SCM Startech 27
SCM Startech 27 Line Boring Machine
A semi-automatic 27-spindle boring machine for cabinet, closet, furniture, casework, and panel shops that need accurate 32 mm drilling, horizontal boring, hinge drilling flexibility, and repeatable panel setup.
Professional 32 mm Line Boring Without Full CNC Workflow
The SCM Startech 27 gives cabinet shops, closet producers, furniture manufacturers, millwork shops, and custom casework operations a practical way to improve drilling repeatability without stepping into a full CNC drilling centre. It is built for line boring, horizontal drilling, angled drilling, hinge drilling with optional units, and repeat panel-drilling operations.
Key Advantages
The Startech 27 supports accurate 32 mm drilling, fast setup changes, repeatable depth control, horizontal boring, and practical production drilling in a compact semi-automatic machine.
27-Spindle Drilling Head
Broad drilling coverage for line boring, cabinet construction holes, system-hole patterns, shelf pins, and panel drilling.
32 mm Spindle Spacing
Built for European-style cabinet construction, closet systems, modular furniture, and repeatable 32 mm drilling logic.
Pneumatic Head Rotation
0° / 45° / 90° pneumatic head positioning supports vertical, angled, and horizontal boring operations.
Fast Setup Features
Quick-release spindle fittings, micrometric guide travel, decimal scale setup, and a 5-position depth turret support repeatable production setup.
Applications
Cabinet Line Boring
Handles cabinet sides, shelves, partitions, decks, tops, bottoms, adjustable shelf holes, system drilling, and construction holes.
Closet & Storage Production
Supports closet verticals, partitions, shelving, storage systems, adjustable shelving layouts, and repeated drilling patterns.
Furniture Components

Machine Information
The SCM Startech 27 is a semi-automatic single-head multi-boring machine designed for accurate panel drilling in cabinet, furniture, closet, millwork, and casework production. It is positioned for shops that need better repeatability than manual drilling jigs, drill presses, or handheld boring methods, but do not need a full CNC drilling centre.
The machine is built around a 27-spindle boring head with 32 mm centre spacing, making it a strong fit for standard cabinet-system drilling, shelf-pin rows, construction holes, hardware drilling, hinge preparation, and repeated line-boring work. For shops using 32 mm construction logic, the Startech 27 provides a controlled and repeatable platform for day-to-day panel drilling.
SCM lists the Startech 27 with a 1096 × 407 mm worktable, 900 mm worktable height, 832 mm maximum drilling inter-axis, 70 mm maximum drilling head stroke, 60 mm maximum horizontal drilling height, 1025 mm maximum panel width under the beam structure, panel thickness capacity from 10 to 85 mm, and maximum tool diameter of 40 mm.
Operator setup features include quick-release spindle fittings, a nonius decimal scale, micrometric guide travel, 5-position revolving depth turret, and pneumatic head rotation at 0° / 45° / 90°. Optional devices can include servo-assisted down-stroke speed adjustment, a 45° horizontal drilling guide, a narrow-workpiece device, and hinge units depending on the final quoted configuration.
