The Future is Here, and it’s Fast

The 994-X Machining Center revolutionizes the way door manufacturers and distributors process and deliver high quality products to residential markets across the globe. Processing both Interior and Exterior doors on a single machine is now possible with virtually no changeover time: it’s as fast and simple as the press of a button.

The 994-X processes doors between 6’6” and 8’0”, with hinge varying radiuses of 1/4”, 5/8” to Square with virtually no cycle time penalty. Switching between beveled and non-beveled door processing modes requires no changeover time or manual adjustments.

Typical cycle time is between 45 and 50 seconds.

Cutting Edge Technology

The 994-X utilizes state-of-the-art components and computing to deliver lightning fast performance:

Components

Hi-Frequency Routers increase hinge-pocket quality by maintaining high speeds as they mortise, minimizing tool flex and over-travel
Counter-Rotating Routers eradicate the need for chip-out blocks, thus eliminating the need for manual adjustment during hinge-size changes
Point-to-point Pre-drill Routers replace air operated systems and allow the rapid modification of pre-drill patterns while fully complying with OSHA mandated decibel levels
Auto-Chisels provide perfectly square hinges without the need of tools or manual adjustments, only adding 1-2 seconds to cycle time

Computing

Kval has partnered with the Beckhoff Automation Group to bring bleeding-edge motion control technology and hardware to residential CNC door machinery
Kval’s highly skilled, forward thinking internal software development team has pioneered some of the most exciting and revolutionary technological advancements the industry has ever seen

Take Your Production to the Next Level

The 994-X is the perfect fit for door manufacturers and distributors who require substantial capacity and exceptional flexibility, especially those who:

Batch entire-home orders together to increase efficiency & eliminate order fulfillment mistakes
Require 350+ doors of different lengths, widths, and thicknesses per 8-hour shift
Require the ability to process interior and exterior doors on a single machine line
Perform multiple hinge size changes each week
Require the ability to change pre-drill patterns or depth on-the-fly
Require the ability to change hinge size or mortise depth on-the-fly
