With its precise, reliable and long-lasting use, a planing width of 630 mm and an impressive chip removal of 8 mm, the massive yet compact PANHANS thickness planer has already convinced numerous carpenters, joiners and woodworkers around the world. This is also made possible by the maintenance-free bearing construction with high-performance precision ball bearings.
The robust steel construction and the dynamically balanced TERSA cutter block, together with the powerful 7.5 kW motor, ensure extremely smooth and quiet running even under heavy loads.
Optionally, the machine can be equipped with a spiral cutter block with 4-fold carbide inserts. The "pulling cut" enables longer service lives and even smoother running.
Pendulum-mounted infeed and outfeed rollers as well as segmented pressure beams guarantee jerk-free transport of the workpieces to be machined. The 1620 mm long thicknessing table has a finely planed surface made of solid grey cast iron and its air cushion effect prevents the workpieces from sticking on the table top.
The infeed side contains a control panel with all the important functional elements for starting/stopping the cutter block and feed unit as well as for releasing the motor brake. Above the control panel is the newly developed touchscreen control for setting the height of the thicknessing table, indicating the feed rate and status messages, and setting operating parameters.
The machine is equipped as standard with an effective anti-kickback device and all the necessary safety devices.
Optionally, the proven PANHANS thicknesser can be extended with various table extensions and other specific components.
