This Panhans TYP 240 is a wood milling machine — also commonly referred to as a spindle moulder — used for shaping, profiling, and routing timber along a guided fence or template. Panhans is a long-established German manufacturer with a strong reputation in the woodworking machinery industry, known for producing precision spindle moulders, band saws, and related equipment for professional and industrial woodworking applications.
This 1997 machine is offered in used condition from a seller in Germany and is well specified for production work. The spindle accepts tooling on a 30 mm diameter and runs at four selectable speeds — 3,000, 4,500, 6,000, and 9,000 rpm — giving the operator flexibility to match cutting speed to the timber species and profile being worked. The spindle supports both clockwise and anticlockwise rotation, which is particularly useful when working with profile cutters that require the direction to be reversed depending on the tool orientation.
The machine features electric swivel of the spindle head, adjustable from -5° to +45°, allowing angled or bevelled profiles to be cut without repositioning the workpiece. Height adjustment of the spindle is also electrically controlled, and a digital display is fitted to confirm the set position. The milling fence is equipped with a Siko counter, providing precise and repeatable fence positioning.
The table measures 1,350 x 800 mm, offering a generous working surface for handling longer or wider timber sections. Dust extraction is provided via two 120 mm diameter extraction connections. The machine is wired for a three-phase 380 V supply, draws a connected load of 11 kW, and is rated at 30 A. The control panel is located on the top of the machine for convenient operator access.
