Driven by a high-torque 1850W motor operating at up to 8500 RPM, it provides consistent cutting force and smooth material removal across softwoods, hardwoods, and composite wood panels. Engineered with a generous 330mm (13 inch) maximum planing width, a 160mm maximum cutting height, and a 0 to 3mm depth adjustment range, this thicknesser handles wide planks and thick stock with ease. Built on a durable aluminum die-casting base with sheet metal extensions (374 x 655 mm platform), a two-blade cutter head, and an 8m/min automatic feed mechanism, it delivers smooth, uniform wood surfaces for furniture making and joinery tasks. Features Powerful 1850W Motor: High-performance motor delivers up to 8500 RPM for fast, efficient planing and reliable stock reduction on hard and soft timber. Large 330mm Planing Capacity: Accepts timber boards up to 330mm wide with a max thickness height of 160mm and adjustable cutting depth from 0 to 3mm per pass. Automatic 8m/min Feed Speed: Integrated auto-feed rollers pull boards smoothly and consistently through the cutter block to prevent snipe and uneven surface marks. Precision Two-Blade Cutter Block: Fitted with two durable planer blades to ensure smooth, clean, and chatter-free finishes on every pass. Stable Aluminum & Sheet Metal Base: Heavy-duty die-cast aluminum base combined with foldable extension tables (374 x 655 mm) provides rigid workpiece support and vibration damping.

Operating & Safety Guidelines Incremental Material Removal: For optimal blade life and motor performance, take smaller cutting depth passes (1mm to 1.5mm) when thicknessing dense hardwoods. Support Long Stock: Ensure long timber planks are properly supported on infeed and outfeed tables to maintain smooth feed rates and eliminate snipe. Clear Wood Specimen: Check timber for loose knots, nails, or debris before feeding into the machine to protect the cutter blades and rollers.
