Chisel Mortise Machine
Product Code : LSK-WWPT-10718
Chisel Mortise Machine (SKU LSK-WWPT-10718), also called a hollow chisel mortiser, cuts square and rectangular mortises in timber. A drill bit turning inside a hollow square chisel clears the waste while the chisel squares the corners, so a clean mortise is made in one plunge. Joinery and furniture trainees in ITI, polytechnic and TVET workshops use it to make mortise-and-tenon joints. Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India to institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
This mortiser has a 1 HP spindle motor running at 3,400 rpm and takes hollow chisels from 1/4 in to 3/4 in (about 6 to 19 mm). The chuck holds bits up to 1-1/8 in (about 28.6 mm). The work is clamped on the machine table and the chisel is lowered by lever to cut each mortise.

Applications and Experiments for the Chisel Mortise Machine
The chisel mortise machine lets trainees cut accurate, repeatable mortises for frames, doors, chairs and tables far faster than by hand. Exercises cover marking out, choosing a chisel to match the tenon, setting depth stops, clamping the work and checking the fit of the finished joint.
- ITI Carpenter and Wood Work Technician trades: mortise-and-tenon joint exercises.
- Door and window frame modules: through and stopped mortises in stiles.
- Furniture-making courses: leg-and-rail joints for tables and chairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size mortises can it cut?
It takes hollow chisels from 1/4 in to 3/4 in (about 6 to 19 mm) wide; longer mortises are made by overlapping successive cuts along the marked line.
How does a hollow chisel mortiser work?
A bit rotating at 3,400 rpm inside a square hollow chisel bores out the waste while the chisel edges pare the corners square as the head is lowered.

Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, as a TVET lab equipment supplier for carpentry and joinery workshops.
What table size does it have?
Table dimensions are not stated clearly in the listing. Ask through the contact page and the quotation will give the table size for the model offered.
