CANTEK | GTM1020W 40″ DOUBLE SURFACE PLANER

Wide double-sided planer with big capacity.

The Cantek GTM1020W 40” Double Surface Planer has a robust cast-iron body for industrial planing day in and day out.  The spiral insert knife cutterheads produce a smooth planed finish with maximum stock removal.  The material is passed over the bottom head with a spring-loaded pin feed system while the infeed bed is adjustable to determine how much material is removed. The final thickness is keyed in the digital control and the top head & feed assembly automatically move in place.  This wide planer is ideal for increasing production on narrow boards and capable of planning live edge slabs, countertops, table tops, door panels, and more.
