MFT/3 Guide Plate For Stationary Edge Banding

MFT/3 guide plate for Conturo edge bander is a Festool guide plate set designed for use with the KA 65 table insert FJ500366, so the Conturo can run on a stable, consistent support surface during stationary edge banding work. These guide plates create a dedicated bearing surface around the table insert, which helps the edgebander track predictably as you move parts across the table. The guide plates are supplied as a 15 pack, so a shop can outfit or refresh multiple guide locations on an MFT/3 or similar work setup configured around the KA 65 table insert. By matching the table insert specification, the plates keep the working surface layout consistent from job to job, which supports repeatable handling when running edges on cabinets, shelves, or panels.

Guide Plate Details That Support Daily Work

• Festool guide plates for KA 65 table insert FJ500366 tie directly into the Conturo edge bander system, so the plates match the opening and layout intended for stationary edge banding use on that insert.
• The design as guide plates for the KA 65 table focuses the contact area around the insert, which helps the machine glide along a predictable path as parts are slid past the bander during edge banding passes.
• These plates create a defined low friction surface area for stationary edge banding application, so panels move more smoothly across the table while you maintain feed pressure at the bander.
• The low friction working face reduces drag against the workpiece during stationary passes, which can help maintain a steadier feed rate as you guide edges over the Conturo.
• Packing as a box of 15 plates means shops running a KA 65 table insert can stock enough pieces for setup changes or for replacing worn guide locations while still keeping the table layout consistent.

Guide Plate Fit For KA 65 Table Insert

The guide plates are specified for the KA 65 table insert FJ500366, so they are dimensioned for that particular opening and support area on the table surface. Matching the insert keeps the guide surfaces aligned with the Conturo edge bander position, which matters when you are relying on the table to carry the weight of longer panels. Because the plates are made as a dedicated set for the KA 65 table insert rather than a general-purpose pad, the working surface around the Conturo stays uniform, which supports more controlled panel movement during stationary edge banding tasks.

Using KA 65 Guide Plates In Shop Setups

Where These Festool Guide Plates Are Applied

Festool guide plates for KA 65 table are used around the KA 65 table insert FJ500366 to support the Conturo edge bander in a fixed position while you move work across the table. In this stationary edge banding setup, the plates form the immediate working field around the insert opening, giving the workpiece a continuous surface as it passes the bander. Placing the guide plates at the table insert concentrates support exactly where the panel makes contact during edging, which is helpful on narrow cabinet parts or shelving where every bit of support around the edge bander matters for control. Because the plates are matched to the KA 65 table insert, they integrate into that work area without changing the reference position of the edge bander during normal operation.

Why These Guide Plates Matter For Repeatable Results

The guide plates provide low friction surface area for stationary edge banding application, which helps panels slide smoothly past the Conturo so you can hold steady feed pressure without fighting table drag. That smoother movement helps keep the edge banding step more predictable from part to part, which is important when you are running multiple components for a cabinet or run of shelving. By using plates designed specifically as guide plates for the KA 65 table, the contact surface around the table insert FJ500366 remains consistent in height and layout, supporting repeatable handling whenever you return to the same station. The box of 15 plates gives enough units to distribute wear across multiple positions on the table, so high-use spots can be refreshed while maintaining the same style of low friction surface in the working area.
