Woodworking Industry Applications

MulticamCNC Routing machine for woodworking.


Vacuum Table with Auto Tool ChangerThe new generation of MultiCam CNC routing machinery exhibits increased rigidity, strength and stability required by Furniture and Timber door manufacturers, Cabinet makers, Joinery shops, Shopfitters, Staircase manufacturers and Solid Surface Fabricators for machining simple or complex shapes quickly and easily.  Suitable materials for routing include HARDWOOD, PLYWOOD, MDF, CHIPBOARD and most COMPOSITES.

The overall rigidity and stability of the new Series II-S has been achieved by manufacturing the travelling gantry from STEEL instead of aluminium.  The linear bearings and rails across the face of the new steel gantry have been increased in size to cope with these heavier loads.  The Z axis ball screw has been increased in both length and diameter to cope with carrying heavier motors, such as the 7.0Kw HSD Automatic Tool Change spindle.  The X and Y drive system incorporates precision machined rack and pinion.

The overall increase in rigidity means vibration free operation which results in longer tool life, superior edge finish and higher feed rates, whilst being able to carry bigger and more powerful spindle motors through thicker materials.


A larger range of table tops are also now available including T-Slot top, removable table tops and Vacuum hold down tables with valved sectioning.  Standard process areas range from 8' x 4', 12' x 6' to 24' x 6'.  The vacuum hold down system incorporates ISO standard T-Slots for added functionality and is available with high displacement Rietschle vacuum pumps.

Spindle motors range from German manufactured Perskes to industry standard high frequency HSD spindles with ISO 30 tool holders.



 
Fully Automatic Carousel Tool Change
 
Automatic Tool ChangerThe fully Automatic Carousel Tool Change system offers the ability to further increase productivity by reducing idle time whilst tools are being changed. 

The automatic tool changer is fully integrated in to the Multicam machine with safety in operation a key feature of the mechanism. Compact in design and elegant in execution the fully concealed tool change carousel sets the standard for integrated tool change units on Flat Bed CNC Routing machines.

Because the tool change carousel travels on the machine gantry this means that a tool change can be executed at any position on the machine without the gantry first having to return to a particular position on the machine. This results in a greatly reduced cycle time.

If you manufacture components that require the use of multiple tools in their production, then a fully Automatic Tool Changer will see major improvements in efficiency. Couple this with our high performance vacuum table and you have a system that incorporates the latest technology with ease of
use.

To get the maximum benefit from your tool changer our Toolpath software allows you to easily incorporate tool change commands without having to learn a single command!



 
Nested Based Manufacturing
 
Automatic Tool ChangerNested Based Manufacturing (N.B.M.) has recently been recognised as one of the most significant advances in the Woodworking Industry in recent times.

Put simply N.B.M allows you to maximise the potential of your Multicam CNC Flat bed routing machine through the use of software packages such as Cabinet Vision, Cabnetware, Pytha etc designed for the cabinet making, kitchen, wardrobe and timber door industries.

Projects are designed in the software which then automatically creates cutting files for the machine.  This ensures consistency from the inception of the project thorough to its completion.
