EXPERT KNOWLEDGE - ROUTING TEMPLATES
DICTUM® Universal Guide Rail Set 710
The DICTUM Guide Rail Set 710 is the perfect addition for precise sawing and milling work. It offers a flexible solution for craftsmen, who need accurate and clean cuts or milled cuts. The set consists of sturdy guide rails that are suitable for both routers and circular saws. With a length of 710 mm, the set is ideal for small to medium-sized workpieces and can be easily expanded to handle larger jobs.
The guide rail is made from high-quality aluminium, which ensures a long service life and consistently high precision. The router template can be securely mounted to the workpiece using clamps via the slots (similar to a T-slot rail). The cross-connector supplied allows several rails to be joined together seamlessly. This allows the work area to be extended, whilst the connectors ensure that the rails are precisely aligned.
The DICTUM Guide Rail Set 710 is particularly easy to use. The guide rail can be positioned quickly and easily. In combination with the suitable accessories, a matching portable circular saw or router, you can achieve precise results, whether making rip cuts using the portable circular saw, mitres or cut-outs with the router.
Festool Routing Template MFS 700
The Festool MFS 700 routing template is a tool that enables precise routing across a wide range of applications. The MFS 700 is ideal for processing rectangular or circular cut-outs, for example when creating cut-outs in worktops or routing recesses in furniture fronts. It can also be used for more demanding tasks such as cutting recesses for joints or producing mitre joints.
Manufactured from high-quality aluminium, the MFS 700 offers a long service life as well as high stability combined with low weight. The template’s guide rail is equipped with a precision scale for millimetre-accurate adjustments. Thanks to its modular design, the template can be flexibly extended or shortened to optimally adapt to the task at hand.
One advantage of the MFS 700 is its ease of use. Thanks to the quick-clamping system, the rails can be fitted or adjusted in no time. The routing template can be securely fixed to the workpiece via a groove using Festool guide rail clamps or lever clamps. This ensures clean routing results without slipping. When used in combination with a router, router bit and copying ring, the template enables precise routing for a wide range of materials, from solid wood and wood-based panels to plastics.
Festool APS 900/2
The APS worktop template enables precise, flush 90° corner connections in wooden worktops and wood-based panels. Thanks to its integrated clamping system, the template can be securely fixed in place and easily adjusted, ensuring accurate results even when the router passes several times along a single groove. Manufactured from robust aluminium, the routing template is ideal for corner and worktop joints.
With a fixed fence for panel depths of 600 and 650 mm, as well as an adjustable range of up to 900 mm, it offers flexible application options.
It also features two freely positionable routing templates for creating recesses for conventional fittings on the underside of panels.
Extension profiles can be used for panel depths greater than 900 mm, in order to expand the range of applications.
The template is designed for groove cutters with 14 mm diameter and copying rings with 30 mm diameter and
is especially recommended for the OF 2200 and OF 1400 routers.
Both the Festool MFS 700 routing template and the DICTUM 710 guide rail set offer innovative solutions for precise and efficient woodworking.
Whilst the MFS 700 stands out its versatility in routing applications, the DICTUM set enables flexible and precise guidance of routers and even portable circular saws.
Both tools are practical aids for anyone seeking the highest level of accuracy in their work or hobbies and who values precision.
If you want to join worktops professionally, or require a suitable tool on site, the Festool APS 900/2 is the right choice.
For producing cut-outs without the need for additional templates or for routing radii, the Festool routing template MFS 700 or the DICTUM Guide Rail Set 710 are excellent options.
