The HPJ 48 is a Vertical and Horizontal Boring machine and Dowel insertion CNC machining center used for case construction in cabinet and/or furniture manufacturing.

The HPJ performs the following functions:

• Horizontal Boring and Vertical Boring
• Glue Insertion
• Dowel Insertion

New 2020 Features:

• Rear Machine Enclosure is Standard
• 15″ Industrial Swivel Color Touchscreen
• Wider Frame Design (this allows for one extra spindle and one extra dowel inserter without compromising table space.
