comatic MX48 Four Wheels Power Feeder Woodworking Automatic Feeder Eight-Speed

Need a feed that does not depend on who is pushing the board? The MX48 puts four rubber rollers on the stock instead of two, in Φ120 × W60 mm, with 25 mm of roller suspension underneath them. Eight speeds run from 3.5 to 32 m/min at 50 Hz and 3.5 to 34 m/min at 60 Hz, driven by a 1 HP motor. Feeder and stand weigh 27 + 33 kg net, and 132 sets load a 20' container.

Three things stop a woodworking shop once the spindle is running. One: the stock is pushed through by hand, so the feed rate depends on who is at the machine, with hands close to the cutter. Two: a single-speed feed suits nothing, because a soft board tears at a rate a dense one survives. Three: two rollers leave a short part free to pivot. The MX48 is built against all three.

It is the MX48 four-wheel wood feeder, the eight-speed power feeder used on end milling machines, shapers and other cabinet work. Four rubber rollers of Φ120 × W60 mm run on 25 mm of suspension, so a part is held on four contact lines instead of two.

Eight speeds are selected on the feeder: 3.5 / 5 / 7 / 10 / 12.5 / 16 / 25 / 32 m/min at 50 Hz, and 3.5 / 5 / 7 / 10 / 12 / 17 / 26 / 34 m/min at 60 Hz. The drive is a 1 HP motor.

The body is sealed and carries a dust collection port, so chips leave where the rollers meet the part. Net weight is 27 kg feeder plus 33 kg stand. Cartons are 740 × 315 × 540 mm for the body and 750 × 315 × 290 mm for the stand; 132 sets fit a 20' container.

What the nameplate and the carton actually say:

• Four rollers, not two — four Φ120 × W60 mm rubber wheels, so a short part rests on four contact lines and cannot pivot.
• Eight speeds — the feed opens from 3.5 m/min to 32 m/min at 50 Hz, so a dense timber and a clean board each get their own rate.
• 60 Hz set — on a 60 Hz supply the same eight positions read 3.5 to 34 m/min, so the top end is kept on either grid.
• 1 HP drive — a 1 HP motor carries the stock through the head without stalling at the low end.
• 25 mm of suspension — each roller floats 25 mm, so a board that varies in thickness keeps all four wheels loaded.
• Sealed body, dust port — the housing is closed and a collection port takes chips away, so sawdust does not pack under the gearbox.
• Adjustable feed arms — the arms are fully adjustable, so the feeder is positioned over a shaper, an end miller or a router table.
• Two cartons — 740 × 315 × 540 mm body plus 750 × 315 × 290 mm stand, 62 kg net together, so the unit arrives complete.
• Built for a run — furniture and cabinet production is the listed use, at a fixed speed held all shift.

What changes once the feed comes from four rollers instead of from a hand on the stock:

• The hands leave the cutter. With four rollers holding the part, the operator sets one of the eight speeds and steps back, and the 1 HP drive pushes.
• One rate per timber. 3.5 m/min takes a dense board slowly and 32 m/min takes a clean one fast, so the setting follows the material.
• Short parts stay square. Four contact points at Φ120 × W60 mm resist the pivot a two-roller feeder allows, so a rail crosses the head untwisted.
• Thickness changes do not stop the run. 25 mm of roller suspension absorbs the step between one board and the next, so the cut continues.
• A cleaner machine at the end of the shift. The sealed body and dust port take chips away at the source, so less sawdust reaches the gearbox.
• One line on the order. Feeder and stand ship together in two cartons, 62 kg net, so nothing is sourced separately.
• Container maths done once. At 132 sets per 20' container, freight per machine is known before the order is placed.
• A feeder, not a fixture. The arms adjust, so moving from a shaper to an end milling machine is an arm position, not a second machine.

Yes, if your machine takes a power feeder on a stand — that is the listed use. It is sold for end milling machines, shapers and other woodworking equipment, and the feed arms adjust, so it is positioned over the spindle rather than bolted to one model.

Eight speeds, from 3.5 m/min to 32 m/min at 50 Hz. On a 60 Hz supply the same positions read 3.5 to 34 m/min; the full ladder is printed in the parameter table above.

Φ120 × W60 mm, four of them. Four wheels at that diameter give a part four contact lines instead of the two a two-roller feeder gives.

Yes. Each roller sits on 25 mm of suspension, so a board that varies in thickness by a couple of millimetres keeps all four wheels in contact through the cut.

A 1 HP motor. That is the rating on the parameter sheet, and it is what carries the stock through the head at the low end of the eight-speed set.

62 kg net and 64 kg gross for feeder plus stand. The feeder is 27 kg and the stand 33 kg net; they travel in two cartons of 740 × 315 × 540 mm and 750 × 315 × 290 mm.

132 sets in a 20' container. That figure is the one to quote against when a shipment is planned, because the two cartons are what take the volume.

Yes. The body is sealed and carries a dust collection port, so chips are taken away where the rollers meet the part instead of packing under the gearbox.
