This Hombak D 63 is a used wood planer — also commonly referred to as a thicknesser — designed to reduce timber boards to a precise, uniform thickness by passing them beneath a rotating cutter block. Hombak is a German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for producing robust woodworking machinery, particularly planers and moulders used in joinery shops, furniture production, and timber processing.
The machine offers a planing width of 630 mm and a maximum planing height of 200 mm, making it well suited to processing wide planks and solid timber sections. The cutter block is a two-knife shaft, delivering a consistent cutting action across the full width of the workpiece.
Feed is handled by a toothed infeed roller, which grips rough or uneven stock securely and draws it into the machine reliably, while a smooth outfeed roller delivers the finished board cleanly without marking the planed surface. Two selectable feed speeds — 9 m/min and 18 m/min — allow the operator to match the feed rate to the timber species and depth of cut. The thicknessing table incorporates two height-adjustable rollers to support the workpiece correctly at the point of cutting. Kickback protection is fitted as standard, an important safety feature when processing timber under powered feed.
A knife setting gauge from Panhans is included with the machine, aiding precise and repeatable knife alignment during blade changes.
The machine weighs approximately 1,200 kg and measures roughly 1,200 × 1,100 × 1,300 mm (L × W × H) for transport purposes. It is offered used, in sold-as-seen condition, and is located near Aalen (postcode area 73430) in Germany. Dismantling and transport from the ex-works location can be arranged optionally through the seller.
