SCM introduces its latest drilling innovations

The new morbidelli cx220 cell with robot

The morbidelli cx220 drilling and dowelling flexible cell with robot creates all the parts of a piece of furniture more efficiently, even with pieces that differ considerably from one another.

The cell – which is part of the Smart&Human Factory production model for the furniture industry – produces one panel per minute and over 400 panels per shift with a single operator, in no more than 50m2.

Thanks to the exclusive layout patented by SCM, the cell offers two options for use: operator-free thanks to the integrated robot on the rear side which performs all the loading and unloading operations in complete autonomy for a continuous production cycle; with partial supervision by the operator who, in complete safety, can load and unload the panels at the front of the cell while the robot continues to operate on the opposite side.

Excellent drilling on reduced sizes

The machine has manifold benefits, offering:

“The lowest cycle times of any alternative on the market” and maximum productivity in machining “batch 1” thanks to exclusive solutions such as the 3D PROBE software application – which guarantees the reference for any kind of drilling on five sides – alongside shaped clamps that allow drilling and routing operations even inside the clamping area without the need to reposition the piece.

RO.AX spindles (Rotoaxial spindle technology) and 7.5 kW electrospindle with six-position tool changer.

60% higher productivity thanks to the two independent drilling and doweling heads with variable centre-to-centre distance, capable of working simultaneously on the panel

Worktable tailored to even the most delicate surfaces.

New morbidelli cx110 and pwx500 drilling machines

This new generation of versatile drilling machines offers high productivity, extreme precision and the possibility of integration into automated systems.

The two new solutions are to be found at either end of the vast range of morbidelli drilling machines. The cx110 model is mainly dedicated to companies that desire a compact solution that is versatile, efficient and capable of solving all the critical issues of flexible machining.

morbidelli pwx500, on the other hand, is for large furniture manufacturers and contractors looking for high-speed, connected and integrated drilling solutions without sacrificing the quality of the finishing and precision.

morbidelli cx110

The morbidelli cx110 drilling machine offers maximum flexibility in performing any kind of vertical and horizontal drilling in less than 8m2. The shaped clamp makes machining much easier because it drastically reduces the cases in which it is necessary to reposition the clamp, reducing the cycle times. 

Another advantage is represented by RO.AX spindles fitted on the drilling heads, with a rotation speed that can reach 8,000 rpm, maintaining a very high finishing quality.

The operator can efficiently and easily manage batch 1 drilling operations while having all the necessary tools always on board and benefiting from the advantages of an automatic six-position tool changer.

The accessibility and ease of loading and handling the pieces is another distinctive plus. The machine is also ideal for those who need to machine lacquered and delicate panels because the new worktable has been designed to avoid friction.

Drilling is done with extreme precision and the guarantee of always having the correct corresponding piece while the machine is operating, without the risk of slipping or bending. This happens thanks to a four-sensor 3D PROBE decimal probing system and a presser that ensure maximum workpiece stability during machining. 

This stability is guaranteed irrespective of the repositioning of the clamp and also in the unusual and elaborate machining. The slide bearings act as a continuous guide, aiding the operator and reducing possible errors with piece linearity.

morbidelli pwx500

The new morbidelli pwx500 is the ideal drilling solution for connected and integrated production and to achieve highly competitive production standards per shift on medium and large batches.

The drilling machine can work intensively over several shifts and is designed to significantly reduce tooling changes and other operations that cause unproductive time.

This new drilling machine is also synonymous with high efficiency. Indeed, it is “the only one on the market to offer up to five rows of spindles on the right and left in order to reach the extremities of the panel to make structural holes according to different production needs”.

Efficiency and high productivity combine with a considerable machining simplicity thanks to the optimiser software that controls the entire machine’s set up, the drilling steps and the integration of production lines consisting of several machines.

New Maestro 3Drill software

As well as two new machines, SCM has integrated a new drilling software, Maestro 3Drill, to apply the main advantages of morbidelli numerically controlled programming software to drilling machines. Some of the main advantages include the possibility of directly importing three-dimensional solids with automatic recognition of the holes to be performed. This speeds up and simplifies the user’s programming experience.
