Key Features & Benefits
High-Speed Feed System for Increased Productivity
• The full cardan shaft feed drive enables a feed rate of up to 98' per minute, keeping up with high production demands
• Three driven bed rollers ensure consistent material movement even with heavier or longer stock
• Sectional serrated infeed roll before the top cutterhead guarantees a reliable, smooth start to every pass
Precision Cutterheads Deliver Cleaner, Quieter Cuts
• Spiral insert knife cutterheads with six rows of two-sided 30 x 12 x 2.5 mm carbide inserts provide a premium surface finish
• Reduces machine load and operating noise, increasing efficiency and comfort
• The steel spiral heads are mounted in precision ABEC 7 RHP bearings for maximum stability and longevity
Digital Controls for Accurate Thickness Settings
• Digital thickness control ensures precise adjustments down to +/- 0.002"
• Swivel-mounted control panel makes access ergonomic and efficient
• Individual ammeters help operators monitor motor load, while a built-in hour meter aids in maintenance planning
Durable Design for Continuous Industrial Use
• Cast-iron machine frame offers excellent vibration damping, enhancing cutterhead life and cut quality
• Chrome-plated top and bottom tables resist wear and maintain accuracy over time
• The upper assembly adjusts via four large-diameter posts for stable, even height changes
Optimized Stock Removal and Feed Consistency
• Material is first passed over the bottom jointing head using a spring-loaded pin feed system, ensuring it’s perfectly flat before planing to final thickness
• The adjustable infeed bed allows you to dial in how much material is removed on the bottom pass
• Automatic conveyor lubrication keeps the feed system running smoothly with minimal downtime
