The use of a mortiser is essential in carpentry and cabinetmaking for making mortises, holes of different shapes to insert tenons, especially for assembling pieces of wood.
Mortising can be done in different ways and with different types of machines depending on your needs.
The single-bit mortiser that is adapted to the end of the shaft of its thicknesser-planer or with an independent motor.
The square chisel mortiser that looks like a drill press but is suitable for woodworking.
So you will find a choice of mortisers here, depending on whether you are a professional or an individual, for carpentry or DIY, one of these machine tools is made for you!
The mortiser with bits that can be adapted to the end of your thicknesser is the most economical way to make a mortise because it works with the thicknesser-planer motor. However, it has its limits because its capacities are more or less reduced depending on the size of the machine.
A variant then comes into play: the mortiser with chisels! Offering the possibility of making square mortises thanks to its chisel, this mortiser benefits from its own motor and works easily like a drill press! Equipped with a more interesting carriage than on a classic mortiser with bits, the mortiser with chisel can, depending on the model, work large pieces of wood such as doors from the back if the machine is equipped with a pivoting head: a great advantage!
Carpentry professionals will more easily turn to another type of mortiser: the mortiser with bits! Rotation inversion, large cutting capacities, powerful motor, table height adjustment, device with different drilling positions, techniques that will please the most demanding!
Whatever its shape, the mortiser remains an essential and indispensable machine for carpentry, the ally of your woodworking combination, your jointer and your woodworking tools!
