Yes I work at a mill we specialize in reclaimed lumber we have a weinig unimat I'm curious a to where is the cheapest place to buy replacement feeder heads and how to u adjust the height of the last two out feed rollers were always having to smack the lumber to get it to feed and it just doesn't seem wise to do so
If you are having feed problems you need to check that the pressure pads and fences are set correctly. It could also be that you your timber is wet which will also cause the timber to stick. Finally check the condition of the feed rollers.
A host of variables can result in snipe. The key is to control the flow of the board with through the entire machining process. The pressure shoe and chip-breaker are important elements to set correctly and will reduce the risk of snipe on the end of the board.
It depends on the where the snipe is...top, side, bottom? If it is on the side or the bottom insure your tool is straight edged in alignment to the following fence or table plate. Make sure your fences and bed plates are not too far apart. If it is on the top you may have the top chip breaker too tight going in to the cutting spindle, this will cause a springboard effect. Also, insure your drive rollers are all the same diameter...if not this will cause gap between parts contributing to springboard effect so make sure infeed material goes in back to back.
Top snipes can be a not enough pressure on chipbreaker, gapping, or your pressure shoe/chipbreaker are too far away from the cutterhead. Bottom snips are due to either a pressure shoe not parallel to the bedplate or the bottom head is either too high (tail end) or too low (lead end + chatter)
Do you have a video explaining the axials ? I’m learning on a power at 1500… Thai you

¡¡Hola, deben de subtitularlo para Argentina!!
I am looking for the best mounded for running mdf molding and rail stock and how many feet per minute will these molders run
how many knife heads are being run typical 4 5/8 crown total numer of knives for this profile looking at tooling costs
What does your crown look like?
Does the pressure shoot have to be the same level as the chipbraker
Actually no. Because the board thickness entering the top head will be thicker then the board coming out.
What causes snipe at the end of the product?
