Key features and applications

Built for demanding production environments, the BOSS RICHTER 4-Sided Planer delivers powerful, stable machining for CLT, LVL, and solid wood materials. Independent universal-joint transmission on every top and bottom feed roller provides full, consistent power to the workpiece, while the floating infeed system improves feeding stability—even when processing heavy or high-moisture content material. Variable feed speed allows operators to optimize machining performance for different applications and material conditions.

A rigid, wear-resistant worktable with a hard chrome-plated and precision-ground surface provides smooth material flow and long-term durability. The helical cutterhead with profiled cutters combines planing and moulding in a single pass, delivering high-efficiency production, excellent surface quality, reduced noise, and extended tool life. Powered upper mechanism adjustment and PLC touchscreen control simplify machine setup and operation, while the follow-up chamfering system automatically tracks changing workpiece dimensions for consistent chamfering without manual adjustment. Together, these systems provide reliable throughput, precise machining, and repeatable results in high-production environments

YJF FC300 certified grey cast iron frame

The Magnitude is built on an FC300 certified grey cast iron frame — the sam e grade used in precision machine tool manufacturing. Specifically formulated to absorb temperature fluctuation and maximize vibration dampening, this foundation delivers consistent, accurate mouldings pass after pass. The result is reduced wear on machine components, extended service life, and the dimensional reliability that high-volume production demands.

Driven side-pressure feed roller

The powered side infeed roller delivers ad ditional lateral feeding force, helping guide material smoothly and consistently into the machine. This provides improved feeding stability, better control of the workpiece, and more reliable performance—particularly when processing wider or heavier material. 
Driven Side-Pressure Feed Roller

Easy to draw cutterhead

The easy-access cutterhead design and preci sion linear guide system enable fast, effortless cutterhead changes, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.

Optimal cutting position. extended tool life.

The moving fence system optimizes the cutting position for each workpiece, promoting consistent machining quality while reducing unnecessary tool and machine wear. By maintaining an ideal cutting position, it helps extend tool life, minimize operating costs, and reduce stress on critical machine components for long-term durability and reliable performance.

Pneumatic floating bottom infeed roller

The pneumatically controlled floating bottom infeed roller automatically accommodates variations in material thickness, maintaining smooth, consistent contact throughout the feeding process. With up to 5 mm of floating movement, it helps improve feeding stability, reduce material movement, and ensure a more uniform and reliable feed.
Floating Bottom INfeed

Helical cutterhead with profiled cutters

The helical cutterhead system with profiled cutters combines moulding and planing in a single continuous feed, delivering efficient, high-quality machining in one operation. The helical cutting action produces a smoother, cleaner surface while reducing cutting noise and vibration. Optimized cutter geometry also helps distribute wear more evenly, extending tool life and reducing maintenance and operating costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can the BOSS Richter process?

The BOSS Richter is built for demanding production environments and is designed to machine CLT, LVL, and solid wood materials. 

Can the BOSS Richter perform planing and moulding in one pass?

Yes. Its helical cutterhead with profiled cutters combines planing and moulding in a single continuous feed, helping deliver efficient production and high-quality surface finishes. 

What are the main benefits of the BOSS Richter's helical cutterhead?

The helical cutterhead with profiled cutters produces smoother and cleaner surfaces while reducing cutting noise and vibration. Its cutter geometry also distributes wear more evenly, helping extend tool life and reduce maintenance and operating costs. 

What is the maximum working width and thickness of the BOSS Richter?

The BOSS Richter has a working width of 200–1,350 mm (7.9–53.1") and a working thickness of 40–650 mm (1.6–25.6"). 

How does the BOSS Richter maintain stable feeding?

The machine uses independent universal-joint transmission on its top and bottom feed rollers, a floating infeed system, a driven side-pressure feed roller, and a pneumatically controlled floating bottom infeed roller. These systems help maintain consistent feeding, including when processing heavy or high-moisture material.
