The SCM company has grown strongly thanks to a selection of acquisitions and the width of its product range. Originally, there was only a small range of woodworking machines revolving around its key brand, SCM, with individual machines being outsourced to their other subsidiaries. Even today, SCM still retains a particularly wide range of woodworking machines.
When it comes to saws, SCM offers a wide selection of circular saws which are divided into the two main groups panel saws and sliding table saws.
SCM’s current production range includes five panel-dividing saws. These are:

SCM Sigma Impact
The SCM Sigma Impact is an affordable all-rounder machine for serial production
SCM Prima / Prima P
This is also an affordable all-purpose machine for panels up to 4.20 metres in width and 2.20 metres in length. If requested (P version), the machine can be fitted with easy-to-use software, which enables additional processing options.
SCM Impact P
This machine combines edge banding, milling, drilling and sawing. If requested, it can be equipped with powerful software.
SCM Verticut
The Verticut is a panel saw used for vertical cutting.
SCM Cella Flexstore S - Sigma
The Cella Flexstore S model is a panel saw which is available with or without a lifting table. A 3-axis storage system can optimise material flow and shorten production times.
SCM currently offers nine different types of sliding table saw. These are complemented by six further models produced by their subsidiary MINIMAX. SCM’s sliding table saws include:

SCM L´Invincible SI X, L´Invincible SI 3, L´Invincible SI 5
L´Invincible series sliding table saws are characterised by their varied and programmable processing options. They feature a work surface of 3.2 x 3.2 metres and a saw blade pivot range of 46° in both directions. The various types primarily differ in terms of motor performance and the cutting height of the pre-scorer unit.

SCM SI 300 Class, 350 Class, 400 Class, 550 Class
The SCM Class 200 is a purely manual solution for small workshops. It features high precision and durability. The slightly reduced ease-of-use is compensated for by a particularly appealing price. The series above the 550 offer electronic controls and increased performance.

SCM SI 300 Nova and 400 Nova
The SCM Nova series features budget solutions. The models within this series are particularly affordable but without compromising on quality, usability, or durability.
SCM planer and thicknessers are supplied in three series and five types. They facilitate comprehensive processing of thick materials using the latest techniques. They are complemented by three other highly affordable, manual wood planers produced by the subsidiary, MINIMAX.
SCM L´invicible SCM Class SCM Nova Model: F7 L´invicible Models: F410 Class/ F520 Class Models: F410 Nova/ F520 Nova The premium series is ‘L’invincible’. It enables maximum precision and features durability and ease-of-use, which make it ideal for serial production using thick wooden materials. The SCM F520 Class and F410 Class represent the mid-range price segment. The ‘Nova’ series with its F520 and F410 cover the lower end of the SCM planer
thicknesser range.
Those looking for more affordable planers or thicknessers made by SCM would do well to look at their subsidiary, MINIMAX, who produce the F 52 Elite S and F 41 Elite S.
SCM milling machines are also separated into sub-divisions: ‘L´Invincible’, ‘Nova’, ‘Class’, ‘W Classic’ and ‘Elite’. In total, there are nine different table milling machines made by SCM.

Spindle moulder The excellent products from the ‘L´Invincible’ range offer top-level programmable controls. The ‘Class’ range is supplied without electronic controls. The ‘Elite’ and ‘W Classic’ spindle moulders models are suitable for particularly tight budgets thanks to reduced equipment and Chinese manufacture. The low prices for which they can be acquired mean they are also of interest to private individuals. In addition to SCM table milling machines, the company also supplies combination sawing/milling machines and a selection of routers. These are produced exclusively by the subsidiary MINIMAX.

For its edge banding machines, SCM took a completely different path compared to its thicknessers, saws and milling machines. Within this division, SCM provides manufacturers with manual devices and MINIMAX devices are supplied with simple, serial processing in mind. To be precise, the Olimpic E10 is the only edgebander currently produced by SCM. This manual stand-alone device is ideally complemented by the ‘Olimpic t20’ edge-milling machine. The top model amongst SCM edgebanders is the MINIMAX ME 25. It features an integrated glue pot and was exclusively designed for serial production.
Grinding machines are produced by SCM itself, as well as its subsidiaries DMC and MINIMAX. DMC’s range features a whole selection of very high-performance machines for industrial applications. Again, MINIMAX is responsible for supplying budget solutions for smaller operations and private users. DMC supplies wide belt sanders, special solutions, as well as wide belt calibration machines and automated fine grinding machines. DMC wide belt sanders are available in nine different series. They provide excellent performance for especially demanding applications. High through-put, ease of use and maximum productivity were the key aspects taken into consideration in the development process.
The models created by SCM are somewhat ‘slimmer'. The Sandya series ‘Sandya 5’, ‘Sandya 5S’ and ‘Sandya 10’ are wide belt sanders and have a similar appearance and range of equipment to DMC devices; however, they are mostly of a smaller size. DMC’s ‘System TT 1650’ is a specialist machine for finishing painted panels in preparation for polishing. It is ideal for furniture panels that require the application of several paint layers. Finally, DMC provides a highly efficient double grinding machine in the form of its ‘System BT22 2200’ and ‘System BT44 1350’, which enable workpieces to be sanded simultaneously on their top and lower surfaces.
SCM offers a limited selection of solutions for the art of window-making, but they lack nothing in terms of performance. One of the top models is the fully-automated ‘Integra’, which is highly reliable and facilitates consistent precision even across large series, thus making it ideal for industrial applications.
SCM’s ‘Domino’, ‘Dogma’ and ‘Windor’ CNC lines mean there is a machine for every budget and field of application. The ‘Domino’ is the highest performing and features an impressive output. The ‘Windor’ is an outstanding device to provide support in the manufacture of windows. SCM’s range means every type of window-making business – from small- to large-scale – will be able to find just the right piece of machinery for their needs.
The selection of CNC processing centres is particularly large. In conjunction with its subsidiary MORBIDELLI, SCM offers a total of 21 different series of CNC machining centres. This range is supplemented by the ROUTECH CHRONOS HT universal processing centre. This CNC processing centre is specially designed for highly demanding applications: curved, complex shapes can be produced in any quantity using this universal machine.
SCM’s CNC processing centres are available from the Ergon and Accord series. The Accord series features the Accord NST, Accord 25, 30, 40 and 50 FX as well as Accord WD, which means there is a machine available for every requirement. SCM provides highly flexible, modular solutions for every type of serially processed wood. Panel-working, furniture manufacturer, door- and window-making and much more can be performed using these machines.
