A compact CNC drilling centre for vertical and horizontal boring,
grooving, X-direction sawing, and optional routing across cabinet,
closet, furniture, prototype, and custom panel production.
Compact CNC drilling accuracy for shops moving beyond manual boring and template-based setup.
The SCM Startech CN Plus brings CNC-controlled vertical drilling,
horizontal drilling, grooving, and X-direction sawing into a compact
production footprint of approximately 5 m².
It processes panels from 200 × 80 × 10 mm up to 3050 × 900 × 60 mm,
with automatic side alignment and maximum X, Y, and Z axis speeds of
40, 40, and 10 m/min.
A 19-inch PC with Maestro CNC supports shop-floor programming and control.
A 5.5 kW, 18,000 rpm routing electrospindle is available for configurations
requiring localized routing, pocketing, profiling, and light shaping.

Capability Matrix
One compact CNC station. Five panel-machining functions.
The Startech CN Plus combines drilling, grooving, sawing, alignment, and available routing in a controlled panel workflow.
Mode 01
Vertical Drilling
Eight independent vertical spindles, arranged 5X + 3Y, support common construction and system-hole patterns.
Mode 02
Horizontal Drilling
Six horizontal spindles, arranged 2 + 2X + 2Y, support edge boring and construction machining.
Mode 03
Grooving
Creates grooves for cabinet backs, dividers, joinery details, and repeat panel construction features.
Mode 04
X-Direction Sawing
A 125 × 6 mm blade supports X-direction cuts and machining details within the programmed work cycle.
Mode 05
Available Routing
An available 5.5 kW electrospindle adds localized routing, pockets, profiles, and light shaping at up to 18,000 rpm.
Production Advantages
Designed around repeatability, automatic alignment, and accessible CNC control.
The CN Plus creates a structured upgrade path from manual boring equipment into compact CNC panel machining.
Compact Production Footprint
Approximately 5 m² of floor space makes CNC drilling practical for smaller shops and secondary production areas.
Automatic Side Alignment
Automatic panel alignment supports repeatable positioning and reduces dependence on manual template setup.
Maestro CNC Control
A 19-inch PC with integrated Maestro CNC provides a dedicated interface for programming and machine operation.

Production Environments
Where the Startech CN Plus Fits
A compact CNC station for repeatable panel drilling, grooves, saw cuts, and available routing in tailored production environments.
Small and Mid-Sized Shops
Fits manufacturers that need CNC drilling accuracy without dedicating space to a larger machining centre.
Cabinet, Closet and Furniture Production
Supports shelf-pin patterns, construction holes, hinge drilling, grooves, modular parts, and mixed-size components.
Prototype and Offline Production
Provides larger plants with a separate station for prototypes, custom products, specialty panels, and tailored batches.
Compact CNC · Repeatable Panel Machining
A focused CNC station that brings control and consistency to everyday drilling work.
The Startech CN Plus packages CNC drilling, grooving, X-direction sawing,
automatic side alignment, and Maestro control into a compact machine
designed for real production-floor constraints.
Its enclosed layout and dedicated operator station create a clean relationship
between panel loading, programming, machining, and part removal without the
footprint of a larger nesting system.
For cabinet, closet, furniture, custom, and prototype work, it provides a
professional path toward repeatable hole patterns, cleaner setup, and broader
panel-machining capability.
