scm system 9 - the new windows & doors integrated line

System integrated lines are the SCM’s technological solution dedicated to the large companies for the production of window and doors frames.
The new “system 9” line, which includes another absolute novelty, the “celaschi action” double-sided tenoning machine, is the last solution for industry.
This SCM line stands out for the rapidity in its setup change and the extreme flexibility in the management of work-pieces with different dimensions, allowing the manufacturing of up to 200 complete windows per working shift, even with medium-small batches. As with all the SCM “systems”, the integration of multiple machines enables to perform all the operations for producing windows frame: planing with the “superset nt” throughfeed moulder, tenoning with the new “celaschi action”, drilling and routing with the “fleximat” machining centre and profiling on both right and left sides with two “profitech” machines.
The new “celaschi action” double-sided tenoning machine, the beating heart of the “system 9” line, allows simultaneous tenoning of two elements of different lengths, widths and thicknesses, exploiting the principle of machining with the motors moving when the pieces are stationary. Among the plus points is a high degree of flexibility in the production of tenons, thanks to the presence of 4 electrospindles, each of which is served by a 6-position tool changer. It is thus possible to produce from 30 to 48 different tenons without any intervention by the operator.
Maestro active watch operator interface manages the whole line and it is designed to be easy to use and to import orders directly from company management software.

This is absolutely insane! Two things amaze me:
1) The unimaginable amount of engineering, design and fabrication that went into this line
2) How many windows do you need to make for this huge investment to be financially viable?
Wow... 😍😍😍
