I was in the shop I used to work at yesterday and was checking out the SCMI L'Invincible 24" planer they bought new 9 months ago. This is a custom shop with 6 people on the floor. They just rotated the 140-odd carbide inserts for the first time. A few had nicks, and all had dulled to the point that increased current draw on the cutterhead was automatically kicking the feed motor down to low speed. The job took a couple of hours. For reference, the previous planer was an SCMI S520 with straight knives and onboard grinder which probably got tuned up every 3 to 4 weeks on average. The new unit is unbelievably quiet and is said to do an excellent job. Like most new gear it has electronic controls as well as air adjusted pressure rollers. I didn't ask what it cost.
