SPINDLE TOOLING

SOLID

CABINET DOOR
SYSTEM

The Cabinet Door System runs on a spindle moulder
with a flush mounted sliding table. It has been designed
to offer maximum flexibility and will produce nine different
profile styles with four possible panel groove thicknesses.
This enables you to produce door thicknesses from 18mm to
35mm and up to 36 different door configurations.

With the CDS you can manufacture any size of cabinet
door or internal door quickly and accurately on a spindle
moulder with a flush mounted sliding table.
Set the machine in seconds with the supplied setting
gauge and do not alter it to produce all of the profiles
and scribes.
Dispenses with lengthy set-up and costly test cuts.
All the tools and spacers are numbered and stacked
on to the machine according to the steps shown on the
wallchart.
The CDS can manufacture nine different door profile
styles.
Four panel door thicknesses can be accommodated 4mm, 5mm, 6mm & 9mm.
Door thicknesses from 18mm to 35mm can be produced.

HOW TO SET THE MACHINE
STEP 1. Ensure both in-feed and out-feed fences are running parallel to
the front of the spindle moulder.
STEP 2. Set the tenoning fence so that it is exactly at 90 degrees to the
in-feed fence.
STEP 3. Raise the spindle shaft to its maximum height. Place the setting
gauge onto the shaft of the spindle with the largest diameter at
the bottom. Place a straight edge across the front of the fences
and adjust the fences so that the straight edge just touches the
outer edge of the largest diameter of the setting gauge. Ensure
fence is parallel with the sliding table (see picture below). Lock
the fences off.

STEP 4. Stand the straight edge on its side and raise the spindle shaft
until the bottom of the straight edge just touches the top of the
widest part of the setting gauge (see picture below). Lock the
spindle height adjustment.
