answer to first question

Attached is the complete list of recommended spare parts for the above stated single-head boring machines ...

For pricing information, please contact our spare parts office (service@maggi-technology.com)."

Please refer to the attached table for the available types of hinge aggregates ...

Please refer to the attached drawings for the requested information...

 The hinge drilling aggregates attach to the spindles on the head with a simple click, just like regular drill bits.

Please refer to the attached image...

Please refer to the attached documentation...

 The quick-change chucks (code 36000061) are mechanical tool holders that allow for the rapid mounting and removal of drill bits on the head of the boring machine, without the need for additional tools, just a click!

Please, refer to the enclosed table ...

No, these features are exclusive to the BORING SYSTEM 21 TECHNOLOGY model.

Yes, the reference pins can be applied on both sides of the machine and used both individually and simultaneously

Yes,  Maggi semi-automatic boring machines, both single-head and multi-head, are also available in the single-phase motor format.

Please, refer to the enclosures ...

In traditional single-spindle drilling machines (BORING SYSTEM 21 PRESTIGE, BS 23, BS 29, and BS 35), the drilling angle is set manually by adjusting a reference stop on a metric rod, as shown in the video (at minute 4:55). In the BORING SYSTEM 21 TECHNOLOGY model, however, the drilling angle is set electronically via a touch-screen display (video at minute 2:46). Please refer to the videos of both types of machines for further reference."

The reference pin is not just a generic alternative to the bar; in the case of processing (inline vertical drilling) panels longer than 2 meters, it becomes ESSENTIAL to complete the work!

Look at the attached drawings; as you can see, the third and final part of the operation cannot be completed with just the bar because the profile is not long enough to provide the necessary references. Furthermore, the reference pin is always to be preferred over the bar and should be recommended to the customer when precision is an essential requirement!

The maximum usable distance is 300 mm and corresponds to the maximum stroke of the rear stop as seen in the attached image...

Maggi boring machines can work with all types of panels (MDF, particleboard, plywood, hardwood...) as well as solid wood.

For working with solid wood, we recommend the BS 35 model, which is equipped with two motors and therefore has greater drilling power.

The HINGE AGGREGATE - accessory (see available types in the attachment) is used to create the 3 holes necessary for the application of a hinge in a single work cycle.

MOUNTING The mounting is easy and fast, you just need to click the hinge aggregate onto the quick-change bushings (accessory) present on the head of the boring machinel, as shown in image A. The hinge aggregate can be mounted in any position on the head, taking into account the rotation direction of each spindle (red spindle - left rotation / black spindle - right rotation). If, for example, the central spindle of the hinge aggregate (which is the one that transmits the rotation to the bits) will be positioned on a BLACK spindle (right rotation), then the central bit of the head (35 mm diameter bit) will rotate to the right, and consequently the two smaller side bits will rotate to the left, and vice versa in the opposite case (see attached image B).

ADJUSTMENT When making the holes for the hinge with the aggregate on a single-head boring machine, it is essential to carry out a careful adjustment and use specific bits with a maximum length of 28.5 mm to AVOID COLLISIONS between the hinge-aggregate itself and the head unit and/or with the panel to be machined!

The following are all the necessary instructions for optimal adjustment:

1. The height of the boring head must be adjusted to a minimum of 35 mm using the special numerical counter (see attached photo C)
2. The maximum drilling depth, to be set, through the Spiral System device, is 24 mm (the actual drilling depth will be 14 mm, considering the automatic differential of 10 mm installed on the machine (for more information on this point, see the corresponding FAQ :  AUTOMATIC 10 mm DIFFERENTIAL))
3. The head must be positioned vertically (vertical drilling from the bottom)
4. The clamping-unit holding bar must be moved to the end of the stroke (as shown in photo D)
5. The rear fence must be positioned 54 mm from the zero point (as shown in photo E)
6. The center of the 35 mm diameter bit on the hinge aggregate will be our reference for drilling and therefore for adjusting the squares on the top, the rear stop and any stops on the bar.

The rotation speed of the bits is 2800 RPM (revolutions per minute), which is the same as the motor speed, and it cannot be adjusted; however, it is possible to adjust the forward speed of the head, and therefore the entry speed of the bits into the panel, using a specific control located on the front of the machine.

