    Default Spoil Board left Wavy

    We have a new machine and the spoil board was left wavy. Technician was at a loss. Sent Cutter head back for inspection as was claimed to be shadow checked (?) and confirmed to be fine.

    Any ideas why this happens. Looks and feels like very smave waves like sand on the beach.

    Here is the cutterhead before it was sent back. Thanks

    A spoilboard cutter can't cut anything but a flat surface, unless the spindle is out of tram.
