Tuckwell Machinery supplies precision acoustic panel cutting machines for manufacturers, joiners and fit-out teams who need consistent, high-performance sound-absorbing and soundproofing panels. Explore three Italian-engineered CNC solutions from Vitap — Micra, Point Acoustic, and Point Grooving — to cover micro-perforation, high-speed drilling and optimised grooving in a compact footprint.
“From invisible micro-perforation to ultra-fast drilling and clean grooving, Vitap’s acoustic range delivers exceptional panel performance with less handling, less space and more consistency.”
Micra is a compact CNC punching machine designed for producing micro-perforated acoustic panels. Occupying less than 5 m², it’s significantly smaller than typical micro-punching systems while still delivering high throughput and accuracy.
Vitap’s patented micro-perforation method replaces multi-machine processing and avoids the fumes associated with laser systems. The two-step workflow is simple and safe:
Micra punches holes as small as 0.5 mm, with a steel punching head configurable from 300 to 2,300 micro-holes to suit your required pattern and flow. Intuitive operation lets your team achieve high performance with minimal training.
| Micra – Technical Snapshot | Details |
|---|---|
| Minimum hole diameter | 0.5 mm |
| Punching head capacity | 300 – 2,300 micro-holes (configurable) |
| Panel thickness | Up to 50 mm |
| Y-axis panel width | Up to 1,300 mm |
| X-axis panel length | No practical limit (continuous feed) |
| Footprint | < 5 m² |
| Key advantage | Invisible micro-holes preserve aesthetics |
Point Acoustic is a dedicated CNC drilling centre for high-quality sound-absorbing wooden panels. With optimised drilling software and precision mechanics, it achieves accuracy without sacrificing speed — up to 55 holes every 4 seconds.
For specialised projects, Vitap offers easy-change special heads to match unique patterns or materials, making Point Acoustic a flexible choice for commercial interiors, auditoriums, studios and public spaces.
Point Grooving is engineered for precise, repeatable grooves in wooden panels to create acoustic and sound-insulating modules. The optimised grooving software streamlines programming, while a quick-change multi-blade shaft supports rapid setup and clean, consistent results.
