Hardwood silent power: Spiral cutter block

The planer thicknesser can also be equipped with an optional spiral cutter block, designed for a smoother and quieter woodworking experience. This innovative cutter block features a series of small, rectangular knives arranged in a spiral pattern, ensuring that each knife works incrementally for a fluent and efficient cutting process. The result is a significant reduction in noise and a finer finish on hardwoods. However, the spiral cutter block is not recommended for softwoods like pine, due to two key factors: Resin Content: Softwoods tend to have higher resin levels, which can clog and affect the cutter block’s performance. Fibrous Texture: The fibrous nature of softwoods like pine can lead to tearing or fuzzing, reducing the overall finish quality. For those primarily working with hardwoods, the spiral cutter block is an excellent upgrade, offering enhanced performance and a superior finish.

Planer Protection for Enhanced Safety

The planer protection is designed with safety in mind, preventing your hands from coming into contact with the knives during planing operations. Both the height and width of the protection can be easily adjusted to accommodate various workpiece sizes, ensuring a safe and comfortable working environment without compromising on accessibility.

Adjustable Chip Removal for Optimized Speed and Precision

The planer allows you to easily adjust the chip removal depth, giving you control over the balance between speed and accuracy. The finer the setting, the more precise the work—but with a slight reduction in speed. Finding the right balance is key, and for most operations, we recommend a maximum chip removal of 4mm. This flexibility lets you tailor the machine to your specific project needs, ensuring optimal performance every time.

Future-ready with advanced planing inserts

In our larger planers, we continue to use the aluminum planing inserts that have long provided reliable performance. However, as we innovate, these inserts will in time be replaced by newer 3D-printed versions. The transition to 3D-printed inserts reflects our commitment to continually improving both precision and durability, ensuring even better results in future models.

Stronger planer fence for ultimate stability and ease of use

The planer fence on the S 410 is designed for maximum strength and stability, a key upgrade over the lighter fences in smaller models. Moving on a round bar instead of a traditional square rod, the fence’s centralized mounting provides smoother, more effortless movement despite its heavier construction. This design also minimizes momentum during adjustments, making the fence exceptionally stable when locked in position, ensuring precision even during intensive planing tasks. For added versatility, the fence can be easily adjusted to 45° or 90°, with physical end stops that are factory-set by our professionals. These end stops ensure absolute accuracy, locking the fence securely in position without the need for recalibration. Whether you're working at a perfect 90° or making bevel cuts at 45°, the S 410's stronger planer fence delivers consistent, high-quality results with ease and stability.
