Key Knife used their extensive knowledge of indexible knife technology to create the revolutionary Key Planer Head. The innovative design of the planer head and the use of a smaller disposable knife allows for more knives in a cutting diameter. The result is a planer head that will significantly improve your surface finish, production volume, operating efficiencies, and safety.

Advantages

Increased Production

• The Key Planer Head can house up to 100% more knives in a given cut diameter vs. conventional heads. This unique capability gives mills the option to increase line speed without sacrificing finish.
• Ridge Strip Knife lasts 2-3 times longer than conventional knives, reducing frequency of knife changes, ultimately increasing uptime.
• If contaminants nick/damage knives only the damaged Ridge Strip Knives need to be replaced (and jointed in)… significantly reducing downtime.

Superior Surface Finish

• The Key Planer Head's innovative design allows for up to 100% more knives in a given cut diameter vs. conventional heads. The increased knife count yields an increase in cuts per inch. The Key Planer Head gives planer mills the option to improve finish and/or production.

Increased Operating Efficiency and Safety

• 2 sided Ridge Strip Knife lasts 2-3 times longer than conventional knives.
• Small Ridge Strip Knife is safer to handle and easy to install.
• No knife grinding.

Features

• Ridge Strip Planner Knife - The Ridge Strip knife has two edges that have proven to last a minimum of 2-3 times longer than conventional flat knives. After both edges are used simply throw the knife away. Costly and time intensive knife maintenance, such as grinding and weighing/matching knife sets, is not longer needed.
• Hub and Shaft - Precision machined from high grade alloy steel and balanced to ISO G1.0 spec to minimize vibration. The Key Planer Head is available for both integral and hydro-lock arbor clamping systems.
• Taper Locking Gib Screw - The gib screw is ideally positioned perpendicular to the center of the shaft to insure proper knife placement, and eliminate the need to torque the gib screws in a pattern. The gib screw is induction hardened to prolong part life and eliminate problematic stripping of the bolt head.
• Gib - Manufactured out of chipper steel for strength, durability, and wear resistance. The gibs tight dimensional weight tolerance eliminates the need to weight/match gib sets.
•  I-Knife
  • Available for both dry and green target sizes.
  • Available Radius sizes: 1/8” - 3/16” - 1/4”
• Single Gib/Gib Screw Design - Allows for quick and easy knife change and setup.

Available Mounting Configurations

• Standard Taper Bore
• Hydro-Lock
• Hub Sleeve
