components. The dovetail system has been used for over 10 years worldwide and is now recognised as a high quality durable joint. The patented dovetail key provides the ideal joint because the precise double dovetail shape, and the exact matching slot produced on the machines means the two pieces of timber are accurately and precisely drawn together to form a secure and permanent joint. Applications include mitre joints on architraving, door linnings, picture frames, window beading, plinths etc. It can also be used in straight but joints for general furniture, drawer boxes, kitchen cabinet face frames etc. New features: Extended routing depth up to 95mm material thickness up to 140 / 170mm Digital display (option) for routing position and routing depth Table extension exactly to customers needs Fence elevation for high and narrow profiles Cornice-fences and many more accessories.

The Hoffmann PP2 dovetail routing machine is a free standing production unit. This model is equipped with two high-speed router motors, to process two parts simultaneously. The supplied 45 degree fence plate, which is guided in a keyway in the machine table, is used to accurately position the material on the table. The locations of the dovetail slots for the Hoffmann Keys are adjusted by simply moving this fence plate. The machine is equipped with a pneumatic foot pedal. Upon pressing the foot pedal, the routing sequence is initiated: pneumatic clamps secures workpieces on machine table router heads advance until the pre-set height position is reached router heads return to base position pneumatic clamps releases workpieces Output is approx. 16 routing strokes per minute, which translates into 4 completely processed rectangular frames. These numbers include material handling, but obviously depend on routing depth, feed speed, material flow and operator performance as well. Flow control valves on the main pneumatic cylinder allow the operator to adjust the upward and downward feed rate independently, depending on the material being processed. A heavy-duty cast aluminum table provides a large work surface. The steel cabinet has a 4" diameter dust collection port on its backside for dust free operation. The supplied router bits are solid tungsten carbide, made to exacting specifications. Depending on the routing depth and the material to be routed, the useable cutter life is approx. 10,000 strokes. Every machine is shipped with a tool kit and set-up jig, which allows a router bit change in only minutes. Diamond cutters are also available.

Hoffmann Dovetail Jointer MS35SF (Combination Double-Mitre-Saw, and routing unit the latest generation of this particular mitre saw) The MS35SF helps to improve the quality of the joint, by cutting and routing each joint simultaneously. Thereby reducing handling time and increasing production. Description Pneumatically operated with 2no. saw-motor units and 2no additional router-motor units. Simultaneous production of two exact mitre cuts followed by routing of either one or two dovetail slots in each side of the cut mitres. Operating Options. to function only as a double-mitre-saw. to function as a double-mitre-saw and dovetail router. two dovetail positions position one (single dovetail) position two (single dovetail) All options are selected by the switch positions on the control panel. Changes of the dovetail slot, within the mitre cut are made manually. Digital clocks on each adjustment position determine exact positions. Thereby simplifying changes and reducing set-up time. Machine construction. Table aluminium-profile table. Machine stand Solid aluminium castings, RHS steel frame with sheet steel covers. Operation Pneumatic, by dual hand Siemans SPS control panel.

After positioning the square end of the profile into the machine and operating the dual-hand control, the material is clamped and then cut from above in an exact 45 degrees mitre. The tables open, to allow the router units to cut one or two router slots in the cut face of the profile. The profile is then passed through the machine to a fence-stop (digitally positioned), the machine is again activated, material clamped, double saw cuts made, router slots cut and material released. Each cycle of the machine produces a section with a mitre on each end with router slots made for Hoffmann Keys.Lead Time: 7 Days€ Enquire -

Both positions are shown on separate digital displays for accuracy and repeatability. With the operator controlling the speed of all machine movements, output is greatly depended on material flow, handling and operator performance. On its backside, the large heavy-duty cast aluminum machine base has a 2" diameter dust collection port to connect a shop vacuum for dust free operation. The supplied router bit is solid tungsten carbide, made to exacting specifications. Depending on the routing depth and the material to be routed, the useable cutter life is approx. 10,000 strokes, often times even more.
