This Fence Positioner is the perfect upgrade for INCRA Router Systems using the earlier Ultra Positioners.
It's the ideal foundation for any custom system that would benefit from its 0.025mm accuracy and repeatability. In addition to router table applications, the compact size of the LS17 makes it also work well for positioning band saw fences, drill press fences, etc.
The LS is the beefiest positioner INCRA has ever produced, with rock-solid fence travels of 17", 430mm. Lifting the red locking lever causes the patented steel lead screw positioning system to instantly snap the fence to the dead centre of any multiple of 1mm with an accuracy of 0.05mm. This allows fence positioning far beyond what's possible by eyesight alone, and fence setups are instantly repeatable. The integrated micro-adjust knob allows moving between whole increments with 0.025mm resolution for total control over small fence adjustments.
The lead screw adds quite a bit of mass, and because it's used for both incremental positioning and the micro-adjust, the LS has fewer moving parts than the previous Ultra positioner. Other improvements include recessed, "big view" cursor windows, a large micro-adjust knob conveniently located next to the fence, and all of the functions are now controlled by a single lever. And, quite simply, the sleek design is a handsome addition to any modern shop.
The LS17 and LS25 both feature a removable, T-slotted sub base under the tubular base housing. The sub base allows super-clean mounting directly to the router table with the fasteners fully concealed.
Please Note: The LS17 is not recommended for use with the INCRA TS Table Saw Rail System.
