Sheartak Spiral Cutterhead for Kamro AFK 5 500mm Surface Planer, Flattener with 126 Carbide Inserts
Woodworkers are currently upgrading their old planers and jointers by installing spiral cutter heads, reaping several advantages:
Enhanced Surface Quality: Thanks to the unique design where each knife sits at a slight angle, spiral cutter heads execute a shear cut. This results in a smoother finish without any tear-out. The staggered cut pattern outperforms a single straight cut, particularly on highly figured hardwood, leaving behind a glossy surface.
Reduced Noise: The staggered cutting action of the spiral cutter head significantly diminishes noise levels compared to traditional setups.
Extended Lifespan: With inserts crafted from sintered tungsten carbide, spiral cutter heads boast more than ten times the longevity of high-speed steel. Each insert features four edges, providing longevity and reliability.
Convenient Maintenance: The precision-ground knives, with a tolerance of +/-0.0004" or +/-0.01mm, are easily interchangeable. Changing edges is a breeze; simply loosen the screw, rotate 90° for a fresh edge, and tighten the insert within minutes.
Improved Dust Extraction: The spiral cutter head produces thinner and shorter chips, simplifying dust extraction processes and maintaining cleaner workspaces.
Cost-Effectiveness: Spiral cutter heads deliver a smooth finish, reducing or even eliminating the need for sanding. With no sharpening required, the investment pays for itself quickly, making it a cost-effective choice for woodworkers.
