Minimax FS41 ELITE Planer / Thicknesser

The SCM Groups Minimax FS41Elite Planer Thicknesser is Proudly made in Italy.

Perfect finishing
The planer unit stands on cast iron supports and the standard version has a 87 mm diameter cutter block with the SCM Patented "Xylent" Spiral Cutter block. For an impeccable finish, the pressure of the thicknesser feed rollers can be adjusted according to the type of wood machined. The in feed roller has a helicoidal profile to guarantee firm and constant work piece feed, while the out feed roller, in sandblasted steel, maintains the perfect post-processing finishing.


Planing fence
The fs 41e uses a dedicated planing fence extremely rigid and smooth, thanks to a support with central round bar and has an additional overturning fence for thin workpieces.


“Xylent” spiralknife cutter block with 3 Rows of knives is without a doubt the best on the Market.
The 3 spiral knives 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.
