A pod-and-rail CNC machining centre built for shops producing cabinet doors, window frames, stair components and other rail-and-stile work where a flat-bed nesting machine is the wrong tool. Six pneumatically clamped pods hold the workpiece clear of the table so the router can profile all four edges plus both faces in a single setup, with no spoilboard consumption and no vacuum loss on narrow parts.

The twin-zone table allows pendulum operation: the operator loads one side while the gantry machines the other, which typically lifts throughput 30 to 40 percent over single-zone working on short-run door batches.

Key features

  • Six 16 in pneumatic pods on twin rails with laser positioning guides
  • 12 HP liquid-cooled spindle rated for continuous profiling duty
  • 8-position gantry-mounted carousel tool changer
  • Twin independent work zones for pendulum load-while-cutting operation
  • 15 in touchscreen control with USB and Ethernet job transfer
  • Automatic tool length measurement and timed spindle warm-up cycle
  • Full perimeter fencing with light curtains on both load stations
