Makita Planers

The Makita 2012NB is a compact, high‑precision planer and thicknesser, designed for professional woodworking and demanding workshop use. It is ideal for dimensioning and surface finishing of solid and laminated timber, delivering excellent cutting quality. 

Powered by a 1650 W motor, the cutter head runs at 8,500 rpm, ensuring smooth and consistent results. The machine offers a maximum planing width of 304 mm, with adjustable cutting depth depending on material width:

• up to 3.0 mm for narrower boards
• up to 1.5 mm for wider boards

A feed rate of 8.5 m/min ensures efficient material throughput with a high‑quality finish. 

Makita’s Interna‑Lok automated head clamp system significantly reduces snipe, while double‑edged HSS blades allow fast blade changes and extended service life. Despite its powerful performance, the 2012NB is exceptionally quiet (approx. 83–85 dB) and lightweight at around 27 kg, making it easy to transport between job sites.
