Panel Raising Cutter – HSS M2 or T.C.T. Carbide | D160 / D200

Profiled cutter for creating raised panels on a stationary spindle moulder, available in two diameters (160 mm and 200 mm), two material variants (HSS M2 or T.C.T. Carbide), and two working positions (above or below the wood) – all selectable from the menu. Frequently used in the production of solid wood doors, panel furniture, and decorative wood elements.

🚀 PROPERTIES AND PERFORMANCE:

  • Robust and Balanced Body: made of heat-treated steel, the tool body eliminates vibrations, protecting machine bearings and ensuring flat finishes.
  • Fine and Precise Cut: regardless of the chosen material, the brazed inserts ensure a consistent cut and a finish directly from milling, ready for stain or lacquer.
  • Z4 Configuration: the 4 inserts distribute the cutting force evenly, without material tear-out.
  • Long-Term Investment: the inserts can be successively resharpened at a specialized center, and in case of advanced wear, the cutter body can be re-brazed.
  • Maximum Flexibility: 2 diameters × 2 materials × 2 working positions — select the exact combination for your machine and project.

💡 How to choose the working position:
Above the wood – you visually control the profile during milling; recommended for manual work with controlled feed from above.
Below the wood – sawdust and chips are ejected directly downwards; the workpiece finish remains protected during sliding on the milling table.

⚠️ USAGE LIMITATIONS:

  • HSS M2 variant: ❌ not recommended for chipboard, MDF, HDF or very hard exotic wood – synthetic binder prematurely wears the high-speed steel edge.
  • T.C.T. Carbide variant on softwood: requires constant feed – stationary rotation on resinous woods can cause local burns.

💡 Purchase Conclusions:
  1. Working with Spruce, Fir, or Pine? Choose HSS M2 – guarantees an immaculate white finish, free from burn marks.
  2. Working with Oak, Beech, MDF, or Chipboard? Choose T.C.T. Carbide – resists the abrasive wear of hardwoods and synthetic binders.
  3. Caution with Carbide on softwood: requires constant feed – stationary rotation can cause burn marks on the fiber.

🦺 SAFETY MEASURES FOR USE:

  • Mandatory protective equipment: safety glasses (against projected chips), mask or respirator (fine wood dust), and ear defenders for prolonged work.
  • Attention to hands and fingers: always use a feed/push device; do not manually guide the workpiece with your hands near the cutter.
  • Check cutter orientation before starting the machine – the "Above" variant and the "Below wood" variant are not interchangeable; incorrect mounting produces an incorrect profile.
  • Check the cutter's fixation on the spindle and the full tightening of the nut before starting.
  • Observe the recommended RPM of 6,000 RPM.
