Thickness planers, also called bench planers or auto planers, shave rough boards down to an even, flat thickness. Carpenters, furniture makers and cabinet shops use them to size lumber, clean up reclaimed wood and make several boards exactly the same thickness for tables, doors and frames.
How to choose a thickness planer
- Width capacity: 8" and 10" planers suit small shops and narrow stock. 12" to 13" planers handle most furniture and door boards, and 15" industrial planers take wide slabs.
- Motor power: 1500W models are fine for softwood and occasional use. 1800W to 2400W motors keep their speed better on hardwood and long runs.
- Portable or industrial: benchtop planers can be carried to site. Floor-standing industrial machines are heavier and steadier for daily production.
- Blades: check that replacement blades are easy to get. Some models use reversible or replaceable knife sets.

Thickness planer or hand planer?
A thickness planer makes the faces of a board parallel and sets an exact thickness, so it is the right tool for preparing lumber. To trim a door edge or chamfer a beam on site, a handheld wood planer is quicker. Keep spare planer blades on hand, since sharp knives give a smoother finish and less tear-out. After planing, a sander takes the surface to its final finish.
