Morticers, also known as mortice machines, are essential woodworking tools used to cut clean, accurate square or rectangular holes in timber for traditional mortise and tenon joints. Using a square chisel and auger working in combination, these machines allow precise, repeatable cuts that are vital for strong and professional joinery work. Morticers are available in a range of configurations, from bench-mounted models for smaller workshops to heavy-duty floor-standing machines for industrial use. Ideal for manufacturing doors, windows, and furniture, morticers help craftsmen achieve consistent results with speed, accuracy, and efficiency.
