During Xylexpo 2024<\/strong>, SCM fielded a new philosophy for a novel, fully multimedia approach. “The numerous visitors who have gathered at the group\u2019s stand have been able to enjoy a unique experience, discovering a wide range of technological and digital innovations in a fully multimedia fashion. SCM has \u201cbroken with tradition\u201d by turning up at a trade fair for the first time ever with no machines: a choice in line with the group\u2019s focus on sustainability and environmental impact which demonstrates their ability to lead even in how they communicate with the market and mainly stems from a precise vision, increasingly focused on everything \u201cbeyond the machine\u201d to fully support clients with their business needs<\/em>“, explained the group. The stand has a series of corners around its perimeter complete with screens providing a detailed description of the width and depth of the range of technological solutions which SCM is capable of offering to meet every specific production process in the sector. Focus has shifted away from the client\u2019s product and towards their needs in terms of support, control advise and productivity: the new WIN MES software has been presented on this occasion to deal with the factory\u2019s IT flow. Another key objective in SCM\u2019s vision is to supply automated, integrated and complete processes for the entire woodworking sector. Stateoftheart multimedia and immersive tools have projected visitors into the heart of SCM\u2019s limitless product offer. Innovations for every field of application have been illustrated furniture and kitchens, windows, doors, flooring, timber construction, surface treatment, joinery and boats and caravans with the integration of CMS solutions, another of the group\u2019s brands specialising in technologies for machining other materials such as glass, marble, metal, plastic and composite materials. There has been no shortage of live linkups with SCM\u2019s Technology Centers in Italy to illustrate the new flexible industrial cells for beam saw, nesting, edgebanding and drilling, integrated with automatic storages and articulated robots, just like the integrated solutions for sanding and finishing to machine cabinet doors, windows and doors, and parquet.<\/p>\n \u201cThe new entries show how innovation remains key to SCM\u2019s strategy. The group continues to invest 7% of its turnover each year in research and development and in 2023, it was among the top ten Italian companies filing patent requests, according to Epo Patent Index data issued by the European Office of Patents<\/em>\u201d, added Pietro Gheller during the press conference . R&D investments at the Wood Division will always be increasingly focused on the machining stages which are more determinant on the quality of the end product, like edgebanding<\/strong>, cnc machining centres and the entire process for surface treatment where SCM, together with Superfici can provide a selection of complete and integrated solutions\u201d. On the subject of which, Xylexpo has also been an opportunity to inaugurate the new ScmSuperfici Technology Center in nearby Villasanta, in the heart of Brianza. These 2,000 square meters were used to organise tangible demonstrations on a wide range of products and services: not just the Superfici solutions for finishing but also for a wide range of other technologies belonging to the group to complete the production processes of furniture, doors and windows, construction and joinery work. Some of the other new entries at Xylexpo include the new software Maestro Lab<\/strong> (cnc machining centre and drilling machines) for CAD\/CAM programming both from the office and from the machine, Maestro active beam&wall<\/strong> (cnc machining centres for timber construction), the optimiser for Maestro optiwise and Maestro stackwise panel saws for stacking pieces during the bespoke cutting process, as well as Maestro edgestore manager<\/strong> (edgebanding) to centrally manage the edges. The technological innovations present include:<\/p>\n Cargo<\/strong>, a patented loading and unloading system which can be integrated into cnc morbidelli m200 and accord 500\/600<\/strong> machining centres to machine panels and doors. New version of windorflex, automatic cell to create complete windows and doors, nowadays with two loading devices and a frontloading bench. New gabbiani p95<\/strong> and gabbiani pt95<\/strong> panel saws designed for both batch 1 production and the production line. New stefani m, industrial edgebanding with a highly competitive investment, with advanced technological solutions for excellent automatic set up and design levels every time. New dmc system with laser unit to create sophisticated finishes and threedimensional scorings on parquet, wooden pieces and panels. The new multifunction roller unit available on the dmc sd 90<\/strong> sanding and calibrating machines to switch from calibrating to sanding unfinished, veneered and painted solid wood panels in a matter of minutes. For the finishing, stateoftheart UV processes and UV LED polymerisation systems with Superfici patented system for the finish and solutions for robotic sprayer to machine both the panel and windows and doors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SCM has illustrated its technological and digital innovations in a completely new and multimedia fashion, by placing all its attention on the client\u2019s new production and business needs in terms […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":1064,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15984","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
\nPietro Gheller<\/strong>, SCM Wood Division\u2019s Director pointed this out at a press conference organised at the stand: \u201cThe numerous innovations presented at Xylexpo demonstrate SCM\u2019s ability to develop a longstanding, continuous and shared relationship with clients, and to support their needs not only throughout the entire life cycle of a machine, but for the whole duration of its entrepreneurial activity. This is possible not only thanks to technology which is still the core of the group\u2019s experience but by offering an ecosystem of software, services, skills and experience with a very high added value<\/em>\u201d. In line with this vision, increasingly focused on service, SCM has presented a vast programme of innovations strongly centred around new market demands in terms of digitalisation and sustainability, and on new Industry 5.0 scenarios.<\/p>\n
\nAlso on show at the stand is an area for clients\u2019 finished products to get handson experience of the result achieved, from a quality and finishing point of view, thanks to the group\u2019s machines and systems.<\/p>\n
\nLastly, at the heart of stand, visitors to Xylexpo have been able to explore SCM\u2019s new, fully operational Digital Control Room which digitally interprets the group\u2019s values: the relationship with the client (\u201cyou will never work alone<\/strong>\u201d) via the proactive service enabled by the Maestro connect IoT system and sustainability. Sustainability towards the environment via new energy monitoring functions, sustainability of operations via the predictive maintenance and business sustainability guaranteed by the increase in productivity and the Service Bundle packages. Lastly, but equally important, the concept of sustainability towards people which takes the form of sharing technical knowledge and continuous training.<\/p>\n
