5 Our know-how = your opportunity With over 90 years of experience in mechanical engineering MARTIN has become one of the leading manufacturers of sliding table saws, planers and spindle moulders for professional use. Our machines are produced according to the latest knowledge and standards and we are completely committed to future-oriented technologies. For decades the name MARTIN has not only stood for excellence in woodworking, but also for our expertise in machining plastics. In short, it s all about machining and finishing semi-finished products like panels, blocks, rods, tubes and other forms of thermo- and duroplastics. We are very proud to count among our customers, large international enterprises as well as small innovative businesses. For those companies that are engaged in craft trades and produce individual parts or medium size production series, the possibility of machining plastics on our machines may be of special interest. With our machines you can also process plastic material that cannot normally or only with great effort be processed by production methods like injection moulding, extrusion or blow moulding. At MARTIN you can find out everything you want to know about the following methods of machining: Sawing Moulding Profiling Planing MARTIN sets standards The MARTIN planer The MARTIN sliding table saw The MARTIN moulder Page 6 Page 8 Page 10 5

6 Planing and profiling plastics: The MARTIN planer The T45 thickness planer is perfectly suited to the modern processing of plastics. The main task of the T45 thickness planer is the precise machining of your materials surfaces. The key is not only to plane the workpiece to a predefined thickness, but also to establish a smooth surface finish. The cutting tool that is used always has a significant influence on the quality of the surface. The T45 s heavy vibration dampening composite machine frame along with the optimally balanced cutterhead, guarantee outstanding planing results. For over 25 years, MARTIN has relied on the TERSA solid steel cutterhead that is produced in-house at our plant in Germany. Thanks to the broad range of different materials and geometries that are used for the cutterhead, the operator can react flexibly and precisely to the different machining methods the workpiece requires. The traditional cutterblock as well as a special HELIX cutterblock are further options to this very flexible cutterblock style that is also available with special cutterhead hook angles. All cutterblocks can be ordered with variable speeds of up to 6000 rpm per minute. If you want to machine thin or even very thin workpieces securely and accurately, we suggest our vacuum machine table with the special planar ground surface. The vacuum table holds the workpiece in place, resulting in a snipe free finish. MARTIN offers two different inverter drives for the feed system with two different feed rate ranges depending on the material, tool hook angle and feed rate. The electronically controlled planing height adjustment that comes as standard consistently ensures perfectly machined workpieces. It can also be ordered with increments of 0.05 mm. These values are realistic and achievable as the thicknessing table is supported Perfectly set at the first attempt The TERSA system select between four different knife qualities The infinitely variable feed speed makes sure that surfaces are flawless The thickness can be set via controller with an accuracy of 0.05 mm The machine table s planar ground table surface prevents the bottom side of the workpiece from being scratched The vacuum table for thin and hard material Profiling up to a width of 630 mm T45 Thicknesser with accessories 6

At the same time the machine s vibration and sound-absorbing construction and modern industrial design ensure a comfortable, whisperquiet operation. The T45 Contour offers unique worldwide solutions for the safe profiling of surfaces in one pass. You can choose between the Contour 15 and the Contour 25 achieving a profile depth of 15.5 or 25 mm respectively. If no knives are inserted into the cutterhead knife pockets, the T45 Contour 15 turns into a straight thickness planer. With the T45 Contour profiles can be machined up to 630 mm, a process that normally requires more expensive special machinery. Preparing the surfaces of a workpiece by jointing is only one aspect of the T54. Additionally beveled edges can also be machined with high precision. Perfect end results can only be obtained with perfectly jointed material. The T54 offers the ideal conditions to create unequalled precision. The smooth-running fence with integrated auxiliary fence enables quick and precise jointing operations. The fence runs smoothly and without tilting on ball bearing guided courses as precise years later as on the first day of use. Chamfers can also be machined in a flash, because any angle between 90 und 45 can be set quickly with the manually operated controls. With the planar ground vacuum table very thin and flexible workpieces can be machined With the T45 Contour you can profile surfaces of up to a width of 630 mm Consider this - one machine both for profiling and planing T54 Surface planer with accessories 7
