PM15 Planer/Molder
The Gold Standard Since 1921.
The new PM15 from Powermatic is loaded with features that make it a standout. Large 5HP motor gives the unit 15" wide planing capacity and enough power to run double knife sets for molding.
The stand is fully enclosed and
is equipped with integral casters for shop mobility. Two feed speeds, 10 and 20 fpm’s allow you to run quickly for maximum stock removal yet slower speeds yield a fine milled finish on decorative moldings. Opening
the hinged top with 4" dust collection port exposes the cutterhead, allowing for fast and easy tooling changes. This machine can use either single molding knives or 3 knife sets, whichever you choose. A long list of available accessories will make this machine a valuable addition to any shop.
