SCM / NESTING

One sheet. Precisely machined components.

See nesting from above: the sheet stays still while the CNC head moves between drilling positions and follows the component outlines.

Sheet and workholding

A full sheet rests on the sacrificial MDF spoilboard. Vacuum holds it on the table. Light outlines show the planned layout of five components; the sheet has not been cut yet.

Example layout: two sides and three horizontal components.

Illustration of the principle, not a specific CNC program. Dimensions, tools, sequence and timing are schematic. Small-part workholding and routing strategy depend on the material and equipment. The extraction hood and housing are simplified for clarity.

MACHINES FOR SPECIFIC TASKS

Three processes. A sensible choice.

morbidelli x100 nesting centre

SELECTED TECHNOLOGY

morbidelli x100 / nesting

CNC centre for panel cutting, milling and drilling. SmartCut adjusts the cutting sequence so the element remains securely held during machining. Vacuum zones and options for smaller pieces are selected according to your products.

Maestro lab enables geometry and machining preparation; the nesting module is intended for arranging elements. Marking and connection with furniture design software require the appropriate modules and verified data transfer.

SCM olimpic 500, edge banding machine

SELECTED TECHNOLOGY

olimpic 500 / edge banding

Compact edge banding machine for small and medium-sized businesses. Multi-radius machining allows adaptation to the edge; the extent of automatic settings depends on the equipment.

The SGP-E glue application unit is designed for use with EVA and PUR with the appropriate changeover procedure. Maestro active edge links unit control in a single interface.

SCM dmc sd 60, wide belt sanding machine

SELECTED TECHNOLOGY

dmc sd 60 / surface preparation

Wide belt sander for calibrating and sanding solid wood and wood-based panels. For veneered or lacquered surfaces, the appropriate combination of units and sanding shoe is selected.

The eye-S electronic programmer enables work programs to be saved. With sensitive surfaces, the choice of segmented shoe and the correct pressure is important, not just the belt grit.

More options for your workflow

Axis count or rated power alone do not determine the right machine. Material flow, geometry, clamping and the required finish matter.

Panel sizing

An automatic horizontal beam saw for chipboard, MDF, plywood and other wood-based panels. It is useful when large boards are first cut into rectangular components, with drilling, routing and edgebanding carried out at other stations.

The pusher positions the material, the pressure beam holds it and the saw carriage makes the cut. LED guidance helps follow the steps. SAW-SET tool adjustment and FLEXCUT cutting options depend on the configuration.

  • Cutting lengths: 3,300 / 3,800 / 4,300 mm.
  • Blade projection: 60 / 80 / 95 mm on p60 / p80 / p95.
  • Standard saw carriage speed: 6–60 m/min; a faster version is optional.

CNC drilling of pre-cut components

A compact centre for face and edge holes, grooves and selected routing operations. It processes individual prepared panels; it does not replace full-sheet cutting on a nesting table.

3D PROBE checks dimensions in X, Y and Z. The F19L and F23L heads have 13 vertical and 6 or 10 horizontal spindles respectively. Routing units, six-position tool changing and integration with a panel return or robot cell depend on the equipment.

  • Panel length: 200–3,050 mm; width: 50–950 mm.
  • Thickness: 8–60 mm; maximum weight: 60 kg.
  • Programming: Maestro lab; optional ER32 or HSK63-F routing units.

Data apply to the stated model. Equipment options and machining feasibility are confirmed against your workpiece.

SOFTWARE / CLEARLY UNDERSTOOD

What the program prepares.
What the operator does.

Prepare once, reuse the knowledge.

In Maestro lab, we can import DXF, define tools and machining operations, and use ready-made applications or macros. The technology library helps repeat a proven production method with new geometry. Additional modules cover 3D machining, nesting, marking and other tasks.

Maestro active CNC is the operator interface on supported CNCs: work organisation, user roles, program overview and operating assistance. This is a different task from drawing and preparation in CAD/CAM.

Easier repetition, clear responsibility.

The operator still checks the material, clamping, tools and first piece. Pre-prepared programs reduce repetitive setup, but do not replace training and knowledge of safe working.

The edge banding machine uses Maestro active edge, while the dmc sd 60 uses the eye-S programmer. A shared brand does not mean automatic data connectivity for all machines. We determine transfer from your furniture software, labels and traceability according to the actual process.

Before choosing a machine

Does nesting replace every other machine?

No. Cutting and some drilling can share a CNC table, but edgebanding, edge holes and certain underside operations require suitable additional equipment or another step. Selection is checked against an actual component.

When should I choose a saw and a separate drilling CNC?

When much of the range is rectangular and you want to organise sizing and drilling separately. Compare batch size, handling, drilling volume, grain direction and sheet yield — not just one machine’s speed.

Can my design software connect to Maestro lab?

Check an actual exported file, hole data, edge information, licences and the postprocessor. Importing geometry does not automatically transfer every machining parameter.
