Segment
CNC Router for woodworking and the furniture industry
TEKNOVA's Router CNC AMERICAN 2030 is a CNC milling machine with a working area of 223 × 365 cm, a 4.5 kW spindle at 24,000 rpm, a vacuum table with two pumps, and rack and pinion drive on the X and Y axes. In furniture manufacturing, it allows machining entire MDF sheets in nesting, performing drilling, pocketing, and profile cutting in a single setup.
In custom cabinetry and the furniture industry, the CNC Router's advantage lies in turning designs into cut parts without manual marking: the same file generates profile cuts, 32 mm system drilling, and pockets.
Choosing the model depends on the working area. Those cutting full sheets need a table that accommodates the sheet with extra room for clamping; those working with smaller pieces or acrylic can operate with a reduced area and save shop floor space.

Explore machineHow to produce furniture using nesting on a CNC Router
- Step 1
Design the parts
Model the furniture piece and export the parts with predefined drilling and rebates.
- Step 2
Perform nesting
Nest parts on the sheet to maximize material utilization and generate the machining program.
- Step 3
Clamp the sheet
Position the sheet on the matrix table and turn on the vacuum pumps to secure the material.
- Step 4
Zero axes
Set the X, Y, and Z zero point and verify end mill height before starting.
- Step 5
Machine
Run the program: the machine performs drilling, pocketing, and profile cutting in the same clamping setup.
Frequently asked questions — Furniture sector
Which CNC Router should be used for full MDF sheets?
The AMERICAN 2030, with a working area of 223 × 365 cm, accommodates standard MDF sheets with extra room for clamping.
What precision does the CNC Router deliver in furniture manufacturing?
Rack-and-pinion movement on the X and Y axes, ballscrew on the Z axis, and the hybrid servo motor ensure the repeatability required for 32 mm system drilling and joinery.
Does the Router cut acrylic and ACM in addition to wood?
Yes: MDF, wood, acrylic, ACM, PVC, and PS, with a working height of up to 20 cm.
Do you need a vacuum table for woodworking?
For full-sheet nesting, yes. The AMERICAN 2030 already comes with a vacuum matrix bed and two air-cooled pumps.
What software is used to operate the CNC Router?
Control is handled by the DDCS system, driven by programs generated in compatible CAM software. The technical team guides the workflow during installation.
