Pillar Machine | HPM – Mortise and Pilot Drilling Machine

The HPM machine has CNC controlled spindles for mortising and drilling. This machine is equipped with multiple heads on individual carriages, which allows for a wider range of machining on a single part without re-positioning or changing the tooling. The HPM machine is ideally suited for machining face frames, style & rail components, slot mortising and routing. With the two zone independent programming you can simultaneously run two different jobs at the same time.

The HPM performs the following functions:

• Mortising
• Pilot Drilling

Standard Features:

• 4 independent carriages with X and Z axis CNC control (8 axis each)
• 15″ industrial color touchscreen for creating and selecting programs
• 96” length material capacity in 1 zone mode and 48” capacity in 2 zone mode
• 1″ material thickness maximum
• 1-1/2″ to 3″ material width
• 3 HP high frequency 24,000 RPM direct drive routing spindle for pilot drilling (4 each, 1 per carriage)
• 6 HP high frequency 18,000 RPM direct drive routing spindle for mortising (4 each, 1 per carriage)
