Sherwood 13in Deluxe Benchtop Thicknesser with Helical Cutterhead 1500W 2HP

Sherwood’s 13in Helical Cutterhead Deluxe Thicknesser is packed with all the features you’ll find in industrial models in an incredibly affordable, robust, portable unit

Helical spiral heads will soon be the standard in all workshops. Not only do they produce a formidably better result, but the amount of money they’ll save you in the long-term has to be seen to be believed.

The cutterhead is fitted with thirty 15mm wide knives on a true helical spiral head. This construction allows the cutterhead to pass over more material, leaving a smoother finish while not having to work as hard. This in conjunction with tungsten carbide blades, leave your workpiece so clean, sanding may not be necessary,

The knives in this unit offer improved cutting performance and a much longer cutting time before becoming blunt – reducing the running costs of this unit significantly over the lifetime of the machine. Integrated rollers in the top to pass material back over when in use, providing more protection and presence wherever it goes. We encourage you to have a look around, because we’re certain that you won’t find a machine that offers this level of value anywhere else.

Helical Spiral Head Thicknesser Features

• A solid granite base improving machine weight and stability while maintaining consistent flatness.
• A built-in depth-of-cut stop allows you to set the depth to all common thicknesses in imperial and metric measurements maintaining consistent thickness when planing multiple pieces.
• Larger in-feed and out-feed tables that support your workpiece more effectively.
• Cutter head parallelism is maintained by four precision-ground steel posts.
• In-built dust chute and dust port with a unique three step size built into one outlet.

Why spiral cutterheads, we hear you say…?

True shear cut helical spiral headsprovide for a very efficient and smooth cut, requiring less horsepower, making smaller chips and operating with farless noise than other types of cutterheads.

Unlike conventional single straight knives, you do not need to replace the knife if it becomes damaged or dull. Instead, if one knife edge is damaged or needs sharpening simply turn it to another edge in seconds. You will only need to replace the inserts when four edges are dull, giving you more life than speed steel knives.

How long do Spiral Cutterhead Kniveslast?

Expect to rotate the knives once for 8-10 blade changes on traditional straight HSS blades. And rotate it four times before ever replacing them. So the knives will last up to 40 times longer than straight blade knives.
