Category: Profile Processing & Cutting Centers

This 3 axes controlled CNC processing center can do all operations on PVC profiles such as cutting, marking, opening key holes, copy routing for water slot milling, hinge holes, handle holes etc.
All angles between 30 - 150 degrees are cut with 0.1 degree accuracy servo axis controlled 500 mm diameter saw.
Routing and cutting processes are synchronized to run at the same time
Saves time by simultaneously opening multiple holes on door profiles, such as door handles, slots by the axis control system on its router unit.
With the processed profile, 11 pieces can be loaded on the machine. (Max.length 6.5 m)
New design of loading station allow profiles to be loaded simultaneously. This feature saves time from loading process.
Private HMI software developed by Schtec Software Departmant allows different kinds of window design program data files to be uploaded on machine.
All alarms and machine faults are displayed on HMI along with solutions
15” Touch Screen and high performance industrial PC with Windows 10 Embeded system. This system can operate fanless between 0°C and 55°C.
Industrial PC Based Servo Control System (Beckhoff)
Online diagnostic and troubleshooting via user friendly interface.
File transfer by USB or ethernet network and remote desktop connection by WiFi or Ethernet connection
Central lubrication system reduces the time spent for maintanence
The automatic dust collection system efficiently extracts all PVC dust and quickly removes waste using two separate carriers
Optimisation option can be enabled for each projects seperately therefore machine make optimisation for waste profiles automatically.

Optional Features

Optional screwing station having two screw units allows simultaneous screwing of reinforcement steel and drilling of triple holes for handles via servo controlled axes system. (RS 230)
For operations which can be done on profiles with a height greater than 130 mm and maximum cutting height, please inquire to us.

Product Description

The SCHTEC SMC 320 is a CNC-controlled machining center integrating cutting, drilling, and milling for PVC and aluminum profiles. With 0.1° saw precision and cutting angles from 30° to 150°, it performs synchronized operations like handle and cylinder holes. It supports up to 6.5 meters in profile length and holds 11 profiles, making it a perfect solution for medium-scale production.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to common questions about our Profile Processing & Cutting Centers for PVC Profiles

1. What is the main advantage of a Profile Processing & Cutting Center?

A Profile Processing & Cutting Center is a fully automated CNC machine that combines multiple operations into a single, continuous workflow. Instead of moving profiles between separate machines for cutting, milling, drilling, and screwing, these centers perform all processes in one integrated station. This drastically reduces production time, minimizes labor dependency, eliminates manual errors, and optimizes the factory floor space.

2. What specific operations can these centers perform on PVC profiles?

Schtec's CNC centers are highly versatile. They can perform all necessary operations on PVC profiles, including: cutting at any angle (e.g., between 30-150 degrees), milling water slots, drilling for handles and hinges, marking parts, and even automatic reinforcement screwing on advanced models. The CSML 240 and SMC 360 can be equipped with optional screwing units to create a complete, end-to-end processing solution.

3. How do Schtec machining centers achieve such high speed and precision?

Our centers use a high-performance industrial PC-based control system (from our partner Beckhoff) that manages high-torque servo motors on all axes. This allows for positioning accuracy of up to 0.1 mm. The axes move on hardened steel rack-pinion and ball screw systems with central lubrication, ensuring smooth, repeatable, and accurate movement at high speeds for many years.

4. What is the benefit of a multi-profile infeed magazine?

The infeed magazine, or loading station, allows operators to load multiple raw PVC profiles (often 8 to 11 bars) at once. The machine then automatically feeds, processes, and cuts each profile according to the pre-loaded job list. This feature dramatically reduces idle time, minimizes operator dependency, and enables continuous, "lights-out" manufacturing, which is a massive boost to overall productivity. The SMC 320 and SMC 360 feature an elevator system to further reduce loading times.

5. How do these CNC centers integrate with our existing software?

To ensure seamless integration into a modern digital factory, our machining centers are designed to be fully compatible with all major window design programs. Job files can be transferred to the machine via Ethernet (network connection), Wi-Fi, or USB. The system can also be equipped with a barcode reader to instantly load the correct job for a specific profile, eliminating manual entry errors and ensuring maximum data accuracy from the office to the factory floor.
