Expect a smoother finish in softwood, hardwood & difficult grain. Low Sound Levels = Less noise by up to 50%. Each blade is moving less air and taking a smaller cut. More blades = Reduced energy consumption. Each cut uses less energy, overall saving can be 30%. TC (Tungsten carbide) Cutters = longer cutter life, up to 10 times compared to HSS. Each cutter can be rotated when worn.
