An introduction to the differences between CNC wood door lock mortising machines and conventional ones—save this now!

The body of the CNC wooden door lock‑hole machine is fabricated by welding square steel and has undergone stress testing. It is equipped with four motors: two on the sides, primarily for milling the lock‑body groove and the cover‑plate groove, and two at the front, dedicated to machining various lock‑hole profiles and drilling screw‑passage holes.

What are the differences between a CNC wooden door lock‑hole machine and a conventional lock‑hole machine? Let’s take a look.

1. Body comparison: Conventional mortising machines are typically constructed by welding steel, whereas CNC mortising machines are fabricated by welding 100×100 steel square tubing and feature an additional 100‑mm steel plate welded to the front.

2. Motor Comparison: Conventional mortising machines typically come equipped with three standard motors, while CNC mortising machines usually feature two to four high‑frequency motors.

3. Transmission Comparison: Conventional mortising machines typically use adjustable cylinders and eccentric‑cam drives, resulting in straightforward operation. CNC mortising machines, on the other hand, are driven by adjustable pneumatic cylinders, stepper motors, and servo motors, enabling greater flexibility and versatility in performing various tasks.

4. Degree of machining: Typically, a conventional mortising machine features a single motor on the side, driven by an eccentric cam to produce a single locking groove, usually sized to match the cover‑plate groove. In contrast, a CNC wooden door mortising machine employs two motors and stepper motors to precisely control both the lock body groove and the cover‑plate groove.

5. Operational Comparison: Conventional mortising machines require multiple tool‑change steps during installation, whereas CNC mortising machines use a single standard tool holder for tool changes.

6. Pricing: Conventional mortising machines are relatively inexpensive, making them suitable for enterprises that produce fixed‑lock hardware components and for wooden door manufacturers with a daily output of fewer than 100 units. CNC mortising machines offer greater flexibility in processing and command higher price points; they are ideal for handling a wide variety of locks and are best suited for manufacturers with larger production volumes.

What are the features of a CNC wood door lock‑hole machine? Let’s take a look.

1. It can mill not only the lock cover‑plate groove and the lock body groove on the door’s side face, but also the groove and hole on the door’s vertical face. 2. Highly efficient—machining a single lock‑hole groove takes just over one minute. 3. Simple and intuitive operation; even ordinary workers can use it. 4. The machine features a lock‑type storage function, capable of storing up to 99 different lock types. 5. Stable performance, thanks to the use of linear guides and sliders, along with a ball screw.

What are the advantages of a CNC wood door lock‑hole machine? Let’s take a look.

1. Simple operation: Even ordinary workers can use it—no specialized programmers required—and the touchscreen is easy to program. 2. A dedicated door lock controls the management system; the lock’s design accommodates various door types, and one‑button slotting makes setup convenient. 3. The side lock‑hole cutter employs a high‑power electric spindle, delivering high cutting efficiency under gravity. 4. Equipped with an automatic material‑feeding conveyor belt that can interface with roller conveyors, it also offers an optional automatic positioning feature. During material loading, the belt rises, carrying the workpiece to the rear of the machine; when the workpiece approaches the positioning cylinder, the belt stops, and a side‑pushing cylinder advances the part into the side positioning cylinder. Once positioned, both the belt and the positioning cylinder lower. 5. This CNC wood door lock‑hole machine utilizes advanced software control, with numerous algorithms developed from the ground up, ensuring intuitive and effortless operation.
