Timber merchants can boost revenue, efficiency and quality with a machine that is easy use and can handle a range of custom orders with ease.
Timber and builders’ merchants are always looking for ways to expand their product offerings and enhance customer service to stay ahead of the competition. Offering something unique is an excellent strategy to attract both trade and public customers through the door.
While standard-sized planed timber is a common staple, how do you handle requests for non-standard sections? Do you turn them away, unsure of the rest of the order, or do you accept the challenge and risk wishing you hadn’t? Many forward-thinking merchants are already tapping into the benefits of a quick-turnaround plane to size service, increasing both revenue and margins. But the key to success lies in having the right equipment.
Enter the Weinig Cube. This machine is the ultimate solution for merchants looking to handle custom orders with ease. This innovative four-sided planer can be safely operated by almost anyone after just 20 minutes of training. It sets new benchmarks in simplicity and efficiency without compromising on quality.
With a fully graphical touchscreen interface, The Cube requires no mechanical adjustments, ensuring complete safety with no contact with sharp blades or moving parts. When it’s time to replace the blades, the process couldn’t be simpler: the reversible knives slide out of the knife holder, easily turning over for a quick swap. It’s a low-cost, self-locating solution with no headaches.
The Cube handles timber sections ranging from 260 x 160mm down to 15 x 8mm, with automatic size adjustments via a user-friendly touch screen. It’s designed for immediate response to customer demands, and because it doesn’t require a skilled machine operator, you can ensure consistent, high-quality results every time. The result? Exceptional service that builds customer loyalty.
With over 260 Cube machines already installed in the UK, you can rest easy knowing that Weinig UK is behind this equipment. The Cube is supported by the very manufacturer that designed it, making it a reliable, worry-free investment.
