Windorflex 1

The Windorflex 1 is a dedicated machining cell engineered by SCM for high-volume windows and doors manufacturing, integrating routing, drilling, and edgebanding operations within a single production system. This integration eliminates intermediate material handling and enables manufacturers to process linear elements—frames, sashes, and door components—without operator intervention between operations.

The machine's core strength lies in its multi-axis precision and production flexibility. Three independent work-piece configurations accommodate lengths from 220 mm to 6000 mm, with maximum width capacity of 260 mm and thickness up to 160 mm, making it compatible with standard timber stock and engineered wood profiles used in fenestration. The X-Y-Z axes deliver cutting speeds of 100, 80, and 50 m/min respectively, enabling aggressive material removal while maintaining edge quality critical for weatherproof assembly. The 20 kW electrospindle motor and 48-position tool changer minimize tool changeover time and support complex multi-operation cycles on single parts.

Windorflex 1 targets medium to industrial-scale window and door manufacturers processing softwood, hardwood, and composite materials in production runs of 50+ units per specification. It is particularly suited for operations requiring consistent routing profiles (muntins, rebates, weatherstripping grooves), precision drilling for hardware assembly, and edge finishing—all common in PVC and aluminum-clad timber window production. The machine's throughput capacity and tool flexibility accommodate seasonal demand fluctuations common in the fenestration industry without requiring secondary outsource operations.

Within its class, the Windorflex 1 competes as a semi-automatic cell positioned between manual multi-spindle machines and fully integrated CNC production lines. Its fixed working envelope and integrated operation set distinguish it from modular component systems, while its tool capacity and axis speeds position it above entry-level single-spindle routers, making it a production-focused solution rather than a general-purpose machining center.
