Frequently asked questions
What planing width does the PT 250 Planer-thicknesser with blades and setting gauge offer?
See "Planing width" in the technical table: typically 250 to 410 mm.
The width determines the maximum width of the board that can be worked in a single pass. For wider boards, a double pass or a larger machine is required.
Cutter block or spiral?
See the model: the "S" or "Spiral" version has a helical cutter block with HM inserts, the others have standard HSS knives.
The spiral cutter block produces less noise, better finish, and 5-10 times longer tool life, but costs more. The inserts are rotated individually when worn.
Minimum and maximum workable thickness?
See "Min/max thickness" in the technical table: typically from 4 mm to 230 mm in height.
The minimum thickness is limited by the safety devices; the maximum depends on the clearance under the thicknessing spindle.
Does it have quick changeover from planing to thicknessing?
Professional models allow switching functions in a few seconds by tilting the tables.
Reduced setup time is advantageous for those who frequently alternate between the two functions in series production.
What power supply does it require?
See "Voltage" in the table: typically 400 V three-phase for professional machines.
Models with motors over 2.2 kW require a three-phase line. Verify availability in the workshop before purchasing.
