4-Side Moulder

THUNDERMAC 80~150 m/min Jointed Moulder

Delivering Unparalleled Speed and Power in a High-Efficiency Automated System

LEADERMAC Thundermac Series

The Leadermac Thundermac Series 4-side Planer/Moulder was developed with the aim of improving productivity and surface finish. The Thundermac Series features high feed speed of up to 80 M/min (265 FPM) as standard and optional extra high feed speed of up to 200 M/min (656 FPM). is available. Each spindle is driven by an individual 15 & 22 KW / 20 & 30 HP Motor and optional to 45 KW (60 HP), allowing for heavy cutting. A wide range of spindle configurations from 2 to 10 Spindles provide flexible choice to meet specific moulding requirement. Maximum stability during high speed is attainable thanks to the rugged construction throughout.

 

Equipped with a user-friendly Programmable Controller, the desired values for width and thickness can be conveniently pre-set and are displayed on the LED readout. (Optional)

 

The Power and Precision for World-class Production Quality

FULLY AUTOMATIC FEEDING SYSTEM (Optional)

When the system detects the workpiece on the infeed chains, the hydraulic feed system will pneumatically lower and activate the top roller to feed the workpiece into the machine. This provides constant and stable feed, reducing labor requirements and decreasing cycle time.

The automatic feeding system provides users with significantly greater efficiency and lower operating cost.

FEED SYSTEM

The infeed rolls work in conjunction with a limit switch (anti double-up gate) to stop the machine feed if the workpiece is too thick or there is double up.

AUTOMATIC LUBRICATOR

The machine comes equipped with an automatic lubricator, which automatically delivers lubrication oil to the feed table, ensuring smooth feed at all times.

PNEUMATIC SAFETY LOCK DEVICE

The lock device is designed with two air cylinders to tighten the hydro-bearing housing to achieve dependable locking function. The top air cylinder actuates to tighten the hydro-bearing housing in Axial direction, while the bottom air cylinder is used for tightening in Radial direction.

Superior Pressure Mechanism for Improved Cutting Stability from LEADERMAC


DESIGNED FOR PARAMOUNT STABILITY

Powerful, heavy-duty pneumatic side and pressure shoes for the left spindle provide extremely stable pressure for high-speed operations. A pneumatic Top Pressure Roller System in front of the right vertical spindle ensures constant stock feed.

POWERED INFEED ROLLER

The smooth initial feeding of the stock is achieved by means of the independently powered Top & Bottom Infeed Rolls.

CONVENIENT SPINDLE ADJUSTMENT

Adjustment of all spindles is easily done from the front. The adjustment points are all at the same height, for more convenient and faster adjustment.

HEAVY DUTY GEARBOX & MOTOR

The feed rollers are driven through a combination of universal shafts and gearboxes, ensuring no loss of power transmission. A smooth feeding effect is assured. Heavy duty gearboxes have no backlash and provides powerful and accurate feeding performance.
