Shaping Machine

The shaping machine is applied for planing the workpieces with flat surface, groove or other shaped surfaces by utilizing the plane cutter. It works following the principle that the cutter and the workpieces are relatively in straight reciprocating motion. Such a straight reciprocating motion is the primary motion for this planer, except which the auxiliary motion, also named as feed motion, is also necessary. The feed motion, in another word, refers to the intermittent motion of the working table or the plane cutter.

Specifically, this planer is capable of processing level surface, vertical surface, angular surface, curved surface, step surface, swallow-tail workpieces, T-type groove, V-type groove, etc. It is also usable for planning holes, gears and gear racks. The applicable range can be expanded if certain configurations are equipped.

The shaping machine is highly efficient in planing narrow but long surfaces. It especially suits the small and medium-scale production and maintenance shops.
