Horizontal Bore & Dowel

Description

The model HPJ is a horizontal point to point bore and dowel insertion machining center. It is designed to CNC position the spindle, bore a hole, then CNC position the dowel inserter, inject glue or water (for pre-glued dowels), and insert the dowel into the hole.

In 2020 we redesigned this model with new features like a rear machine enclosure as a standard, swivel touchscreen, wider frame design, manual “pop-up” side fences, and slick new graphics.

HPJ Advantages:

• Elimination of complicated machine setup
• Quick, accurate assembly
• Gain production times on CNC routers and Point to Points by shifting boring and doweling to the HPJ.

HPJ is a customizable line of horizontal point to point machining centers designed for boring, gluing, doweling, and hardware insertion. Custom designs are available, as the HPJ can be outfitted with multiple horizontal and vertical spindles, horizontal dowel inserters, and hardware inserters.

Standard Operation

A part is placed into the work zone referencing the back and side fences. The palm button is pressed, and the clamps secure the part into place. The machining is now ready to begin in the work zone. There are 4 zones on the standard HPJ with manual pop-up side fences. Having these pop-up fences allow you to process parts of unlimited width. Pendulum processing in all four zones is a standard feature. While the one part is being machined, the other zones can be loaded and queued for machining.

The standard HPJ is equipped with a single horizontal drill spindle and a glue/dowel insertion unit that is set up for 8mm diameter dowels.
