54HH vs 6559
Powermatic 54HH vs WEN Products 6559. Of the 4 figures both makers publish, none differs outright. 4 are worded too differently to set side by side: cutting width, cutterhead, table size and fence. Both are jointers with the same cutting width: cutting width 1/2" x 6" on the 54HH, 6-Inch on the 6559, in their makers' figures.

Stated differently, not directly comparable
The two makers put these figures in different terms, so the rows cannot be read as a match or a difference from these pages.
- Cutting width: 54HH: 1/2" x 6". 6559: 6-Inch.
- Cutterhead: 54HH: helical. 6559: two-blade 6-1/8 inch cutterhead.
- Table size: 54HH: 7-1/4 x 66. 6559: 6-1/4 x 28-1/2 inch.

Cited for one of the pair: only Powermatic's cited pages give motor, knives or inserts, table height, speed, dimensions and weight; only WEN Products' cited pages give current, cutting depth per pass, dust port, included and warranty. The other maker may publish the figure elsewhere; ask it rather than assume the 54HH and 6559 match there.
