# Pillar CMJ-HSK: High-Speed HSK Coping Machine for Rail Ends

## Pillar CMJ-HSK: High-Speed Coping Machine with HSK Spindles

The CMJ-HSK is a high-speed coping machine with two independent 11 HP HSK-63F spindles, designed for shops running 10 or more profiles daily. Push-button tooling changes take 30 seconds, cutting downtime significantly compared to standard spindle setups. Cycle time and throughput match the standard CMJ: 6-8 seconds per part, up to 4,000 rails per shift.

### Standout Features and Advantages

- **Quick-Change HSK Spindles:** Two 11 HP HSK-63F spindles with push-button tool changes reduce downtime, making them ideal for shops with 10 or more daily profiles.

- **Chip-Free Excellence:** Dual counter-rotating spindles clear the leading edge and process the full width, ensuring clean, tear-out-free cuts.

- **Blazing-Fast Cycles:** Completes coping or tenoning in 6-8 seconds, capable of processing up to 4000 rails per shift when cutting two parts at once.

- **Accurate Alignment:** Scissor lock clamp applies up to 600 lbs. of force, with precise spindle adjustments for perfect tool alignment.

- **Operator-Friendly PLC:** Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) offers simple controls, making it easy to achieve consistent results with minimal training.

- **Heavy-Duty Build:** 1,350 lb. frame with high-precision square rail guides ensures durability in high-volume production environments.
