A focused CNC side-drilling solution for cabinetry, carcass production, flat-pack furniture and repeat panel processing.
The Matrix is designed to make horizontal drilling faster, cleaner and more repeatable, reducing manual marking and measuring while helping workshops maintain consistent hole positions across cabinet, wardrobe, furniture and shopfitting production.
The Matrix is built for workshops that regularly drill panel edges for dowels, connectors, fittings and furniture hardware and want a more controlled alternative to manual marking and drilling.
Its compact format, servo-driven positioning and dedicated side-drilling setup make it particularly useful for kitchens, wardrobes, carcasses, modular furniture and shopfitting where repeated hole positions need to remain consistent from panel to panel.
Automated positioning helps reduce the variation that can come from repeated manual measuring and drilling across production runs.
The Matrix is particularly suited to side holes for dowels, fittings and connectors used throughout cabinetry and panel-based manufacturing.
A focused machine footprint with controller, touch screen, installation and training supplied as part of the wider Opus package.
The Matrix combines accurate side drilling, straightforward operation and a robust production-focused platform for workshops handling repeat panel work.
For businesses producing cabinets, wardrobes, office furniture and modular assemblies, side drilling can become a slow manual process. The Matrix is designed to make that stage faster, more consistent and easier to control.
Designed for fast, accurate horizontal drilling for dowel holes, fittings and repeat hardware positions.
