Gabbiani VK
Panel Processing — SCM Group
Vertical panel saw designed to make horizontal and vertical cuts of different types of wood materials with a single main blade. Offers flexible cutting solutions with pneumatic worktable movement.
The Gabbiani VK is a vertical panel saw purpose-built for precision crosscutting and ripping operations on sheet materials and solid wood panels. As a single-blade vertical configuration, it executes both horizontal and vertical cuts on the same machine without tool changes, making it a space-efficient solution for workshops requiring versatile panel processing without the footprint of dual-purpose equipment.
The machine's technical foundation centers on a 3.7 kW motor driving a 250mm blade at 5300 rpm, enabling clean cuts through materials up to 60mm in thickness. The working envelope accommodates horizontal cuts up to 4200mm and vertical cuts up to 4200mm in length, with vertical cut heights reaching 2200mm—specifications that position the VK for mid-sized panel formats common in European production. Pneumatic worktable movement provides repeatable positioning without manual adjustment drift, critical for maintaining tolerance stacks across batch production. Two fixed stops for vertical cuts enable quick indexing between repeated cut positions.
The Gabbiani VK targets medium-sized wood processing operations—cabinet shops, custom millwork studios, and panel fabricators—producing volumes between 50-500 panels weekly where material utilization and cut quality matter equally. It suits operations working with plywood, MDF, solid wood panels, and laminated boards in thicknesses from 6mm to 60mm. The machine's single-blade architecture reduces complexity and maintenance overhead compared to multi-blade systems while delivering the precision needed for furniture components and architectural millwork where edge quality affects finishing costs.

Applications
solid wood panel ripping
small workshopSmall furniture makers and solid wood craftspeople use the Gabbiani VK for breaking down purchased panel stock into working blanks—ripping edge-glued panels to width and crosscutting to length for tabletops, shelving, and case sides. The single-blade simplicity and 60mm capacity handle solid wood panels and laminated edges without complexity, keeping tool maintenance minimal in a small shop environment.
architectural millwork panel processing
medium workshopMillwork fabricators cutting architectural panels (veneered plywood, solid wood boards) for interior cladding and custom casework rely on the VK's vertical cut height (2200mm) to process full-height wall paneling in single passes. The two vertical cut stops allow rapid indexing between groove spacing or pattern repeats, reducing setup time on jobs requiring multiple identical cross-sections.
flooring and trim production
medium workshopFlooring workshops and trim manufacturers use the VK for crosscutting engineered flooring planks and solid hardwood trim boards to shipping lengths (vertical cuts to 4200mm). The 250mm blade running at 5300 rpm delivers clean cross-grain cuts on finished surfaces without chipping, critical for products that go directly to job sites without additional machining.
cabinet component production
medium workshopCabinet shops use the Gabbiani VK to prepare sheet stock for case construction—ripping plywood and MDF panels to component widths (horizontal cuts to 4200mm), then crosscutting to length (vertical cuts to 4200mm). The 60mm thickness capacity handles edge-banded panels and solid wood blocking. Pneumatic worktable repeatability ensures all sides of a cabinet box remain square across production runs of 100+ units weekly.
