The spiral cutting block has twenty four, four sided, solid carbide cutters arranged in a helix. The shear cutting action produces a silky smooth finish. There is a complete lack of planing ripple as often found using traditional straight knives. Each cutter’s edge will last around 10-20 times longer than a HSS knife and each cutter has four edges. When a cutter does become dull, take the torx driver supplied and turn the cutter through 90\u003cspecial id=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/special\u003e, retighten the screw and you're ready to go again. Down time is a bare minimum, no resetting or waiting for the blades to come back from the sharpening. Spiral cutter blocks are notably quieter in use and produce noticeably less vibration. Extraction is more efficient due to the size and even shape of the waste produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen surface planing, a long rigid alloy fence supports your work. The fence is easily adjustable with stops for 90\u003cspecial id=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/special\u003e and 45\u003cspecial id=\"8\"\u003e\u003c\/special\u003e. Changing from surfacing to thicknessing is very simple. You don’t need to remove or change the position of the fence when you lift the table. The single lift table mechanism works well, spring supported it requires little effort. There is a power feed engagement lever for use when thicknessing; the 4.8m\/min feed speed ensures a smooth, even finish. The AW2260S is fitted with a digital thicknessing gauge, greatly simplifying depth adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note, this machine is fitted with a 1.5kW motor, allowing it to run from a standard domestic 13A socket without the need for a more costly 16A electrical supply installation. If you require an EU plug, please ensure you purchase 113776. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspecial id=\"22\"\u003e\u003c\/special\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Axminster Workshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54118445941083,"sku":"108512","price":1399.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0962\/0652\/0667\/files\/108512_xl.jpg?v=1789780509","url":"https:\/\/www.axminstertools.com\/products\/axminster-workshop-aw2260s-planer-thicknesser-spiral-block-230v","provider":"Axminster Tools","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
