Power and Stability
To provide stable footing–the important thing to optimum accuracy–the 54HH has a 21- x 13-inch (W x D), all-steel base cabinet that puts the table surface at a comfortable 32 inches above the ground. The only-horsepower, one-phase, 115-/230-volt motor (pre-stressed out for 115 volts) is factory-mounted throughout the base cabinet and will also be converted to make use of 230-volt power. The motor is on a special mount for simple belt-tension adjustments, and the fine/quick adjustment lever at the infeed table ensures precision cuts.
The base also incorporates the dust collection chute that evacuates debris from below the cutterhead by means of the outside four-inch-diameter port close to the ground–a design that assists in keeping the hose out of how to save you tripping accidents.
Helical Cutterhead
There are many cutterhead designs that carry the helical moniker, including simple straight blades broken into segments and dispersed across the cutterhead cylinder. In spite of the helical label, they maintain some of the liabilities of the long-blade designs. Then again, the 54HH includes a true helical cutterhead with specially machined carbide inserts arranged in spiral-shaped rows for effective–and incredibly quiet–performance.
The inserts actually have a four-inch radius ground into them and are mounted in order that they approach the wood at a 14-degree angle. This creates a true shear cut that gets rid of much of the affect and the resulting fiber disturbance other cutterhead designs deliver. Also, the sturdiness of the carbide combined with the low-affect, shear cutting action mean the inserts have an extended life.
Precision Ground Cast-Iron Tables
With a length of 66 inches and a width of seven-1/2 inches, the principle precision-ground solid iron table is without doubt one of the longest to be had on this class, providing quite a few toughen for massive workpieces. It is conveniently mounted on dovetailed ways in which keep it perfectly aligned through height changes. Adjustments are simple: the outfeed table height is adjusted with a handwheel mounted below the table; to regulate the infeed table, the maintain will also be moved up and down for coarse height changes or, the long maintain will also be rotated to make fine, precise height adjustments.
High-Performance Fence System
The all-solid iron fence system has a length of 38 inches, height of 4 inches–and just like the tables–is exactly ground to verify straightness. The supporting and tilt mechanism, made up of enormous solid iron pieces, make the program as accurate and repeatable as it’s durable. For versatility, the fence tilts as much as forty five-degrees towards and away from the tables.
Also, fully adjustable stops at 90 degrees (vertical) and each and every forty five-degree position make set-up fast and assist keep the 54HH accurate with minimal maintenance, whilst center-mounted controls make for simple operation.
The 54HH is backed by a five-year warranty.
