A compact semi-automatic multiple-boring machine for accurate 32 mm cabinet drilling, shelf-pin lines, dowel holes, hinge positions, and horizontal, vertical, or 45° boring setups.
Accurate 32 mm boring without moving every drilling operation to CNC.
SCM MiniMax AD21 is a single-head multiple boring machine with 21 spindles, designed for cabinet shops, closet manufacturers, furniture makers, and professional woodworking operations requiring repeat hole patterns.
The 21-spindle layout uses 32 mm centre-to-centre spacing for system holes, shelf-pin lines, dowel boring, hinge positions, and related cabinet-component drilling. The head can be configured for horizontal, vertical, and 45° boring work.
A single-piece aluminum drilling head, two rectified cylindrical guides, and a five-position mechanical boring-depth revolver support stable operation and repeat setup. Final configuration should confirm bits, chucks, bushings, fences, angle requirements, compressed air, extraction, installation, training, warranty, and service.

Compact Multi-Boring Applications
Configure the AD21 around the shop’s hole patterns, panel sizes, drilling orientation, bits, chucks, fences, and production workflow.
Mode 01
32 mm System Boring
The 21-spindle head is arranged on 32 mm centres for repeat cabinet and furniture system-hole patterns.
Mode 02
Shelf-Pin Lines
Produce repeat adjustable-shelf patterns for cabinet sides, closet partitions, wardrobes, and storage components.
Mode 03
Dowel Boring
Support repeated dowel-hole positions for cabinet construction, furniture components, and frame assembly.
Mode 04
Hinge & Component Boring
Machine repeat hinge positions and related component holes within the verified tool and panel-capacity range.
Mode 05
Horizontal, Vertical & 45° Setup
Orient the boring head for the drilling direction required by cabinet, closet, furniture, or custom joinery work.
Production Advantages
Stable Drilling, Repeat Depth Control & Compact Workflow
The AD21 creates a defined professional boring station for shops that need more repeatability than manual jigs without the footprint and complexity of a CNC drilling centre.
Stable Drilling-Head Construction
The single-piece aluminum head and two rectified cylindrical guides support stability and consistent boring movement.
Five-Position Depth Revolver
The mechanical depth revolver helps operators return quickly to commonly used boring depths.
Dedicated Compact Station
The machine gives repetitive boring work a fixed production location beside panel sizing, edging, dowel assembly, or cabinet assembly.
Equipment Range
Lineup Positioning
Manual Drilling
Drill Presses, Portable Jigs & Templates
Suitable for very low-volume work where manual layout, repeated setup, and operator-dependent positioning remain acceptable.
Dedicated Boring Station
Single-Operation Fixtures & Benches
Creates a defined boring area but may still rely on separate templates, repeated fence setting, and individual hole operations.
SCM MiniMax AD21
21-Spindle Professional Boring
Adds 32 mm spindle spacing, multi-angle setup, mechanical depth selection, stable head guidance, and repeat multi-hole boring.
Dowel construction, hinge boring, repeated furniture-component drilling, and short-run custom patterns.
Compact Professional Boring Station
Replace repeated manual hole layout with a stable 21-spindle production process.
The MiniMax AD21 brings 32 mm system drilling, shelf-pin boring, dowel holes, hinge positions, and multi-angle setup into one compact machine.
Its 21-spindle head, stable guided construction, and mechanical depth revolver create a practical bridge between portable drilling jigs and a full CNC drilling centre.
Final configuration should confirm workpiece dimensions, hole patterns, boring angle, tooling, chucks, bushings, fences, compressed air, extraction, material flow, installation, startup, training, warranty, and service.