In the range of Maggi single-head drills, there are two types of fences on the tabletop:

For the BS 21 PRESTIGE, it has cast iron folding fences with manual adjustment on a metric scale bar with a magnify glass. The reference point for drilling is SINGLE and is represented by the central spindle on the head or zero point. The perfect parallelism of the fences is obtained using a special "compass" device (ACCESSORY).

For all other single-head drills: BS 21 TECHNOLOGY, BS 23, BS 29, BS 35, they have cast iron removable fences with manual adjustment on numerical counters. In this case, there are two reference points for drilling: the center of the first and last spindle. The setting of the two fences via high precision numerical counters always ensures perfect parallelism, without the need for additional adjustments.

See the attached image for more clarity.

See the attached instructions and images that refer to the semi-automatic single-head boring machines models with manual adjustment of drilling parameters: BS 21 PRESTIGE / BS 23 / 29 / 35

As for the BS 21 TECHNOLOGY, the adjustment of height, angle and drilling depth is ELECTRONIC via a TOUCH-SCREEN.

The maximum usable distance between the shoulders of the single-head drill for the LONGITUDINAL passage of the panel varies by model. Here are the complete details, with an example image of the machining process attached...

BORING SYSTEM 21 PRESTIGE: 897 mm 

BORING SYSTEM 21 TECHNOLOGY: 897 mm 

BORING SYSTEM 23: 961 mm 

BORING SYSTEM 29: 1,153 mm 

BORING SYSTEM 35: 1,345 mm

See the attached drawings ... 

The hinge head units are offered by Maggi as accessories for their single-head and 3-head drills to allow the creation of the 3 holes for hinge application in a single drilling cycle. There are various types of head unit (see attached image), for each of which we recommend using specific 38.5 mm length drill bits (see attached image) - a 35 mm diameter center bit and 8 or 10 mm diameter side bits.

The hinge head unit can be installed on any spindle of the drill head, whether it rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, so the rotation direction of the bits is not a limiting factor. For ease of use, Maggi offers the 35 mm diameter center bit with a CLOCKWISE rotation and the side bits with a COUNTERCLOCKWISE rotation. The 3 bits can be purchased separately or as a kit.

The drill bit length to use, in order to reach the maximum drilling depth (65 mm) with the Maggi BORING SYSTEM single-head boring machine, is 85 mm.

You can verify this data by reading the information on the SPIRAL SYSTEM device, which allows for quick setting of the drilling depth on all Maggi single-head boring machines. See the attached photo.

For the lubrication of the heads of the multi-spindle boring machines , we recommend using EP 2 type grease. We advise checking the optimal lubrication level every 500 hours of operation.

Attached are instructions and images to correctly perform the lubrication of the drilling head of the multi-spindle boring machines ...

The attached image shows the necessary workspace ...

The hinge aggregates that we offer as accessories, in order to make the 3 holes necessary for the application of classic door hinges in a single work cycle, can be applied to the drilling heads of the following Maggi drilling machines: 

- BORING SYSTEM 21 PRESTIGE

- BORING SYSTEM 21 TECHNOLOGY

- BORING SYSTEM 23

- BORING SYSTEM 29

- BORING SYSTEM 35

- BORING SYSTEM 323

- BORING SYSTEM 323 DIGIT

HINGE AGGREGATE CANNOT BE APPLIED ON THE BORING SYSTEM 46 DRILLING MACHINE

The drilling aggregates for hinges and for Cabineo can be applied to all traditional Maggi drilling machines, EXCEPT THE BORING SYSTEM 46

See comparative table in the attached images ...

The total work cycle time with the Cabineo software depends on the set drilling speed, and is:

• 22 seconds at the lowest speed
• 16 seconds at medium speed
• 10 seconds at the highest speed"

The aggregate for creating Cabineo joint holes must be positioned at the 3 points on the drilling head where the slots for large-sized drill bits are located, as can be seen in the attached image.

The characteristics and performance of the 5 models that make up the Maggi BORING SYSTEM single-head drilling machine family are very similar. The specific features to consider when choosing the ideal model for your needs are showed in the attached table ...
