How to make cabinet doors with a cnc router

Yes, you can make cabinet doors with a cnc router.   In general, it is easier than other methods and is ideal for small-scale, occasional use.   You can use a router to make cabinet doors with a raised panel, a flat panel, or even a recessed panel with a groove cut along the edge.

A well-designed cabinet door will give a new look to the decoration of a family kitchen. Therefore, it is particularly important for the processing of cabinet doors and furniture. Many carpenters or some furniture manufacturing factories will favor CNC machines to design exquisite cabinet doors and practicability, because computer-controlled Cabinet CNC machine has higher precision and maneuverability.

Step 1 select materials and design

The solid wood closet door is the most used door in our life. If you want to produce closet doors made of metal, glass and other materials, you can use the same method. The commonly used base material for wooden cabinet doors is MDF or particleboard. Cabinet door manufacturers usually use higher-density woods, such as poplar, pine, birch, hard maple, etc., for their paint-grade cabinet doors.

Step 2 cuting and engraving

After completing the cabinet door layout in the CNC router software, you can turn on thecabinet CNC machine and start cutting and engraving the wood according to the set path. We recommend that you choose an ATC CNC router for the CNC machine tool used in this cabinet door manufacturing step. The automatic tool change machining center can cut and carve cabinets, cabinet doors and interior doors. It has a separate linear tool magazine that can automatically change tools during the cabinet door manufacturing process without stopping work in progress.

Watch the video below to learn how to use the ATC CNC router to make cabinet doors for cutting.

Your best partner for making cabinet doors and furniture. The advantages of high precision, fast speed, automatic loading and unloading, automatic tool change, etc. are combined on the same Cabinet CNC machine. CNC kitchen cabinets saves time, has high production efficiency and good processing effect. The Cabinet door machine is the best choice for cabinet and furniture making manufacturers. Of course, Cabinet CNC machine has function of cutting and nesting. If you need, HSD aggregate heads of Cabinet CNC machine is options parts for your side hole boring working.

Step 3 edge banding

After cutting the panel, the cut surface and edges will become rough or sharp, which can easily cover dirt and is also unattractive. In addition, due to the production process of the panel, formaldehyde is released. In the cabinet door manufacturing process, the edge sealing process can not only hide the rough and ugly panels inside. It can also inhibit the release of formaldehyde. Therefore, this decoration can make the house more ecological and healthy.

Step 4 Cabinet doors: drilling & grooving

Depending on specific production requirements, cabinet doors may also need to be drilled and slotted for the installation of hinges, screws, door handles, etc. Machines in this step of how to make cabinet doors include the side CNC drilling machine, hinge drill machine, sliding table saw, etc.
