The Pointer/Capper machine is designed to simultaneously finish both ends of a fence post; milling a point on one end, and a chamfer on the other end. The standard machine will accommodate post diameters in the range 2" - 8" and post lengths in the range 8' - 10'. Special extended length versions of the machine are available which will allow post lengths of 16' or more to be accommodated without difficulty.
An infeed section (optional) is available which provides the ability to cut each post to a precise length, prior to the pointing and capping operation. This function is provided through use of (2) trim saws, combined with a variable speed chain to propel the posts through the saws.
Specifically designed electrical and hydraulic systems provide fully automatic operation of the machine's functions. An operator control pedestal contains all controls necessary for machine operation in a single location.
Resizing of the Pointer/Capper machine for varying post-lengths (within its design capacity) is accomplished hydraulically, minimizing both operator effort as well as resizing time.
