Notching

Notching machines are designed to make accurate, repeatable cuts in wood components for joinery, hardware clearance, assembly and decorative profiles. By replacing time-consuming manual layout and cutting, they help woodworking professionals produce consistent parts with less handling and rework.

Notching equipment can support a range of cabinetmaking, furniture and millwork applications. Depending on the machine configuration, it may be used for drawer-box notching, hinge or hardware clearance, beaded face frames, French-mitered cabinet doors, muntins, mullions and other components that require a clean, controlled cut. Some machines combine notching and drilling operations to prepare parts for hardware installation in a single workflow.
