Jacks :: Advancing Efficiency in Woodworking

The MB1038B Thicknesser, from SMI

  • Table has solid cast iron extensions (not flimsy outrigger rollers)
  • Two adjustable rollers in the table prevent hesitation in the feed and marking of the work - less sanding!
  • A full 200mm working height - many ‘look-alike’ machines stop at 150mm 
  • Jacks supply digital display of height setting as standard - no more trial and error test pieces.  Perfect for jobbing work
  • Table adjustment by four heavy square threaded shafts running inside precision ground 48mm steel columns.
  • Two speed gearbox with automatic chain tensioner. High speed for gauging, slow speed for fine finishing
  • 4" dust port angled to side gives efficient chip removal and keeps ducting clear of the work return rollers
  • Internal wheel set is standard - you can move the machine around easily, but you won't trip when working
  • Thicknessing is the toughest task in most shops, and needs a strong machine. This one is built to last.

     SMI MB1038B digital display. Click to enlarge Jacks include digital height display as standard.
    No more messing around with test pieces because you can't read the lineal scale accurately. Numerical setting is quick and accurate - great for jobbing work which has to match existing material

     SMI MB1038B adjustable table rollers. Click to enlarge

    TWO adjustable, eccentrically mounted, table rollers are positioned directly below the driven infeed and outfeed rollers. Downward pressure from feed rollers is directed onto the table rollers, not the table! This minimises friction and hesitation in the feed especially when processing heavy, green or resinous timber. An even feed gives an even surface quality and less sanding. Machines without table rollers (or with just one) should be avoided.

    Spring loaded infeed pressure bar prevents bouncing and vibration.
    Smooth steel outfeed roller, for a flawless finish.
    No rubber or neoprene coating to get damaged and worn
