Wood-Mizer’s 4-sided Planer Moulders Continue to Excel

WOOD-MIZER’S 4-SIDED PLANER MOULDERS CONTINUE TO EXCEL
16.04.2020

The new range now gives shopfitters, kitchen and furniture manufacturers, flooring and decking companies, specialist profiling shops and sawmills access to a complete wood processing solution from Wood-Mizer that can seamlessly convert logs into sawn and dried timber and finally into finished, ready-to-sell products.

 

The 4-sided planer moulder line-up is ground-breaking for several reasons.

Affordability is the first factor to consider.

 

The MP360 and MP260 can plane and profile timber in one pass into a ready-to-sell product or component required for manufacturing. 

 

This cuts down on the costs needed by new or existing businesses to purchase or improve on existing planing and profiling capacity. 

 

The inside of the MP360. Heavily engineered top and bottom and side spindles for accurate and precise straight planing and moulding in one pass.



Producers now only need to invest in one machine to achieve the same planing and profiling results that previously required expensive or multiple machines to achieve. 

 

The affordability of the 4-sided planer moulder line-up also allows small businesses to produce high-quality mouldings that traditionally only larger businesses could produce.

 

Producers also needn’t invest in expensive equipment, like six-head moulders or expensive older second-hand equipment that doesn’t fit their budgets. 

 

The easy-to-use control panel of the MP360 gives access to all machine functions.



The planing widths offered by the MP260 and 360 (410 mm and 510 mm) are also comparable with larger planers but without the accompanying price tag.

 

Wood-Mizer’s 4-sided planer moulder range also gives businesses with large production runs the ability to purchase an affordable, high-quality moulder to manage smaller production more flexibly for increased profits.

 

Simplicity is the next factor to keep in mind.

 

Both the MP360 and MP260 are easy to set up and use with the machine delivering quality planed and profiled components without costly trials and mistakes.

 

Made in Europe to Wood-Mizer’s exacting manufacturing standards, both units have a small footprint. This, plus the extra option of fitting wheels to the MP260, makes it easy to manoeuvre both machines around smaller shops or to slot into existing layouts or remove completely when not needed. 

 

There is no need for expensive dust extraction systems with Wood-Mizer offering a range of inexpensive dust extraction solutions, that can be customised to customer requirements. 

 

Expensive tooling has always been a drawback for small operations. The Wood-Mizer range of machines allows for tooling to be changed at a fraction of the traditional tooling costs.

Heights and widths are easily adjusted and have user-friendly measurement scales.

 

Infeed speed is also easily adjusted.



Wood-Mizer’s entire woodworking machine range is locally supported and maintained by factory trained technicians.

 

 

The MP260 and MP360 in a nutshell

 

MP260

  • Wood-Mizer’s MP260 four-sided planer/moulder is a versatile, compact machine engineered to allow for cost-effective planing and moulding capacity rolled into one. 
  • It planes and moulds boards on all four sides in a single pass into a variety of professionally finished products including flooring and decking, planed boards, profiled mouldings, cabinet trim, panelling, door and window frames, and furniture components. 
  • Maximum material sizes that can be processed are 230 mm (high) x 410 mm (wide)
  • The unit’s four cutter heads are driven by 3 kW motors. 
  • Five powered feed rollers (4 steel and one polyurethane) ensures the smooth and precise movement of the workpiece through the unit.
  • Multiple extraction points located near the cutters prevent chip build-up.
  • A centralised control panel allows the operator to start/stop all four cutter and power feed motors separately.

 

Taller and wider spindles on the MP360 allows for the planing and moulding of taller and wider timber.

 

A variety of planing and profiling knives allow for increased flexibility.



MP360

  • Wood-Mizer MP360 four-sided planer/moulder is a high-production, large capacity machine engineered for professional workshops. It’s a further development of the tried and tested Wood-Mizer MP260 planer/moulder. 
  • Its robust design allows for the processing of thicker timber on four sides offering a maximum planing/moulding height and width of 230 mm x 510 mm. 
  • The unit’s four cutter head motors range in size from 3 – 5.5 kW with the feed speed pinned at 3 – 15 m/minute.
  • A centralized control panel allows the operator to start/stop all four cutter and power feed motors separately.
  • Five feed rollers and multiple extraction points add further utility.
