Barrel Head Tenoning Machine
Double-Sided Simultaneous Machining
Both edges of the stave are processed in one pass – left edge gets a groove (or tenon), right edge gets the matching profile.
Precision Cutter Heads
High-speed steel (HSS) or carbide-tipped cutter blocks create exact tongue & groove dimensions. Quick-change for different profiles.
Automatic Stave Feeding
Variable-speed feed rollers pull staves through the machine smoothly. No manual pushing required.
Adjustable for Various Thicknesses & Widths
Anti-Kickback Fingers
Safety device prevents staves from being thrown back.
Dust Extraction Ports
Two outlets for connecting to a dust collector – keeps work area clean.
A barrel head (or head) is not a single piece of wood – it is assembled from multiple narrow staves joined edge-to-edge. The strength and tightness of those edge joints determine whether your barrel head will crack, leak, or last for years. Our Barrel Head Stave Tenoning Machine cuts precise tongue (tenon) and groove (mortise) profiles on both sides of each stave, creating a perfect interlocking joint that withstands liquid pressure and seasonal wood movement.
Why a Dedicated Head Stave Jointing Machine?
Simple butt joints or unprofiled edges rely solely on glue, which fails over time.Our Barrel Head Stave Tenoning Machine interlocking:
Tongue & groove fit – prevents lateral shifting and gap formation.
No Glue– the Tenoning for a stronger bond.
Consistent geometry – every stave matches perfectly, reducing sanding and rework.
High output – process 300–500 staves per hour.
