Double-Head Hinge Drilling Machine for Wooden Furniture CNC

The double-head furniture hinge drilling machine is the workshop equipment for simultaneously drilling the two hinge cups on furniture panels — cabinets, wardrobes, interior doors and any furniture piece with cup hinges. The two independent drilling heads, each with a 1,5 kW motor at 2.880 rpm, simultaneously execute both hinge holes on the panel in a single pedal cycle, doubling productivity compared with a single-head drilling machine and eliminating positioning errors between the two cups.

The furniture hinge drilling machine has position adjustment along the longitudinal and horizontal directions, a positioning stop with a precise scale, pedal control with both hands free, an integrated dust collection bag and compatibility with a wide range of bits for different hinge sizes. The dual 380V/220V power supply makes it compatible with any furniture workshop in Romania. Technical specifications — furniture hinge drilling machine

• Double head — both hinge cups drilled simultaneously in a single cycle — the furniture hinge drilling machine has two independent heads that simultaneously execute the two holes required for a cup hinge. A single pedal cycle produces a complete pair of cups at the exact distance programmed via the stop. Compared with a single-head machine that requires two cycles and manual repositioning, the equipment halves the drilling time per panel and eliminates distance errors between cups.

• 2 × 1,5 kW at 2.880 rpm — fast and clean drilling in chipboard, MDF and solid wood — each head of the furniture hinge drilling machine has an independent 1,5 kW motor at 2.880 rpm, sufficient for clean and fast drilling in melamine-faced chipboard, MDF, moisture-resistant chipboard and solid wood without tearing the fibres or overheating the bit. The two independent motors ensure that the load on each head is optimal regardless of the material being processed.

• Diameter ≤35 mm — covers all standard hinge types — the furniture hinge drilling machine drills up to 35 mm diameter, covering the standard 26 mm hinge used on economy furniture, the 35 mm European standard hinge on medium and premium quality furniture and the 40 mm hinge for heavy doors and 25 mm thick panels. The maximum depth of 50 mm ensures complete drilling for all types of cup hinges available on the market.

• Positioning stop with precise scale — perfect repeatability across the entire series — the furniture hinge drilling machine has an adjustable positioning stop with a graduated scale that sets the distance from the panel edge to the centre of the hinge cup. Once set for an order, the stop maintains the same position on all panels in the series without repetitive measurements — guaranteeing that the hinges are mounted at the same height on all furniture carcasses in an order, regardless of the number of pieces.

• Longitudinal and horizontal adjustment — rapid adaptation to any panel format — the furniture hinge drilling machine allows adjustment of the drilling head position both along the length of the panel (the distance between the two hinge cups) and across its width (the distance from the edge). This bilateral adjustment covers all combinations of panel dimensions and hinges in furniture production, from narrow 40 cm doors to wide 70 cm doors and panels with thicknesses from 16 to 25 mm.

• Pedal control — both hands free to position and secure the panel — the furniture hinge drilling machine is controlled by a foot pedal, leaving both of the operator's hands free to position and secure the panel on the work table. This ergonomic configuration reduces effort over a long shift and increases working speed compared with machines with manual triggering, where one hand holds the panel and the other triggers the cycle.

• Integrated dust collection bag — clean workshop, reduced maintenance — the furniture hinge drilling machine has an integrated dust collection bag that retains the sawdust generated during drilling directly at the source. Collection at the source reduces air pollution in the workshop, extends the life of the bearings and guides of the furniture hinge drilling machine and eliminates the need for frequent cleaning of the panel surfaces before the next operation.

• 60-month UZINEX warranty — spare parts in stock in Iași, national technical support in 24–48 hours, transport and commissioning included.

Applications — furniture hinge drilling machine

Kitchen carcass production is the primary application of the furniture hinge drilling machine. A standard kitchen carcass with a door has 2–4 hinges, each with two 35 mm cups. The double-head furniture hinge drilling machine drills one pair of cups per cycle — a carcass with two hinges requires two pedal cycles, a carcass with four hinges requires four cycles. At a production rate of 50–100 carcasses per day, the productivity difference compared with manual drilling or a single-head machine amounts to several hours of work per shift.

Manufacturers of bedroom cabinets, wardrobes and storage systems use the furniture hinge drilling machine for series drilling on panels of varied dimensions. The quick adjustment of the positioning stop allows switching from one door size to another in fractions of a second, without laborious recalibration — a feature critical for workshops producing made-to-order furniture with variable dimensions from one client to another.

Furniture service and repair workshops use the furniture hinge drilling machine to replace damaged hinges on furniture delivered to clients. The relative portability and single-phase 220V power supply allow the furniture hinge drilling machine to be used outside the workshop as well, directly at the end client, for interventions on installed furniture that require re-drilling or the addition of hinges. The furniture hinge drilling machine in the furniture production flow

In the furniture production line, the furniture hinge drilling machine comes into play after the sizing and edge banding of the panels, before assembly. The sized and edge-banded panels arrive at the furniture hinge drilling machine, the operator positions them against the stop, presses the pedal and the two hinge cups are drilled simultaneously. The panel then moves on to dowel drilling and to assembly.

Integrating the furniture hinge drilling machine into the flow eliminates manual drilling with templates — a common method in small workshops that generates positioning errors between pieces of the same carcass. With the furniture hinge drilling machine, all the hinges in an order are at the same position on every panel, guaranteeing that the doors are mounted perfectly aligned at delivery, with no adjustments on site. Frequently asked questions about the furniture hinge drilling machine

Does the furniture hinge drilling machine work with 26mm hinges as well, or only 35mm ones?

The furniture hinge drilling machine drills up to 35 mm diameter, which means it is compatible with all standard cup hinge sizes: 26 mm for economy furniture, 35 mm European standard and other sizes up to the 35 mm limit. Changing the bit for another hinge size is done quickly, without special tools. Is the distance between the two drilling heads fixed or adjustable?

The furniture hinge drilling machine allows adjustment of the distance between the two heads along the longitudinal direction, covering the standard distances between the top and bottom hinges of furniture doors. The integrated precise scale allows quick and reproducible adjustment of the distance for each type of door in production. Which bits are compatible with the furniture hinge drilling machine?

The furniture hinge drilling machine is compatible with a wide variety of furniture bits — Forstner bits, centre bits and special bits for cup hinges, in diameters from under 26 mm up to 35 mm. At the initial training, UZINEX recommends the optimal bits for the types of materials processed in your workshop. Is the furniture hinge drilling machine eligible for European funding?

Yes. UZINEX is a member of the Enterprise Europe Network and delivers equipment for projects with EU funds for modernising furniture production. The furniture hinge drilling machine can be added directly to SEAP/SICAP. Leasing and credit options available on the UZINEX credit and leasing page. Does the dust collection bag replace an extraction system?

The integrated bag of the furniture hinge drilling machine collects the fine sawdust generated during drilling and significantly reduces the dispersion of dust in the workshop. For workshops with high production volumes or strict air-quality requirements, UZINEX recommends also connecting the furniture hinge drilling machine to a centralised extraction system — the integrated bag remains useful as a backup and for low-volume production.
