oikos x4
CNC Machining Centers — SCM Group
6-axis CNC machining centre designed for rapid and precise processing of camber beams and straight beams with maximum sections up to 1250x300 mm. Ideal for timber construction applications requiring high precision and flexibility.
The oikos x4 is a 6-axis CNC machining centre purpose-built for high-precision processing of structural timber elements in modern timber construction workflows. It delivers dual-material capability, handling both camber beams (curved members up to 675×300 mm) and straight beams (up to 1,250×300 mm cross-section) on a single platform, eliminating the need for separate equipment and reducing production bottlenecks in mid-to-large scale operations.
The machine's technical architecture supports three configurable working lengths (13,500, 16,000, or 19,000 mm) to match facility constraints and project requirements, with automatic loading capacity up to 2,500 kg for continuous workflow efficiency. The 6-axis configuration enables complex three-dimensional cuts, angled joints, and compound geometries essential for glulam connections, CLT fabrication, and engineered timber components. A 500 mm saw blade paired with selectable routing spindle power (13 or 25 kW S1 rated) provides flexibility for both profile routing and structural cutting operations across the full workpiece spectrum.
The oikos x4 is engineered for timber construction enterprises, prefabrication facilities, and mid-to-large carpentry operations processing 50–1,500+ components per week. It occupies the intersection of precision and throughput—handling the dimensional accuracy and edge quality required for CLT panels, roof trusses, and structural joints while maintaining production speeds compatible with semi-automated supply chains. With an 18-position tool changer, the machine minimizes setup transitions and reduces non-cutting time in high-mix, moderate-volume production environments.

Applications
roof truss and frame production
industrial workshopTruss manufacturers and roof frame fabricators use the oikos x4 to process both straight web members and camber-loaded top chords (up to 63–90 mm arrow correction) with compound joint angles and lateral hole drilling. The machine's capacity for 1,250 mm wide straight sections and 675 mm camber beams covers full-depth structural members, while automated loading reduces labor for high-volume seasonal production runs.
timber construction prefabrication
industrial workshopLarge-scale CLT and glulam prefabrication plants use the oikos x4 to process structural beams up to 19,000 mm length and 1,250×300 mm section with tight dimensional tolerances required for assembly. The dual-axis capability accommodates both camber (curved) roof beams and straight wall elements, while 6-axis contouring enables complex joint geometries—notches, bearing surfaces, connection holes—in single-setup operations, reducing manual finishing and assembly time.
custom structural millwork
medium workshopMedium-sized architectural millwork and bespoke timber construction shops deploy the oikos x4 for low-to-medium volume custom elements—curved beams, angled trusses, and decorative structural components. The 6-axis flexibility and configurable length options (13.5–19 m) accommodate project-specific geometries without dedicated single-purpose machinery, while the 18-position tool changer handles mixed routing, sawing, and drilling in a single pass.
engineered timber component manufacturing
industrial workshopManufacturers of engineered joinery components (I-joists, LVL headers, structural connectors) benefit from the oikos x4's precise routing capability (13–25 kW spindle) and 18-tool capacity for cutting profiles, dados, and pocket holes across high-volume batch runs. The 2,500 kg automatic loading system supports unattended processing of stacked components, maximizing utilization for 8–16 hour production cycles in 50+ person facilities.
