Strengths and benefits
- More freedom thanks to the battery. Get ready for smooth workflows and easier handling of the machine without a messy tangle of cables. You can dive straight in with just a few settings.
- Easy and convenient. Lightweight, slim design for comfy working. Perfectly matched cutters for the base opening stop you from tipping over while routing into the material. This lets you route safely and quickly without having to redo anything.
- Precise Routing results. You can fine-tune the height precisely in 0.1 mm increments. Having the cutter mounted directly on the spindle boosts run-out accuracy and gives you a tidy finish. The flush ball bearing attachment on the cutter keeps the height low and lets you route in rebates or from the stack of panels.
- Shallow draft. The flush ball bearing mount on the cutter keeps the height down to just 12 mm and makes it easy to route in rebates or from a stack of panels.
- Spot on depth adjustment. The routing depth can be adjusted accurately to 1/10 mm. The lock prevents the router table from moving during operation and is easy to operate.
- Cutter replacement in seconds. The router can be changed quickly and easily thanks to the spindle stop.
- Spot on work. The clear dust extraction attachment makes sure that routing shavings are sucked up properly. The spring-loaded ball bearing brake stops scorch marks from appearing on the surface.
- Brushless EC-TEC motor. Efficiency, power, low noise and minimal vibrations: it’s all possible thanks to the brushless EC-TEC motor with built-in motor management.
- Lightweight and handy. The sleek design and tilted position of the battery pack give you a perfect centre of gravity whether you're using it horizontally or vertically.
- Excellent true-running precision. With the OFK 500 series, the cutter is mounted straight onto the spindle. That ensures top-notch run-out accuracy and the best quality work.
- Mobile thanks to the battery. The battery pack built in to the router, makes for easy edge routing without all the cable mess.
- Workpiece protected. The hard-wearing base runner stops nasty scratches or dents on the workpiece and gives you smooth sliding on any surface.
- No tipping over. Smaller hole diameter in the base plate and matching cutters for perfect milling results without tipping.
- More room to move about. Cheers to the spring plate on the ball bearing brake, you’ve got more space to move when working without dust extraction.
- Speed control adapted to the material. Thanks to the MMC electronics, you can quickly tweak the speed to match the material you're working with, and it stays constant even under load. Plus, the motor's temperature monitoring helps ensure it lasts a long time.
- Festool 18 V Bluetooth® battery packs. When you use Bluetooth® battery packs, you can easily combine cordless edge routers with the extractor's remote switch – machine on, extractor on.
- Link to the Festool App. By connecting to the Festool app, you can check out various machine data, like the last location. You can also quickly find the right accessories and handy tips. Plus, you can carry out software updates or create a repair order if you need a service.
