Choose
from three series:
Each series is designed for specific duty-cycles, while maintaining
the highest surface finish quality at their rated speed. They can
be configured very much the same way, starting with 2 shafts, and
can each be expanded to 12 shafts. The key differences between the
three models involve the design, weight, and size of the cutter blocks,
and their counter-bearing and feed systems, which determine how fast
the machines can process and produce finished timber products.
Rex planers include specialty design, such as adjustable upper unit
thicknesser for timber and plastic. Even metal is being processed
with Rex machines, but the company really makes its mark with these
timber systems.
Rex four-sided planers solve profiling applications by calibrating
first with the horizontal cutter heads, then adding multiple spindles
to achieve the desired profiling process. This assures highest surface
finish quality for any application.
Rex planers use a cardanic drive shaft system that feeds even wet
and frozen wood. Interchangeable tool systems (cone or hydraulic
tensioning, reversible blade and spiral systems) make any timber
processing possible.

Commercial:
TimberMaster
Multi-functional automatic planer that offers all the ability of the
above, but at an entry level that meets many more budgets. The TimberMaster
can process cants, glulams, log profiles, two-by material, tongue and
groove, etc. at a most affordable price. It can also be delivered as
a two-sided machine.
- Rex cutter heads with hydro locking, can be easily removed for
knife changes. On the vertical units, profile tools can be used as
an alternative.
- The flying circle of the vertical heads can range from minimum ø160
mm, to maximum ø 200 mm. for a profile depth of maximum 20
mm. For special application we offer also 250 mm
- Rex planers always use the horizontal cutter heads only for calibration.
This design assures perfect sizing and finish quality. In order to
profile horizontally, Rex adds additional spindles such as 5th and
6th.
