Case Study: Laminate and Finishing Planer

A Perfect Surface Finish at Highest Speeds

This SUPERMASTER finishing planer was designed for one of the largest producers of laminated wood in France. It represents the latest generation machine in the SUPERMASTER Series. The customer was trading in an earlier model to get this one.

The SUPERMASTER 6/31-K is designed for a feed rate of up to 200 m/min, (~700 ft/min). It is not only used as a laminate planer, but also as a finishing planer for any surfaced product. Through innovative spindle co-ordination, exacting surface quality can be achieved at any feed rate.

As this customer is very quality conscious, he was determined to have only a REX planer.

Naturally, the machine is outfitted with hydraulic counter bearings and jointers. This machine can be height adjusted on all horizontal spindles, a feature that allows tools with differing turning directions to be used. This feature has been available for many years. With this machine, you can process work pieces as thin as 5 mm (under 1/4 inch!). You could theoretically produce a heavy gauge veneer if you wanted to.

The customer's reaction? "Such quality even we did not expect."

We look forward to seeing the production results created with this machine.
