Gantry planer is mainly used for planing large workpieces, and can also clamp multiple parts on the workbench for simultaneous processing. It is an industrial machine tool. It is mainly used for planing, milling and grinding the plane of heavy workpieces in one installation.

Working principle The planing process of gantry planer is a process of relative motion between workpiece (placed on planer) and planer.
