FORMAT4 c-express 920 classicThe c-express 920 classic is a compact CNC drilling and milling centre designed for smaller workshops, offering efficient repeat drilling and simple milling with a favourable price/performance ratio. Repeat programs can be loaded quickly to enable CNC cabinet and panel processing in limited spaces.
Highlights:- Compact CNC processing footprint: only 3.4 m²
- High-precision DH17 drilling head with 17 spindles for maximum flexibility
- Horizontal workpiece processing ensures a constant zero point
- Simple programming without manual compensation for panel thickness
- Grooving saw unit standard for back panels and connection processing
- Laser and encoder measuring technology for highest measuring precision
The CNC drilling and routing headThe c-express 920 classic is equipped as standard with a DH17 8H 1S drilling head.
- 9 vertical spindles
- 8 horizontal spindles
- 1 X-axis slot cutter
Shaper spindleOptional milling (shaper) aggregate with ER32 chuck; tooling clamped with ER32 and changed manually. Suitable for routing cutouts, pockets, grooves and rebates.
Shaping / Milling unitThe milling unit enables 3-sided reference cuts and internal milling operations; the workpiece must be positioned at right angles to the machine.
Workpiece transportHorizontal transport system ensures smooth feed and accurate positioning of workpieces up to 30 kg. Side fence adjustable up to 920 mm; support and guidance from both sides deliver high precision.
Measuring technologyLaser and encoder measuring system guarantee precise length measurement — essential for cabinet connections and avoiding panel overhangs.
Working areasWorking area min.X = 280 mm
Y = 180–70 mm
Z = 10 mm
Working area max.X = 3000 mm
Y = 920 mm
Z = 50 mm
Workpiece widths and narrow workpiecesOptional narrow-piece attachment enables precise processing of workpieces 70–180 mm wide.
Roller pressure apparatusPressure device ensures exact processing depth for very wide or thin workpieces.
Pressure setting of the clampsClamps adjustable up to 100 kg for optimal results on sensitive surfaces.
Simple programming and operationGraphical user interface developed for woodworking machines. "Woodflash" programming software enables quick programming. 19" LCD colour monitor displays processes clearly. Optional connection to cabinet programming software "Flash 3D" for streamlined order processing.
Freely positionable hand terminalHand terminal can be positioned as required to simplify operation and remain accessible.
Unload the workpiece from the rearMachine can be programmed to feed the workpiece to the rear after processing for integration into production lines; unloading direction selectable by switch.
Additional working tableOptional infeed and outfeed tables available.
