What is wood routing and what is it used for?
Routing is the process of shaping, engraving, or machining edges and surfaces of wood using a rotating tool that removes material with precision. It is one of the most versatile woodworking techniques, essential for creating joints, grooves, holes, and decorative or structural profiles. From structural components and bespoke furniture to shaped panels, routing is central to projects that demand both creativity and technical precision.

Which SCM machines are designed for wood routing?
SCM provides an advanced range of routing machines, including high-precision CNC machining centres ideal for automated operations, and universal machines designed for smaller workshops that require both accuracy and versatility. SCM routers are recognised for their stability, power, and outstanding build quality.

What does an SCM router do for wood, and what are the benefits?
Routing can be performed on flat surfaces, edges, or three-dimensional parts. The tool is adjusted according to the operation and material, while the workpiece moves along programmed or manually controlled paths. SCM machines enable full process automation, ensuring consistent precision even on complex geometries, while simpler models offer intuitive manual operation.

SCM routers are built to deliver reliability, speed, and superior finishing quality. They feature advanced numerical control systems, precision linear guides, solid worktables, and compatibility with a wide range of routing tools, guaranteeing professional results for every level of production.
