Crawler type thickness planer is a specialized woodworking machine designed to effectively plane boards to a consistent thickness. Unlike standard thickness planers that use feed rollers, Crawler type thickness planers use a tracked mechanism to draw workpieces through cutting heads.

This tracked system allows the planer to process longer, heavier, or more irregularly shaped wood that may be difficult to process through traditional roller based designs. Tracking feed also helps reduce sniping or uneven cutting at both ends of the board.

Crawler type thickness planer are commonly used in industrial and commercial woodworking workshops that require a large amount of material preparation capability. Their sturdy structure and powerful motor enable them to remove a large amount of material at once.

Differences Between Crawler type thickness planer and normal thickness one

1. Transmission mode

Crawler type thickness planer: using crawler transmission, it can provide stronger traction and stability, suitable for heavier workpieces and complex processing environments.
Ordinary planer: usually uses wheels or slides, suitable for light or medium-sized workpieces, with high flexibility, but may not be as stable as track type in heavy load situations.

2. Processing accuracy

Crawler type thickness planer: Due to the design of the caterpillar, it can provide a more uniform pressure distribution and usually achieve higher machining accuracy.
Ordinary planer: Accuracy may be affected by the flatness of the worktable and pressure distribution, resulting in poor overall stability.

3. Applicable materials

Crawler type thickness planer: suitable for handling larger and heavier materials, commonly used in industrial production.
Ordinary planer: suitable for lighter materials, usually used in small workshops or households.

4. Operational complexity

Crawler type thickness planer: Due to its complex structure, operation and maintenance may require more specialized knowledge.
Ordinary planer: The structure is relatively simple, and the operation and maintenance are relatively convenient, suitable for beginners to use.

5. Cost

Crawler type thickness planer: usually priced higher, suitable for large-scale production and high-intensity use.
Ordinary planer: relatively economical, suitable for small-scale operations and low-frequency use.

The spiral blade of spart parts

High precision

The research and development team will arrange the discarding blades around the screw blade according to the actual needs of the wood processing. The formation of a smaller cutting surface per unit time, the traditional flat-headed tool of the whole chip cutting replaced by a segmented cutting, the planing point will be evenly distributed to each machining insert independent cutting.

high efficiency

High-precision design of knife body and blade, combined with segmented cutting to make wood planing more delicate and smooth. The blade is assembled without high temperature welding, ensuring that the hardness of each blade is above HRA93.5 degrees and greatly improves the tool life; When the blade is passivated, the factory operator disassembles the blade and replaces the blade surface by himself, which is simple and quick to operate and saves processing time and processing cost.

Low noise

Subsection cutting makes the cutting contact area between the tool surface and the processed wood surface per unit time is small, and the cutting resistance friction is smaller, so that the heat generated by cutting is small, the noise is small, the blade life is longer, the power is saved, the cutting surface is smooth and delicate. The noise value produced by cutting surface contacting wood surface per unit time is reduced by 30DB-50DB compared with that of flat cutting surface contacting wood surface in the same time.

Low cost

The conventional service life of the abandoned spiral knife is 5-10 times that of the traditional flat knife, and the improvement of processing efficiency not only greatly improves the monthly wood processing output, but also improves the quality of wood processing. At the same time, it will not tear the wood during cutting, improve the yield, and the processing effect not only improves the surface finish of the wood, reduces or eliminates the wood sanding process, and greatly reduces the processing cost for colleagues who improve the working efficiency; Easy chip removal during processing, energy saving, reducing the overall load of the machine when working, greatly improving the service life of the machine.
