Automatic Cut Control

The A.C.C. is a sectional, mechanical device designed and developed by Newman Whitney to offset the fixed bottom head cut found on conventional knife planers. This device provides more equal cut distribution between the top and bottom cutterheads. Varying bottom head cut provides more equal distribution of hit-and-miss surfaces on both sides of the lumber which results in increased yield and lumber grade improvement. Yield increases of 5% to 20% can be obtained with use of the A.C.C. option.
