There is a very old woodworking machinery company. I wonder if you have heard of it? It is Schmalz, a German company founded in 1910.The company has been producing vacuum components and vacuum systems in series since 1984.Schmalz's PTP workbench (Point-to-Point) supports rapid installation and removal of workpieces and switching of fixtures.The PTP workbench is combined with CNC to realize hole, slot and milling processing on five surfaces in one positioning.which brought a leap forward in efficiency and quality to furniture production.

In order to further improve efficiency and reduce labor, Chinese companies abandoned the PTP technology route in 2018.and innovated the P+T model based on the motion model, that is, the Part+Tool motion model. This mode realizes the collaboration of 12 motion axes, and the workpiece and tool are processed synchronously and interactively.It not only solves the problem of simultaneous processing of six sides in one clamping, but also realizes seamless connection with the automated production line.Well,this model sounds awesome, right?

The latest model of QUICK KQ-63E six-sided intelligent drilling and milling center adopts this mode. It can realize the synchronous processing of six sides of holes, grooves and special shapes of panel furniture, intelligent data connection, flexible production adaptation, and unmanned production throughout the process.Currently, six-sided intelligent drilling and milling centers have replaced 98% of PTP CNC machines in panel furniture production.However, PTP CNC machines still play an important role in solid wood processing.
