SCM, a global leading producer of secondary woodworking machinery, is preparing to illustrate a cutting-edge selection of its best technological solutions and services for the market at the 13th edition of IndiaWood.

The Italian Group will attend the Asian international trade fair, confirming the strong attention given to the Indian region, the strategic investments made to strengthen SCM’s direct presence in this area and its intention of being an all-around business partner for both industrial and artisan companies in the woodworking and furniture manufacturing sectors.

The varied proposal of technologies on demonstration will be particularly suited to Indian customers and will meet every machining requirement both in panel and solid wood processing.

Just some state-of-the-art technologies that visitors will be able to find are:

CNC machining centers: morbidelli p200 - This universal cnc machining centre is conceived to satisfy any drilling, routing and edgebanding requirement. Just a few clicks allow you to design and manufacture pieces of any shape and easily apply several typologies of edges. This “All-in-one technology” solution is unique on the market in having an unrivalled price-performance ratio and in offering several advantages.

Morbidelli p200 also offers a superior quality thanks to the edgebanding unit which can process edges up to 80mm in height. Other advantages are the head borings fitted with RO.AX spindles with greater rigidity and a rotation speed up to 8000 rpm, the 5-axis JQX electrospindle for an unparalleled finish and the FAST 14 tool change that ensures a tool change in less than 15 seconds.

The HE-PODs, synonymous with flexibility and innovation, bring the third dimension to the worktable surface. The machine can lift up the pieces to be processed and avoid unnecessary repositioning, making the most of the worktable size and reducing production cycle times by 30%.

The Maestro edge software is ideal to manage and optimise the entire routing, drilling and edge banding process of panels and shaped components. The application guarantees maximum simplicity, unparalleled performance levels and a considerable reduction in the production cycle times.

Edgebanding: stefani kd - A heavy duty and versatile edgebander for working different types of panels, even with delicate surfaces thanks to the upper belt presser.

The working speed of up to 20 m/min and the processing of solid wood strips up to 12mm thick make this edgebander ideal for industrial companies that need to produce panels in large quantities and with extreme quality.

The SGP glue pot, supplied as standard, with the special non-stick plasma treatment, allows the use of two different types of glue, EVA and PUR, for perfect edgebanding quality even on the latest generation panels. The optimal glue dosage and the special spreading roller ensure a perfect glue line. The SGP glue pot can be loaded both manually and with automatic pre-melters and the glues can be interchanged thanks to the automatic glue change/cleaning cycle with unloading onto the removable collection box. The possibility of having two premelters at the same time, the QMS-P for EVA glue and the PU BOX L for PUR glue, always guarantees the best glue quality.

Wide belt sanders: dmc sd70 - The dmc sd range of high-tech sanding solutions is ideal for small-size manufacturers who look for effectiveness, efficiency and a high level of versatility. In fact, dmc sd 70 is perfect for different types of machining. In the furniture sector, this wide belt sander is ideal for calibrating MDF, plywood and solid wood as well as sanding veneered panels and finishing painted surfaces.

The configurations can vary from two or three units, combining roller, pad, superfinishing, brush units as well as crossbelt unit.

In recent years, the dmc sd range has also been enhanced with new solutions that are unique on the market such as the led bar to optimise belt wear, the interchangeable brush unit to produce different machining processes (paint, structuring, chamfering etc.) and lastly the new eye-S control panel with Maestro active interface.

IndiaWood visitors will also be able to discover other SCM technologies for windows and doors manufacturing, as well as joinery machines.
