DRILLTEQ C-800

CNC Machining Centers — Homag Group

The DRILLTEQ C-800 is a throughfeed drilling machine designed for efficient and precise drilling operations on wooden workpieces. Previously known as the Drilling system BST 800, it delivers reliable performance for component manufacturing.

The DRILLTEQ C-800 is a high-precision throughfeed CNC drilling machine purpose-built for automated hole production in wooden components and furniture elements. As a successor to the BST 800 drilling system, it combines consistent drilling accuracy with continuous material flow, eliminating manual positioning and enabling sustained production runs without operator intervention between cycles.

The machine accommodates workpieces from 250mm to 3,500mm in length and 100mm to 1,050mm in width, with material thicknesses ranging from 15mm to 60mm—spanning applications from thin veneered panels to solid structural components. Its throughfeed architecture means workpieces move continuously through the drilling zone, maximizing cycle efficiency and throughput in high-volume scenarios. The machine's positioning accuracy and repeatable hole placement make it suitable for multi-hole drilling patterns required in furniture frames, knock-down components, and case goods production.

The DRILLTEQ C-800 is designed for medium to industrial production environments processing 50+ units daily. It serves furniture manufacturers, cabinet shops scaling beyond manual operations, and component suppliers requiring consistent hole placement across batches of similar parts. The machine is most effective when drilling identical or near-identical patterns into standardized workpiece dimensions—typical in modular furniture, ready-to-assemble systems, and volume component supply.

Within the throughfeed drilling category, the C-800's working envelope and thickness capacity position it as a mid-range solution: larger than benchtop or single-spindle machines but more compact and accessible than full-scale production centers. It represents an economical step toward CNC automation for shops currently relying on manual drilling templates or basic production machines, without the capital investment of multi-function machining centers.

Applications

furniture assembly component drilling

industrial workshop

High-volume production of knock-down furniture components requiring multiple aligned holes for dowel joinery, cam locks, and fastener inserts. The DRILLTEQ C-800 handles panels up to 3,500mm length and 1,050mm width, drilling consistent multi-hole patterns across 50+ daily units. Typical applications include side panels, shelving, and frame components for modular seating and storage systems where repeatability and speed directly impact assembly line efficiency.

cabinet door and frame production

medium workshop

Automated drilling of hinge holes, handle mounting points, and internal shelf pin holes in cabinet doors and frames. The machine processes workpieces from 250mm to 3,500mm in length with precision positioning, eliminating manual jig setup and reducing touch labor. Thickness capacity of 15mm to 60mm covers solid wood frames, plywood substrates, and laminated panels typical in custom and semi-custom cabinet shops.

architectural millwork components

medium workshop

Production of architectural wood elements—railings, bannisters, decorative panels—requiring precise hole patterns for joinery, hardware mounting, and assembly. The machine's consistent accuracy supports complex multi-hole layouts on solid wood and engineered materials up to 3.5 meters long, suitable for custom orders and architectural specification work with tight tolerance requirements.

panel and component batch processing

industrial workshop

Batch production of pre-drilled panels and components for wholesalers and contract manufacturers. Throughfeed operation keeps material moving continuously, maximizing throughput on standardized part runs. The C-800 manages width up to 1,050mm and thicknesses 15–60mm, making it suitable for door frames, window components, shelving units, and structural elements shipped to furniture assemblers and builders.
