Nova Si 40
Solid Wood Processing — SCM Group
The Nova Si 40 is a circular saw with tilting blade designed for professional woodworking applications. It delivers quality performance without compromise for solid wood processing.
The Nova Si 40 is a professional-grade circular saw engineered for precision cutting of solid wood materials in mid-range production environments. Featuring a tilting blade mechanism, this machine delivers consistent crosscutting and angled operations essential for quality woodworking output. The machine accommodates a maximum sawblade diameter of 400mm with variable projection capabilities (138mm at 90° and 98mm at 45°), enabling versatile cutting depths across different angles and material thicknesses.
Key technical capabilities include a generous cutting width of 1270mm on the parallel fence, allowing operators to process wider stock without repositioning. The squaring stroke options of 2600mm or 3200mm provide flexibility for different workshop layouts and material lengths, while the tilting blade design enables both perpendicular and angled cuts with precision. Power delivery ranges from 5kW to 6kW three-phase motors available in both 50Hz and 60Hz configurations, ensuring reliable performance across global electrical standards.
The Nova Si 40 is positioned for medium-sized woodworking workshops and custom millwork operations that require consistent quality without the complexity or footprint of larger format equipment. This machine suits producers working with solid wood components—furniture parts, cabinet panels, architectural millwork—where blade angle versatility and fence capacity directly impact workflow efficiency. The mid-range specification and proven SCM engineering make it suitable for workshops transitioning from manual to semi-automated processing or those requiring a dedicated precision crosscutting station alongside other machinery.

Applications
solid wood construction elements
medium workshopTimber construction and architectural joinery workshops use the Nova Si 40 to process solid wood posts, beams, and framing elements requiring precise crosscuts and angled bevels for joinery preparation. The 400mm blade diameter and adjustable projection handle material up to 138mm thickness at 90°, suitable for processing standard timber dimensions while maintaining the accuracy needed for mortise-and-tenon or dovetail joint preparation.
furniture component production
medium workshopThe Nova Si 40 excels at high-volume ripping and crosscutting of solid wood furniture components such as rails, stiles, and shelving. The 1270mm fence width handles standard board widths efficiently, while the 5-6kW motor delivers consistent cut quality through hardwoods and softwoods. Medium workshops can integrate this as a primary dimensioning station in a production line, supporting batch cutting of chair frames, table bases, and cabinet sides with repeatable precision.
custom millwork angled cuts
medium workshopThe tilting blade mechanism (90°/45° capability) positions this machine as ideal for custom millwork requiring angled components—chamfered trim, beveled panels, and architectural details. The 98mm projection at 45° provides sufficient depth for beveling solid wood up to approximately 50mm thickness, enabling fabrication of premium door frames, crown molding substrates, and decorative wall paneling without secondary beveling operations.
cabinet door panel processing
medium workshopCabinet manufacturers rely on the Nova Si 40 to dimension solid wood door panels and internal components with the precision required for frame-and-panel construction. The 2600mm or 3200mm stroke accommodates standard panel lengths; the 1270mm fence width processes multiple door stiles in a single pass. The machine's stable, repeatable cuts ensure panels fit joinery without excessive hand-finishing, critical for efficient cabinet assembly lines.
