Planing Machine (Malayalam)

A planing machine is a linear motion machine tool that uses a planer to plan the plane, groove, or forming the surface of the workpiece. It is used to produce flat surfaces on large and heavy workpieces that are too large for a shaper. Planing machines are commonly used in the metalworking industry for machining large surfaces of castings and forgings.

Planing machines are available in different types such as open-side planers, double-housing planers, and edge planers. The machine consists of a bed or base on which the workpiece is mounted and a reciprocating planer head that moves back and forth across the workpiece. The cutting tool is mounted on the planer head and removes material from the workpiece as it moves across it.

Planing machines are used in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, construction, and manufacturing. They are also used in woodworking for surfacing rough lumber into flat boards.
