Three drill units, one positioning: two upper units and one lower unit carry 53 spindles for six-sided drilling, with two 3.5 kW routing spindles for grooving and circle milling. Data is imported once, panels never need flipping, and the extended guide rail keeps the datum on long parts.

Three drill units cover six faces, and routing spindles finish grooving and milling in the same pass
A precision-machined heavy-duty base and components keep high-speed operation stable and durable.
With the extended guide rail, long panels are machined in a single positioning, cutting clamp re-grips and speeding up the work.
An air-floating full-panel table reduces friction and prevents scratching the panel surface.
Data is imported once and all six faces are drilled without flipping the panel; symmetrical holes and grooves on both faces can be machined at the same time.
Mirror-sized workpieces can be machined as a stack — two panels at a time — doubling the processing speed.
The new six-sided series applies a shuffled frog leaping algorithm to optimise tool paths and raise efficiency.
Structure and process, built for six-sided drilling with grooving and milling
A heavy-duty base carries a precision-machined worktable 950 mm high. The table is an air-floating full-panel surface, so panels move with little friction and no scratching. The origin uses absolute memory positioning, so the machine does not re-home repeatedly after stops.
Two upper drill units and one lower unit: 22 spindles × 2 = 44 on top and 9 × 1 = 9 underneath, 53 spindles in total, so all six faces are drilled in a single clamping.
Two 3.5 kW routing spindles run at 18000 rpm for grooving and circle milling, with tool diameters of 6–10 mm and a 1/2 tool shank.
Side alignment travels at 50 m/min (0.75 kW servo) and the X-axis clamps at 120 m/min (0.75 kW servo). Y runs at 90 m/min and Z at 36 m/min, with a 1.5 kW servo on the upper drill unit and 1 kW on the lower one.
380 V / 50 Hz supply, 2.2 kW × 3 = 6.6 kW drilling motors, a 1 kW fan motor, 0.5–0.6 MPa working air pressure and two Ø200 mm extraction ports.
Understand the machine through its key components
The screen sits on a swing arm that moves to the operator position. It shows hole patterns and machining parameters, with a keyboard and panel buttons below — program recall, parameter changes and run monitoring all happen here.
Two upper drill units sit side by side on the top beam, each with its own servo feed and extraction hose, drilling vertically downwards — 22 spindles × 2 = 44 in total.
A blue safety window covers the front of the machine, so drilling can be watched while it runs; the MSK6-3XL nameplate above it makes the model and configuration easy to verify.
A belt brings the panel into position, the table edge takes Ø200 mm extraction ports with hoses running outside the frame, and an emergency stop sits next to the operator position.
Note: the detail images above are photographs of this model.
Two upper drill units feed downwards, the lower unit feeds upwards, and horizontal drilling units cover the four sides — 53 spindles across all six faces

Top face + bottom face + four side faces = six faces. Two upper drill units (22 spindles × 2 = 44) and one lower unit (9 × 1 = 9) give 53 spindles, so the panel stays in one positioning on one datum and the error of re-clamping no longer accumulates.
