Northtech NT 400XL Heavy Duty Chain Drive Series Double Surfacer
Overview
Description
The NT 400XL is our 16″ chain drive double surfacer. Double surfacers, some times referred to as 2 sided planers are used to size the thickness of wood and other dense materials such as plastic. The NT 400XL has a 16″ working width and over 6″ working height, making it a very capable machine. The top and bottom helical cutter head uses two sided 30x12x2.5 carbide insert cutters for a smooth finish across the entire width. The powered top and bottom feed system is designed with integrated chrome bed rollers and a chain driven spring loaded carpet spike infeed. The jointer table infeed and overhead spring loaded carpet spike system allows this machine to not only size the thickness, but also straighten warped or crooked material. The top head is easily accessible for tooling changes by removing the dust hood and the bottom head pulls out of the machine completely in just a couple minutes for full access. The upper assembly is supported by a heavy duty slideway system that provides precision thickness sizing across the entire width and has digital thickness positioning control. Northtech Double surfacers are available in 16″-52″ working widths with up to a 24″ working thickness and can be offered with a safety/sound enclosure. CUTTERHEADS
