What Is the CNC 6-sided Drilling Machine?
The CNC six-sided drilling machine is one piece of numerically controlled drilling equipment that integrates multiple drill head units. It can complete drilling, routing, and slotting operations on multiple surfaces of panel materials in one setup. You can use it for the production of panel furniture such as cabinets, wardrobes, office furniture, and custom furniture.
Compared with traditional drilling methods, after the sheet material is fed into our CNC six-sided drilling machine, you do not need manual flipping. Your production line adopting our six-sided drill technology can increase the drilling efficiency by more than 40% and reduce the labor cost by 30%.
CNC 6-sided Drilling Machine Types
The ATC system handles automatic tool changes, while the right-angle head and saw blade unit support side milling and laminar mortise groove processing.
Two drilling units and four milling heads expand the machine’s processing range for drilling, milling, grooving, and connector operations.
Four drilling heads provide multiple drilling positions for panel processing, with ATC technology handling automatic tool changes during production.
Four milling heads work with the single drill unit to handle side milling, grooving, and two-in-one connector processing.
The double-station design allows two work areas to operate independently, supporting continuous panel drilling without waiting for one station to finish.
Dual drilling units work from different positions on the panel, increasing drilling efficiency by 30% and reducing manual processing requirements.
Wireless code scanning identifies each panel before machining, while automatic positioning coordinates six-sided drilling with front and rear grooving.
The return table brings processed panels back to the loading position, allowing one operator to manage panel loading and unloading.
The double drill units work with ATC tooling to combine drilling, grooving, milling, and laminar processing in one machining cycle.
The compact ET5 combines one drill unit with automatic sorting, positioning, and wireless code scanning, eliminating manual panel turning.

Yes. Our 6-sided CNC drilling machine is fully compatible with popular international furniture design and nesting software, such as Cabinet Vision, AlphaCAM, IMOS, Mozaik, and WoodCAD/CAM. It directly accepts standard ISO G-code and DXF/XML files exported from these platforms.
Our equipment features an intelligent barcode scanning system. Workers simply use a handheld scanner to read the barcode printed on the panel’s edge label. The controller instantly matches and loads the corresponding drilling and grooving program, eliminating manual file selection errors.
Yes. Our machines equipped with a right-angle head, C-axis spindle, and ATC system can process Lamello slots, Clamex connectors, invisible connectors, and other concealed fastening solutions. These features expand the machine’s capabilities beyond standard drilling and make it suitable for your advanced furniture assembly requirements and modern design trends.
A 6-sided drilling machine is primarily designed for drilling, grooving, and routing on all six sides of a panel in a single setup. A CNC nesting machine is mainly used for cutting and shaping panels from raw boards. In a modern furniture factory, the nesting machine performs panel cutting, while the 6-sided drilling machine completes precision drilling and machining operations. You can use these two machines together to create a highly automated production workflow.
No. With the intuitive touch-screen interface (powered by SYNTEC) and the barcode scanning workflow, any operator does not need to know complex CAD/CAM programming. Most workers can master basic operation within a single day of training.
ElephMax provides comprehensive multi-language digital user manuals and step-by-step HD video tutorials for installation, wiring, and daily maintenance. For on-site needs, we can dispatch experienced mechanical and software engineers to your factory for professional commissioning and staff training.
Based on factors such as your production scale, processing complexity, and budget. For small and medium-sized factories, the ET5 compact model or the ET6 single-drill package is suitable for you; for batch production, we recommend you choose a double-drill package; for complex processing requirements, the ATC automatic tool changer model is better. Please feel free to contact us for professional selection advice.
You need to clean the workbench and the dust collection port daily and regularly inspect the pneumatic system and its lubrication status. Our equipment is equipped with an automatic lubrication system to reduce the amount of manual maintenance work. For detailed maintenance procedures, please refer to our user manual that comes with the equipment.
The machine is carefully wrapped with moisture-proof plastic film, cushioned with protective foam, and securely fastened inside a heavy-duty, fumigation-free wooden export crate to withstand long-distance ocean transit and port handling.
The exact delivery date depends on your model and order quantity. Generally, after you sign the contract, it will take 30 to 45 working days. For more details, please contact our sales representative.
