The Factory Acceptance Test<\/em> (FAT)<\/strong>\u2014also known simply as the acceptance test\u2014is a critical verification procedure. Its purpose is to ensure the proper operation of CNC machining centers before installation at the customer\u2019s facility, confirming that the equipment meets the technical, contractual, and functional specifications declared by the manufacturer. <\/p>\n

During the acceptance process at SCM Group<\/a><\/strong> for Carpintaria CASANOVA<\/strong>, our specialized technician Omar Rubis performed a series of tests designed to verify the integration between the PowerWIN software and the SCM Accord 600 CNC machining center<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s take a closer look at how the acceptance procedure was carried out<\/strong>, the specifications of the machining center used for wood window and door production, and how the integration with our software solution was successfully implemented.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

What Does Carpintaria CASANOVA Do?<\/h2><\/div>

Carpintaria CASANOVA \u2013 Cruz & Oliveira<\/a><\/strong> is based in Carvalhais, in the north-central region of Portugal. For more than 30 years<\/strong>, the company has been focused on research and development in the woodworking industry, building strong expertise in advanced wood processing technologies. <\/p>\n

One of Carpintaria CASANOVA\u2019s key strengths is its wide range of products, which allows the company to manage complete interior and architectural woodworking projects from start to finish<\/strong>. Uniqueness, craftsmanship, and a strong customer-first approach<\/strong> are core elements of the company\u2019s design philosophy and represent a distinctive trait within the Portuguese woodworking sector. <\/p>\n

Always committed to innovation<\/strong>, the company has adopted modern CAD\/CAM and CNC technologies to maintain consistently high production standards. Its ongoing investment in machinery and software<\/strong> is demonstrated by the decision to implement the SCM Accord 600 CNC machining center and by the choice to integrate it with our PowerWIN software solution.<\/p>\n

This investment confirms a production strategy focused on quality, precision, and the ability to perform increasingly complex machining operations, particularly in the manufacturing of custom wood windows and doors.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Technical Specifications of the SCM Accord 600 CNC Machining Center<\/h2><\/div>

The SCM Accord 600<\/a><\/strong> CNC machining center is designed to deliver high performance<\/strong> while maintaining precision in the production of wood windows, doors, and solid wood components.<\/p>\n

Specifically, this is a bar-type CNC machining center<\/strong>, ideal for manufacturers that need to handle both custom jobs and standard production within the same workflow, ensuring maximum operational flexibility.<\/p>\n

From a technical standpoint, the machining unit of the SCM Accord 600<\/strong> consists of three independent operating units. The configuration installed at Carpintaria CASANOVA includes two electrospindles<\/strong>: a 5-axis spindle<\/strong> and a standard 4-axis spindle<\/strong>, with maximum power ratings of 13.5 kW<\/strong> and 21 kW<\/strong> respectively. Both spindles can reach speeds of up to 24,000 RPM<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

These features allow manufacturers to produce complex curved profiles<\/strong> as well as high-speed standard machining operations<\/strong> within the same production cycle. This significantly optimizes production time without requiring machine changeovers.<\/p>\n

Completing the setup is the BRC drilling unit<\/strong>, designed to manage drilling operations with horizontal and vertical spindles (up to 26 spindles in total) capable of reaching speeds of up to 8,000 RPM<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>

How the DDX Acceptance Test Was Carried Out for Carpintaria CASANOVA<\/h2><\/div>

For the DDX acceptance test for Carpintaria CASANOVA, our qualified technician Omar Rubis traveled to SCM Group<\/strong> to conduct the Factory Acceptance Test (FAT)<\/strong>. The objective was ambitious: to demonstrate that PowerWIN could efficiently manage the CNC machining process for wood windows and doors<\/strong>, a product category known for its complexity due to the wide variety of geometries, opening systems, and joinery configurations involved. <\/p>\n

Using standard lumber with reclaimed strip stock, we produced a window unit featuring:<\/p>\n
