Superstar CX-1625 Side Drilling Machine for Panel Furniture

Superstar CX-1625 Infrared Laser Side Hole Drilling Machine

Product Overview

The Superstar CX-1625 (manufactured by Jinan Jinshengxing Machinery Manufacture Co., Ltd.) is a specialized horizontal boring solution that removes the bottleneck in custom furniture manufacturing.

While your nesting machine cuts the panel faces, the CX-1625 handles the horizontal edge drilling. It features a "Scan-and-Drill" workflow: simply scan the barcode from your nesting software, and the machine knows exactly where to drill side holes. Alternatively, in "Infrared Mode," the machine uses laser sensors to detect vertical holes drilled by the nester and automatically drills the corresponding horizontal hole on the side, ensuring perfect alignment for 3-in-1 connectors.

Core Advantages

• Dual-Mode Operation: Supports both Barcode Scanning (for production management software like Cabinet Vision/Haixun) and Infrared Laser Sensing (a "foolproof" mode that aligns side holes based on existing vertical holes).

• Three-Zone Working Table: The 2600mm long table is divided into three independent work zones. This allows the operator to load/unload a panel in one zone while the machine is drilling in another, maximizing throughput.

• Heavy-Duty Pressing Foot: A pneumatic cylinder with a specialized rubber pressing foot clamps the panel firmly near the drilling point, preventing vibration and ensuring the hole is perfectly straight and centered.

• Zero Programming Required: In infrared mode, the operator does not need to know G-code or CAD. Just place the board against the fence, and the laser sensor triggers the drilling cycle automatically.

Detailed Configuration & Component Analysis

• Infrared Laser Sensor (Omron):

We use high-sensitivity Omron sensors from Japan. These sensors can detect hole positions on various board colors (including dark walnut or black melamine) where cheaper optical sensors often fail.

• Helical Rack & Pinion:

Compared to straight racks, our helical gear system offers smoother transmission at high speeds (up to 40m/min rapid travel). This reduces mechanical noise and wear, ensuring the drilling depth remains consistent over years of use.

• HQD Air-Cooled Spindle:

The 3.5KW spindle provides sufficient torque for drilling large diameter cam-lock holes (15mm) in a single plunge without stalling, unlike smaller 2.2KW motors found on hobby machines.

Applicable Industries & Materials

• Panel Furniture: Essential for assembling kitchen cabinets, wardrobes, office desks, and shoe racks using Minifix (cam & dowel) joinery.

• Custom Doors: Drilling lock holes and hinge pockets on composite doors.

• Interior Decoration: Pre-drilling mounting holes for wall panels and partitions.

• Compatible Materials: Particle Board (MFC), MDF, Plywood, and Solid Wood.

Why Choose Superstar CNC?

• Production Line Integration: This machine is designed to sit next to your Superstar Nesting Router. The "Nesting + Side Drill" combination is the most cost-effective way to achieve full automation for small-to-medium factories.

• Humanized Design: The control interface is simple. New employees can be trained to operate it efficiently in less than 30 minutes.

• Robust Build: The frame is welded from thick-walled steel tubes, preventing deformation even when handling heavy 4x8 ft sheets all day.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can it drill holes for wooden dowels and Minifix cams?

A: Yes, it can drill holes of various diameters (e.g., 8mm, 10mm, 15mm) by changing the drill bit. For different hole sizes on the same board, you may need to run the batch twice or use a machine with a multi-drill head (optional).

Q: Does it work with my design software?

A: Yes, if your software (Cabinet Vision, Polyboard, etc.) can print a barcode label with the hole information, the supplied scanner can read it.

Q: Is the depth of the hole adjustable?

A: Yes, the drilling depth is easily set via the touch screen. You can save presets for different hardware types (e.g., "Cam Lock 15mm" or "Dowel 30mm").

Q: What is the maintenance required?

A: Very low. Primarily keeping the sensors clean of dust and lubricating the guide rails weekly. The air-cooled spindle requires no water pump maintenance.
