Pillar MMTX: 6-Axis CNC Miter Machine for Unmatched Cabinet Door Production
The MMTX is a 6-axis CNC miter machine with dual carriages, producing 400-500 mitered mortise-and-tenon doors per 8-hour shift with one operator. Separate 7.5 HP tenon, 7.5 HP miter, and 3 HP mortise spindles handle each operation independently. The machine processes MDF, paper-wrapped, and vinyl-wrapped profiles without inlays, profiling, or sanding. Winner of the 2004 IWF Challengers Award.
