About This Product

Reduction of costs and increase of efficiency

Great for large-scale wood production factories taking rough lumber from the dry kiln to produce a consumer product. The Timesavers Yieldsaver is still the top-of-the-line top and bottom knife & abrasive planer in the industry. The machine self-centers the board to get the most usable wood and doesn’t split cupped boards, creating a much cleaner surface for the defector scanners. Our customers should expect yield savings between 3-5% on the wood itself, and also the rip optimization through scanners.

  • A rigid frame installed on 4 synchronous spindles
