minimax fs 52es Surfacing-thicknessing machine

Perfect finish

An optimal planing with minimal effort, thanks to the 95 mm diameter cutter block  and 4 knives. For an impeccable finish the pressure of the thicknesser feed rollers can be adjusted according to the type of wood machined. The roller infeed has a helicoidal profile to guarantee firm and constant work piece feed, while the outfeed roller in sandblasted steel maintains the perfect post-processing finishing.

Stability over time

Comfortable and precise planing. The Elite S series adopt ergonomic solutions like the 2200 mm surfacing tables, in ribbed cast iron, with simultaneous opening towards the inside of the machine with a 90° angle. For a maximum long lasting stability the cast iron thicknessing table lifts on 4 spindles with trapezoidal threads dust protected.

High rigidity

High rigid fence with a smooth movement thanks to the central locking on round bar.

“Xylent” spiralknife cutter block with 3 series of knives

The 3 spiralknives give an exceptional finish. Reduced noise during machining provides a more comfortable working environment. It also improves the dust extraction due to the production of very small chips. Each cutter has 4 tips which can be rotated into the cutting position when worn. Therefore increasing the production life of the cutter block before knives require replacement.
