While we specialise in machining timber, we can and do carve some other materials and also have a capability for Incremental Sheet Forming (ISF) in aluminium, steel and other metals. Our workshop is also fully equipped with traditional joinery machinery, a vacuum kiln for timber drying, 3-axis CNC router, lathes, mills and welding facilities (MIG, TIG, ARC) to complement our robot machining equipment.  

Some examples of past work include:

• Architectural scale wood milling of sculptural timber elements and facades
• Bandsaw milling of curved timber beams, sleepers, seating and pier edging
• Milling of sculptural pieces for artists and designers
• Public artworks – machining of casting patterns, elements and large sculptures
• Milling of solid wood sculptural furniture components
• Automated and adaptive robotic workflows with probing/scanning to inform placement/size of machined details
• Machining of sculpted timber speaker boxes and horns
• Oversized wood turning of pieces from 0.3m to 3.6m diameter
• Machining of accurate joinery details into natural round timber logs to interface with other timber and steel structural elements
• Bandsaw milling sculptural facades and feature walls
• Robot carved surface textures
• Incremental sheet forming of parts for musical instruments, facades and cars
• Customisations based on our own furniture designs
• Complex CNC machining of CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) and mass timber materials
• Sculptural commissions and custom furniture commissions

If your project requires the CNC machining or robot machining of large timber elements, or requires some unconventional manufacturing, get in touch with our Melbourne workshop! We are always looking to push the limits of what is possible with our robot.
