Charnwood

A thicknesser fitted with a spiral cutter block with Tungsten Carbide cutters for a smoother finish and noticeably reduced noise levels. The PT330S has a 13”x 6” capacity allowing a wide variety of stock to be dimensioned by its 1800w (2.4hp) drive motor. At the heart of the machine is a spiral cutter block with 2 rows of spur cutters, arranged so that they cut in a shearing action, rather than straight. This type of cutter block is more expensive than a conventional set up, but does offer several advantages. Advantages of spiral cutters over conventional cutters: Shearing Cut = Better finish. Expect a smoother finish in softwood, hardwood and difficult grain. Low Sound Levels = Less noise by up to 50%. Each blade is moving less air and taking a smaller cut. More Cutters = Reduced energy consumption. Each cut uses less energy, overall saving can be 30%. TC (Tungsten carbide) Cutters = longer cutter life, up to 10 times compared to HSS. Each cutter can be rotated when worn.
