Project Background As a core piece of equipment in modern wood processing, the development of woodworking planers is rooted in the global transformation and upgrading of the timber processing industry. With the acceleration of construction industrialization and the surge in demand for personalized home furnishings, traditional wood processing methods face dual challenges of efficiency and precision. Driven by the "Made in China 2025" and "Dual Carbon" strategies, the woodworking machinery industry is undergoing a profound transformation from labor-intensive to intelligent and green practices. Currently, the high-end custom furniture market is experiencing an annual growth rate of over 15%, and the demand for wooden components for prefabricated buildings is surging. These trends directly drive market demand for high-precision planing equipment. Simultaneously, with the penetration of German Industry 4.0 technologies, the digitalization level of woodworking machinery has significantly improved. The application of technologies like intelligent sensing and adaptive control has pushed machining accuracy beyond ±0.1mm. Increasingly stringent environmental policies prompt equipment manufacturers to continuously innovate in areas such as noise reduction, dust removal, and waste recycling, with international standards like the EU CE certification becoming industry entry barriers. Although core components still partially rely on imports, domestic enterprises have made breakthrough progress in key areas such as CNC systems and servo drives. The industry is currently in a critical period of transition from traditional machinery to intelligent equipment, providing vast development space for companies with technological innovation capabilities. | |

Efficient and Reliable Professional Solution | |
The woodworking planer's control system is constructed using FATEK series industrial automation products, forming a complete automated solution. The system core employs the FBs-32MAT-AC programmable logic controller (PLC), which features a 32-point I/O configuration and integrated 4-axis 200kHz high-speed pulse output, providing the equipment with stable logic control and precise motion control capabilities. The human-machine interface (HMI) utilizes the FATEK P5 series touch screen, which communicates with the PLC in real-time via Ethernet to achieve functions such as machining parameter setting, operational status monitoring, and fault alarm display. The motion control system adopts the FATEK SC3 series servo drive system, comprising servo drives, servo motors, and matching encoders to form closed-loop control, ensuring high precision in cutter shaft rotation and feed motion. The platform's reciprocating motion is driven by a DC motor, with position feedback provided by an optical encoder, and speed regulation is achieved through the PLC's PWM output. | |
