Centauro Alfa Twin - CNC Machining Centre

Latest generation of fully programmable through feed CNC machining centre for door and frame manufacturing.

About this Product

Simultaneous door machining

The versatile and flexible Centauro Alfa Twin is ideal for a variety of door machining operations, designed for the simultaneous machining of both sides of a door. Equipped with a vacuum system that holds the door in position, the Alfa Twin can perform hinge recessing, lock slots, handle holes, key slots, and drilling of pilot holes or euro grooves with exceptional results and minimal setup time.

Easy-to-use with minimal set-up time

Programming is straightforward thanks to the intuitive colour graphic touch screen controller. This user-friendly interface features pre-installed electronic macro templates, allowing for quick and easy adjustments and making it accessible to operators of all experience levels.

Twin capabilities

The standard configuration of the Alfa Twin includes two milling heads positioned on either side of the door. The lock side automatically adjusts both vertically for handle holes and horizontally for lock case and faceplate machining. This dual-head setup ensures precise and efficient processing of door components. For enhanced functionality, the Alfa Twin offers optional additional machining operations, including producing square corner hinge plate recesses or lock face recesses using additional milling units equipped with 3mm drills. Additionally, the machine is capable of machining frames, providing even greater versatility for your production needs.

Centauro Alfa Twin FAQs

The Centauro Alfa Twin is specifically designed for high-output door production, with the ability to machine both sides of a door simultaneously. This dual-head configuration significantly reduces cycle times and labour requirements compared to traditional single-sided machining methods. 

A standard spec door can typically be machined in around two minutes. The vacuum clamping system and automatic positioning dunctions also minimise setup times and improve repeatability during production.

The Centauro Alfa Twin is a versatile CNC machine capable of carrying out a wide range of door and frame machining operations in a single setup. Typical applications include hinge recessing, lock slots and faceplates, handle holds and key slots, euro grooves and pilot hole drilling, and frame machining operations.

The machine uses two independently operating milling heads positioned on opposite sides of the door, enabling simultaneous processing for faster and more precise machining.

Programming the Centauro Alfa Twin is handled through a 15-inch colour graphic touch screen controller with built-in macro templates, allowing operators to quickly create and adjust machining programs with minimal training. 

Yes - the Centauro Alfa Twin has a range of optional features to tailor the machine to specific production requirements. These include additional milling units, automatic tool changing, motorised door movement, extended axis capabilities, glass door clamping systems, and horizontal or vertical jamb processing. 

This flexibility makes the Alfa Twin suitable for everything from standard door production to more specialised or high-volume manufacturing applications. Contact our door machinery experts to find out more.
