Tuckwell Machinery supplies Elumatec copy routers for aluminium and PVC profile machining workshops across Queensland.
The Elumatec AS 70/44, AS 170/00, KF 78 and KF 178 copy routers are designed for accurate routing of slots, recesses, lock cylinders, handle holes, round rosettes and hardware preparation in aluminium and PVC profiles. If you are comparing copy routers, an aluminium copy router or an Elumatec copy router for professional fabrication work, Tuckwell Machinery can help you select the right model.
As the sole agent for Elumatec in Queensland, Tuckwell Machinery supports Queensland fabricators with machine advice, installation, machine set-up, operator training, servicing and genuine Elumatec parts.
A copy router is used to transfer a cutting pattern from a template or stop into a workpiece, usually aluminium or PVC window and door profiles. Copy routing at a 1:1 ratio allows fabricators to create repeatable shapes, slots and apertures for locks, handles, latches, fittings and other hardware requirements.
Elumatec copy routers are built for professional profile machining, with pneumatic material clamping, high spindle speed, pulsed coolant and model options to suit compact work, larger profiles and dual-plane lock and handle routing.
The Elumatec copy router range includes compact single-spindle machines, larger range single-spindle options, the KF 78 two-spindle copy router for vertical and horizontal routing, and the KF 178 three-spindle copy router for economical door manufacturing.
The AS 70/44 is a versatile single-spindle copy router for aluminium and PVC profile machining. It supports 1:1 copy routing from templates, routing using stops for rectangular cutting patterns and quick set-up in only a few steps.
The AS 170/00 offers a large cutting range while maintaining a compact design. Its adjustable table height accommodates profiles up to 400 mm, while the patented copy lever suspension supports precision routing with minimal effort.
The KF 78 is designed for routing lock cylinders and handle holes up to a profile thickness of 70 mm. It uses two independent copy routing units for vertical and horizontal routing in two planes.
The KF 178 is designed for economical door manufacturing, including routing lock cylinders and round rosettes in profile systems or multi-chamber profiles with large dimensional depths. It uses three independent copy routing units with separate control of the horizontal and vertical router heads.
