MP260 Planer / Moulder

The MP260 four-sided planer/moulder is a versatile, compact machine engineered for professional woodworkers, carpenters, or joiners in the construction trade. Affordable and easy to use, the MP260 planes and moulds boards on all four sides in a single pass into a variety of professionally finished products including flooring, planed boards, crown moulding, cabinet trim, paneling, door and window frames, and furniture components.

The MP260 planer/moulder has four cutting heads with the ability to produce single, two, three, and four-sided final products in various profiles. The MP260 has user-friendly measurement scales with a large 10 1/4” (260mm) wide x 4” (100 mm) high capacity for four-sided cutting. The capacity for one-side planing/moulding is 16 1/8” (410 mm) x 9” (230 mm) and two-sided is 11 13/16” (300 mm) x 9” (230 mm). The table height is easily adjusted with a manual hand crank to precisely position the material before entering the machine. A centralized control panel allows the operator to start and stop all four cutter and power feed motors separately. Four steel and one rubber power roller steadily move the board through the machine to ensure a consistent profile from end to end even with uneven boards. The feed rate is adjustable from 6 – 39 ft/minute (2-12 m/minute) to efficiently process both softwood and hardwood material.

Inside the machine, the top and bottom horizontal cutters and two vertical spindles on the right and left of the machine plane or mould the board at 6,000 rpm to ensure a smooth and consistent finish on one, two, three, or all four sides depending on which cutters are activated. A large viewing window allows the operator to supervise the entire cutting process from rough sawn boards to final products. Various extraction points are located near the cutters to keep chips from building up in the machine. Wood-Mizer provides multiple chip extraction systems depending on your operation needs. The compact MP260 occupies limited floor space with a small 43” (1100 mm) long x 35” (900 mm) wide footprint and is built to last with a heavy-duty cast-iron table, durable sheet steel chassis, and premium components.

By combining multiple planing and moulding knives, the extremely versatile MP260 can produce everything you need from baseboards and flooring to wall paneling and crown moulding. In addition to the four standard planing knives provided with the machine, Wood-Mizer offers a range of moulding knives to produce the exact product you need for your project or client. Changing knives is simple and takes approximately 10 to 20 minutes which makes the production of small quantities of custom material more efficient and profitable. Operators occasionally stock extra cutters with common knife profiles installed to save time when needing a new profile. Proven in workshops throughout the world, the MP260 four-sided planer/moulder ships on a single pallet, comes with a complete set of four planing knives, and requires minimal assembly time so you can start producing professionally finished planed and moulded products within a few hours of receiving your machine. With a 30-day money back guarantee and 2-year warranty, the MP260 is backed by the same legendary service, quality and safety features shared by the entire family of Wood-Mizer wood processing equipment.
