Description:
SCM Group introduces The Topset Master 12" X 7 7/8" six spindle through-feed moulder. Its large capacity is targeted to the Furniture, Architectural Millwork and Timber Frame Industry. Built on an exceedingly robust machine base, it is engineered for the most demanding moulding applications. |
Machine Features:
- Pressure shoes placed before top horizontal spindles with parallelogram displacement and pneumatic pressure
- FVA device: it enables vertical positioning of steel feed rollers independently of top horizontal spindles position
- 4 powered rollers in worktable including “PHT (nip in-feed) System” for powerful in-feeding of the most difficult materials
- Three feed roller for each hub – One (1) 140 x 25mm and Two (2) 140 x 50mm
- Three flanged feed rollers – 140 x 20mm – for each feed hub opposite left vertical
- Sealed hydro-grip outboard bearings for all horizontal spindles. No high pressure grease gun is required. The design of the outboard bearings permit 45mm of axial adjustment after they have been pressurized.
- Manual bed lubrication
- Hand held walk around control for remote adjustments during set-up
- 2500 mm (98”) long in-feed straightening table
- Pneumatic open and closing of cabinet hood from switch at main control panel.
- Pneumatic exclusion from control panel of powered feeding group placed before planer spindle
- Horizontal pressure roller placed before planer with pneumatic exclusion from control panel
- Worktable with hardened insert placed before planer
- High precision spindle bearings total of four per spindle are standard

 * High degree of flexibility * |
|
MACHINE BASE:
The machine bed is of thick steel with strongly ribbed structure and MONOBLOC supporting base. The sturdiness and weight of the base reduce vibrations to a minimum as well as guaranteeing life-long constant, high quality performance. All guideways and dovetails are of solid cast.
|
* No vibration means higher quality finish *
* Maximum durability and flexibility *
|
* Simplicity eliminates “trial and error” setups *
“SET-UP” SYSTEM:
This is a patented, exclusive SCM device allowing very easy and quick set-up in every case of tool substitution. All spindles are equipped with the "SET UP" quick adjustment system, which allows the operator to set-up the machine in one single step. Simply enter the minimum diameter of the tool (in the case of a top horizontal spindle), and the tool itself, tool-working thickness, front pressers and feed rollers are automatically repositioned.
Topset Advantage
* Quick setups make even short runs more profitable *
* Simple system eliminates “trial and error” setups *
|
|
WORKTABLES:
Infeed worktable of tubular steel with parallelogram system vertical adjustment and complete with hardened insert placed before planer spindle. Worktables are of hardwearing special cast iron with low coefficient of friction, and are equipped with mobile inserts in front of the vertical spindles.
|
|
FENCES:
The right in-feed fence has a parallelogram system width adjustment and a pre-straightening function through reference engraver (tool not included). Right fences have easily adjustable sectors for correct positioning according to tools and profiles used.
|
 |
 |
|
SPINDLES:
Spindles have a hardened surface to avoid wear and are fitted with radial bearings in pairs on the front part of the spindle. The 120 mm (4 ¾”) steel spindle cylinder ensures the maximum stiffness and precision even during heavy duty machining.
Topset Advantage
* Paired radial bearing design provides consistent, high quality finish *
|

 |
|
COUNTERBEARING SUPPORT FOR HORIZONTAL SPINDLES: |
|
Each horizontal spindle is equipped with a self-centering counter (outboard) bearing support complete of a pair of bearings. The clamping of the spindle and bearings by the support is through a hydraulic bushing. The clamping of the hydraulic bushing is controlled by a simple key (therefore a grease pump is not necessary).
|
 |
|
Thanks to this technological solution, it is possible to make an axial adjustment of the spindle even if the counter bearing support is locked.
The counter bearing supports of top horizontal spindles are equipped with a locking device (hydraulic) fitted to the machine base.
|
 |
|
If a variation is required to the vertical position according to the working height, the locking device is automatically released; when the spindles are re-positioned the locking device is engaged again.
Topset Advantage
* Paired radial bearings with counter support provide consistent, high quality finish *

FEED SYSTEM:
The beam, which supports the feed system, is of a tubular ribbed structure with independent powered rise and fall. Feed rollers are driven through a set of hardened gears with oil bath lubrication (rear end) and universal joints, guaranteeing maximum reliability and constant feed even during heavy duty machining. Feed rollers are pneumatically pressurized with three independent pressure control circuits (before planer spindle, between planer spindle and top horizontal spindle and after top horizontal spindle) enabling optimal feed in accordance with the work-piece to be processed.
Spindles and feed rollers are made of steel with hardened surfaces.
Three powered rollers located in the worktable provide further improve feed reliability during machining. An idle horizontal pressure roller equipped with pneumatic exclusion from the control panel and placed before the planer spindle on the left hand infeed, enables feeding of even narrow work pieces.
Feed speed can be adjusted from operator's position through an inverter.
Spindles and feed rollers are made of steel with hardened surfaces.

|
PHT (Nip Infeed) SYSTEM:
A pair of top/bottom floating powered rollers positioned in-feed enable the work piece to be reliably fed even with warped, damp or resinous wood. This feature creates a “Push-Feed” effect for the utmost in feeding power
Topset Advantage
* Consistent feeding of stock during heavy profiling operations * |
 |
|
AUTOMATIC FEED SYSTEM ALIGNMENT WITH TOP HORIZONTAL SPINDLES:
- Under normal working conditions, the feed rollers are aligned with the minimum diameter of the tool (i.e., the pressure shoes).
- When machining batches with considerable thickness variation, the steel feed rollers can be lowered in order to optimize the feeding. Once the work has been completed, simply turn the switch to re-align the rollers.
- To remove a jammed workpiece from the machine, the steel rollers can be raised without moving the top spindle or the pressure shoes. Once the workpiece has been removed, simply turn the switch to re-align the rollers.
|
 |
|
RECEDING CHIPBREAKER:
The pressure shoe placed in front of the top horizontal spindles is equipped with parallelogram movement and pneumatic pressure adjustment.

Topset Advantage
* Distance between pressure shoe and cutting tool does not change due to varying workpiece thicknesses *
* Correct pressure on the workpiece without the risk of jamming * |
POSITIONING OF WORKING UNITS:
Adjustment of head units is controlled from the front of the machine with mechanical digital readout of position. Work piece section is displayed on electronic decimal readouts placed on machine front.
|
ERGONOMICS:
All controls are placed on the front of the machine at a suitable height for easy use. The fully enclosed booth ensures low emission of noise and dust while guaranteeing a full view of the machine at the same time.

Topset Advantage
* Easy access simplifies operation and maintenance *
* Noise level is minimized, providing a safer working environment throughout the factory*
