Minimax CU 300C
Solid Wood Processing โ SCM Group
Universal combined machine for craftsmen workshops offering essential functionality with excellent price-to-performance ratio. Ideal for solid wood processing with integrated joinery capabilities.
The Minimax CU 300C is a universal combination woodworking machine that integrates jointing, planing, sawing, and spindle moulding functionality into a single compact unit, designed specifically for craftsmen and small-to-medium workshops processing solid wood. This multi-function approach eliminates the need for separate machines while maintaining the precision and reliability expected in professional joinery and furniture production environments.
The machine's technical architecture centers on three primary work units: a 300mm wide jointer cutterhead with a 1510mm bed length for face and edge jointing, a parallel fence rip capacity of 820mm coupled with a 1600-2600mm sliding table for crosscutting, and a spindle moulder with variable speeds from 1700 to 9000 rpm accommodating tools up to 210mm diameter. The cutterhead employs a 72mm Cutterlock system with three standard 300x30x3mm knives, enabling efficient stock removal and consistent surface finishes. Power delivery across all three units comes from three single-phase motors totaling 4.8 Hp, making the CU 300C compatible with standard workshop electrical infrastructure without requiring three-phase installation.
This machine targets professional craftsmen and small production workshops (typically 3-15 employees) processing solid wood stock for furniture components, cabinet parts, and custom millwork where floor space is limited but operational versatility is essential. The combination of jointing for face and edge preparation, precision saw capacity for ripping and crosscutting up to 100mm projection, and integral moulding capability at variable spindle speeds enables single-operator workflow for small-batch production runs and made-to-order work, particularly in European and North American craft-focused woodworking sectors.

Applications
custom millwork
small workshopCraftsmen producing custom door frames, window casings, and architectural trim components use the CU 300C to prepare rough lumber through jointing (300mm width), rip and crosscut components on the integrated saw (820mm rip capacity), and execute moulding profiles on the spindle unit at 4000-7000 rpm. A single operator can manage the complete machining sequence for architectural components from raw stock to finished profile in one workstation.
timber construction
medium workshopTimber frame and structural woodworking shops employ the CU 300C for preparing and dressing solid timber components prior to assembly. The jointing unit flattens and squares edges on substantial stock, the saw unit with 1600-2600mm sliding table crosscuts to precise lengths, and the spindle moulding capability creates decorative or functional profiles on beams and structural members at lower production volumes than dedicated line systems.
cabinet making
medium workshopMedium-sized cabinet shops utilize the CU 300C as a primary preparation and moulding station for solid wood face frames, doors, and interior components. The machine's ability to joint wide stock (300mm), rip components up to 820mm, and produce consistent moulding profiles at selectable spindle speeds (1700-9000 rpm) supports batch production workflows for semi-custom residential and commercial cabinetry without requiring multiple dedicated machines.
solid wood crafting
small workshopSmall furniture makers and wood artisans rely on the CU 300C's combination functionality to process solid wood panels and components for tables, cabinets, and decorative pieces. The 1510mm jointer bed ensures flat reference surfaces, the 820mm rip capacity handles standard panel widths, and the variable-speed spindle (1700-9000 rpm) enables both heavy routing and fine detail work on edge profiles and decorative elements.
