Ironwood BR Series

The Ironwood BR Series is a multi-spindle boring and dowel insertion system designed for high-precision, multi-row drilling operations in woodworking production. Available in single-head (BR23 with 23 spindles) and dual-head (DBR50 with 50 total spindles) configurations, these machines execute complex drilling patterns in a single clamping cycle, eliminating repositioning time and improving part accuracy. The 32 mm center distance between spindles enables consistent row spacing across component widths, while pneumatic head rotation from 0 to 90 degrees allows vertical, horizontal, and 45-degree boring angles without manual tool changes. The BR Series distinguishes itself through synchronized multi-spindle architecture and integrated quick-chuck technology. The dual-head DBR50 configuration provides up to 50 simultaneous drilling points, reducing cycle times for high-volume production compared to sequential boring methods. Pneumatic clamps (3 per head on BR23, 6 per head on DBR50) ensure reliable workpiece securing across the 3000 mm extension fence, while digital readouts support repeatable setups and rapid changeovers between jobs. Flexible electrical supply options (single-phase 230V or three-phase 230V/575V) allow integration into existing workshop power infrastructure. These machines serve medium and industrial woodworking operations producing cabinet components, furniture frames, and construction elements requiring bulk drilling of shelf pin holes, dowel holes, or hinge cup borings. The extended 3000 mm fence accommodates solid wood stock and engineered panels up to standard sheet widths, making the system suitable for batch production runs of 50–500+ units per job. The BR Series' efficiency gains are most pronounced in applications where traditional single-spindle boring would require multiple passes or manual repositioning—reducing labor time and improving dimensional consistency across large production batches.
