CNC Wood-Mizer

Wood-Mizer CNCs are made from the highest quality components combined with industry-leading numerical controllers.

CNC5003 Wood-Mizer - the first product in the range

The CNC5003 is a 3- and 4-axis machining center designed for automated machining of wood, plastic, composites and light alloys in arts and crafts shops as well as medium and large companies producing sophisticated components for the construction of kitchens, furniture, homes and more.

The CNC5003 is based on a console design with a dual drive unit for stability and precision, a 12-position automatic carousel-type tool changer mounted on the console for quick tool changes and a multi-zone vacuum table for safe and flexible material positioning.

The machining center has a powerful electro-spindle assisted by high-resolution digital servo units for accuracy and minimal vibration.

All operations are supervised from a mobile operator panel with the renowned Fanuc controller for advanced functionality and lifetime parts availability. In addition, the operating panel provides an interface for PC and CAM software and a built-in server controller.

The fast and precise moving 3-axis head operates on a multi-zone vacuum table, which allows the processing of flat material up to 3000 x 1500 mm. The table is constructed in six zones with 216 individual vacuum points to provide a wide variety of configurations. The spindle is equipped with a reliable and highly efficient dust extraction system to maintain a clean working environment.

CNC5003 machine specifications:

- Working area - 3080 x 1540 x 200 mm
- Material dimensions: 3000 x 1500 mm
- Speed (x/y/z) - 60 x 30 x 15 m/min
- Motor shaft with tool changer - 11 kW at 24,000 rpm
- Tool changer - rotating carousel with 12 tools
- Vacuum pump - 4 kW (or 5.5 kW)
- Vacuum pump capacity - 126 m³/h at 0.9 bar

The CNC5003 and other future CNC machines in this series complement the Wood-Mizer range of equipment by adding more precision and repeatability to the wood finishing process.
