FP200 Back Panel Support Dovetail Machine

The FP200 is the automated companion to the FP100 for precision dovetail cutting on easel back supports. It processes the specialized dovetail slot at the top of each support—a step a straight cut cannot perform. The station follows FP100 blanking as a matched dovetail module when back-panel finishing is in scope, not as a turnkey full line on its own.
- Automated dovetail slotting replaces manual routing on high-volume easel-back SKUs.
- Throughput matched to FP100 blanking keeps the back-panel zone in rhythm.
- Modular factory expansion—scope backing stations separately from cut-and-join backbone.
- Factories paired with FP100 blanking
- Easel-back retail frame production
- Automated dovetail slot finishing
- Modular back-panel zones
- High-volume desktop frame lines
Architecture: Automated easel-back dovetail slotting
- FP100 blanks enter the dovetail station at matched dimensions.
- The cutter descends to form the dovetail slot at the support top.
- Debris is cleared and the finished support is discharged.
- Supports proceed to frame assembly or packaging.
| Configuration | Builds a modular back-panel zone with FP100 |
| Air Pressure | 6–8 MPa |
| Core Process | Easel-back dovetail slot cutting |
| Operating Mode | Automated |
| Dimension | FP200 | Back Panel Support Blanking Saw |
|---|---|---|
| Use case | Factories paired with FP100 requiring automated dovetail slot cutting on support ends | Mid-to-large frame factories cutting easel back support blanks in-house |
| Throughput | Very high (matched to blanking speed) | Very high (inline blank cutting) |
| Automation level | Automated slot cutting | Automated blanking |
| Recommended daily output | 5,000+ supports/day | 5,000+ supports/day |
Which part of the support does the dovetail machine process?
It cuts the specialized dovetail slot at the top of the easel support—a step a straight cut cannot perform.
How automated is the workflow?
Follows FP100 blanking as a matched dovetail station—modular back-panel expansion when backing finishing is in scope.
What maintenance matters most?
Clear slot debris daily and maintain 6–8 MPa air supply so the cutter descends cleanly on every cycle.
Can FP200 operate without FP100?
No—the dovetail station is designed to follow FP100 blanking with matched dimensions and throughput. Both form the modular back-panel zone.
When should a factory add FP200?
Add when easel-back SKU volume and in-house back finishing justify dedicated stations after NC/NN cut-and-join automation is already in place.
