A planer is a woodworking machine used to smooth and flatten wood surfaces, ensuring uniform thickness and a level finish. It operates by feeding the wood through a set of rotating blades that shave off thin layers from the surface, producing a smooth, even finish. Planers are essential tools in woodworking for creating precise, flat surfaces and achieving consistent thickness across boards.
