Newman S-382-E Double Planer

The Newman S-382 is designed to take random width rough sawn lumber and calibrate it to target thickness. It has a 30" (762 mm) width capacity and now comes standard with electric feed drive!  The S-382 will process lumber at speeds of from 80 to 300 FPM (25 to 92 mpm) and may be equipped with either the patented QUIETCUT™ Helical Carbide Cutterheads or the standard H.H.S cutterheads.

Two 15 HP Sew-Eurodrive gearmotors are mounted directly onto the feed shafts.  The feed shafts have changed from the hex shaft configuration to the new interconnected hub design.  Two AC Variable frequency inverters allow for precision infeed and outfeed roll synchronization, aiding in extended tire life.

The Newman G-200 Rotary Knife Grinder

Recommended for precision grinding of chipper, planer and other specialty knives that require making a straight pass across the face of the knife.

The unique design of these grinders provides a rotating disc with four adjustable bars for grinding bevels from 25 to 40 degrees. It is also equipped with inside bars for grinding planer knives on a fixed 30 degree bevel. Various knife stacking features are available.

These grinders have a built-in coolant system with the base of the machine acting as the reservoir. The knives are flooded with coolant just before and after the grinding wheel keeping the knives extremely cool.
