Drilling and Dowel Insertion

 

Our CNC-controlled drilling and dowel insertion machines are designed for precision, speed, and flexibility. These single-sided work centers bore holes, apply glue, and insert dowels—automating key joinery tasks with repeatable accuracy. Machines can be customized with vertical/horizontal drills, grooving saws, and routers for tailored production needs.

Key Features:

  • CNC precision for consistent boring and dowel placement

  • Simultaneous glue application and dowel insertion

  • Configurable units:

    • Vertical and horizontal drilling heads

    • Grooving saws for dado or slot cutting

    • Vertical and horizontal routing units

  • Designed for panel materials and solid wood

  • Ideal for high-speed, repeatable assembly processes

Common Applications:

  • Box and cabinet assembly – Align and secure components with dowels for a tight fit

  • Panel construction – Join flat panels into frames or furniture structures

  • Drawer assembly – Fast, clean joins for durable drawer boxes

  • Subassemblies – Prepare parts for final construction or shipment

  • Furniture manufacturing – Chairs, case goods, and shelf units

  • Custom joinery – For architectural millwork or specialty builds

  • Reference drilling – Accurately locate parts for secondary operations

This process ensures precise part alignment, strong structural bonds, and reduced labor—all while increasing speed and consistency in your production line.
