By

The Scheppach HMC 2600 jointer planer is a solid machine from the HMC series, which should not be confused with the HMS series. The main difference is that for the HMC there are many extensions available (the C stands for Combination), which is not the case for the HMS machines.

There is also a larger version, called the Scheppach HMC 3200. The main differences are that the 3200 only works on 400v, and that it has a transport/wheel set, which is not available for the HMC 2600.

What both machines have in common is that they can be extended in many ways, among which a table saw and spindle moulder set. These can be attached by changing the belt from the pulley, as can be seen in this video.

The HMC 2600 has sheet metal tables, which are more prone to bending, denting and rust than cast iron or aluminium tables.

This machine was still made in Germany (early to mid 1990s), in contrast to many Scheppach machines made later. It should not be confused with the HMC 2600 Ci, which was its successor.

  3. I am an eighty-year-old carpenter and have decided to give it up. I have been working with Scheppach hmc2600 (planner – thicknesser) for at least the last 10 years.
    Besides the above, I have also the Scheppach ibe16 attachment.
    Would you kindly advise what would be a good reselling price? Thank you

    • Hi Robert, sorry to hear you’ve had to give up woodworking. As to the resale value, I would estimate around 700-1100 EUR, depending on the condition.

      But it can vary a lot depending on your local market. Best bet is to check for similar machines on local used product websites.

      Hope that helps, Rob
