How the line works
The process begins with the automatic feeding of components into the line. Each workpiece is supplied with a QR code or barcode containing information about dimensions, hole positions, grooves, and all required machining operations.
The HD scanner automatically reads the code, and the system recognizes all processing data related to the specific component. The workpiece is then positioned and fed into the six-sided CNC drilling machine, where all required operations are automatically performed.
The machine can process holes on the top, bottom, and side faces, as well as grooves, milling operations, and other machining tasks depending on the configuration and project requirements. Six-sided drilling significantly reduces the need for manual handling and rotation of components, resulting in faster processing and fewer errors.
After machining is completed, the components automatically continue through the conveyor system to the next stage — sorting, packaging, assembly, or connection to another production line.
Main advantages
• Automatic QR code / barcode reading;
• Automatic recognition of machining information;

• No manual rotation or handling of components;
• The entire line can operate with only two operators, depending on configuration;
• Higher precision and fewer errors;
• Better production organization;
• Stable component flow through the conveyor system;
• Suitable for custom-made furniture production;
• High production capacity per shift;
• Possibility of integration with other production processes.
Line configurations
The intelligent CNC drilling line is configured according to the required capacity, production type, and level of automation. The system can be built with a single six-sided CNC drilling machine, a combination of single-station and double-station machines, multiple double-station machines, ATC six-sided drilling machines, or a line with three, four, or more CNC drilling machines for higher capacity.
In simpler configurations, the line enables automatic reading, positioning, and machining with minimal manual intervention. In advanced configurations, multiple machines operate in synchronization, with automatic transportation of components and a continuous production flow.
The configuration selection depends on the number of components to be processed daily, the type of holes and grooves required, the need for top, bottom, and side machining, and the customer’s existing production process.
Capacity
Capacity depends on the number of CNC drilling machines, type of machining operations, component dimensions, number of holes, number of grooves, conveyor speed, and overall production organization.
In an advanced configuration with three machines, the line can achieve a capacity of approximately 3,000–3,500 panels within an 8-hour shift. For an accurate capacity calculation, it is necessary to analyze typical components, the number of operations per part, software output, and the required level of automation.
Software control and traceability
The line operates through an automatic component identification system. Each workpiece is identified via a QR code or barcode, and the machine automatically retrieves all required machining information.
This enables production involving multiple orders, custom-made components, and automatic execution of different drilling patterns without manually loading individual programs. Software control improves traceability, reduces the possibility of human error, and enables better organization of the entire production process.
Who is this line for?
The RADEK Intelligent CNC Drilling Line is designed for manufacturers who want to accelerate and automate the drilling and component preparation process.
It is particularly suitable for:
• Kitchen manufacturers;
• Wardrobe manufacturers;
• Cabinet furniture manufacturers;
• Custom furniture producers;
• Serial panel furniture production;
• Companies processing large volumes of components daily;
• Manufacturers aiming to reduce dependence on manual labor;
• Companies seeking higher accuracy and fewer drilling errors;
• Customers looking to integrate CNC nesting, edgebanding, sorting, or automatic packaging systems
Customized solution according to customer requirements
Every CNC drilling line is designed according to the customer's actual production requirements. When preparing a proposal, factors such as component dimensions, hole types, top/bottom/side machining requirements, number of grooves, production capacity per shift, file formats, transportation method, and desired automation level are analyzed.
Depending on production requirements, the line can be configured as a simple solution with a single six-sided CNC drilling machine and automatic code reading, or as an advanced system with multiple CNC drilling machines, conveyor systems, and a fully synchronized production process.
