Cabineo: Impressive benefits From exclusive individual pieces to large production orders: NILO Schreinerei Küchenbau AG in Wettingen specialises in the development and manufacture of custom-made and series production furniture. The company now uses the new Cabineo with high clamping force from Lamello AG to connect all their cabinets. Cutting and drilling on any CNC machine No more edge-drilling Order an info pack for free cabineo.ch NILO AG in Wettingen has a long history. Founded in 1906 by Josef Berz, the company was acquired by Nik Meier in 1982. Currently the company has a workforce of 23, and specialises in interior fitting, fitted kitchens and door production. NILO AG is known for its passion for passion for cabinet making, combined with the latest technology. The firm has been working with the new Cabineo cabinet connector since 2017, after bench cabinet maker Roger Jakob came across the innovation in an industry magazine and went on to request a free information pack at www.cabineo.ch. A quick decision The product sample and flyer that he received convinced both him and production manager Matthias Munk. Munk, who served his apprenticeship with the company, explains that, the decision to comprehensively test the new product was a very quick one. The results convinced everyone involved in the production process, and since then they have used Cabineo for connecting all the cabinets they produce. In addressing why they decided to change over to Cabineo, Munk smiles and says: There are several reasons: the stackability i.e. flat-pack delivery with preassembled connectors the ease of assembly and time savings, getting rid of the need to open bags of hardware, and the high clamping force. Quick and easy assembly One current order in Wettingen involves the production of more than 160 cupboards. The first step is to cut One-piece connector without dowel Quick connector insertion Flat-pack delivery with preassembled connectors No bags of loose fittings panels to size on the horizontal panel saw. The workpieces are then formatted and machined on one of the CNC machines available in the workshop. This example shows the Homag BMG 511 in use. A 15 mm drill is used to make the three holes for the connector. The series hole drill can also make the 5mm hole for the Cabineo no change of tool is required. The Cabineo can then be very quickly inserted, by simply tapping it into the hole. The company uses the Cabineo 12 for corner connections, and the Cabineo 8 for dividing panels. Cabineo saves time During our discussion, Munk tells us Quick assembly without pre-fitting of dowels or screws Protruding screw aligns the connection perfectly Strong connection Cabineo Cabineo Starter Set, Cabineo 8 + 12 (40 pcs eacht), incl. Cabineo hex bit and set of cover caps (40 pcs) Cabineo 8, for dividing panels, 500 pcs Cabineo 8, for dividing panels, 2000 pcs Cabineo 12, 500 pcs Cabineo 12, 2000 pcs Cabineo hex bit that before they changed over, cabinets were delivered fully assembled. Since the changeover to Cabineo, we have benefited by being able to assemble on-site and we are really happy with the time we save. Fitter Walter Rudolf confirmed that assembling the cupboard with Cabineo is much quicker and easier than with the cam. He goes on to say: The protruding screw means we can precisely align the machined furniture parts, and connecting them just needs a cordless drill. If the connector needs to be invisible which is standard at NILO AG cover caps are used. These can be fitted onto Cabineo in seconds, and Lamello AG offers them in various colours. Since introducing Cabineo, NILO AG has already used 2,500 connectors and is absolutely won over by the product. We have been using Lamello system solutions for some years, and are pleased to have such an innovative partner at our side, Munk tells us at the end of the tour. 186305 186310 186311 186320 186321 276312 2 3

Inspired by the many P-System customers who use the Clamex P-14 for their bar or kitchen worktops, the Clamex P-14 was used as a connection solution. The worktop, which goes all the way to the floor, is connected to the horizontal panels using a mitre. The workpieces are easily fitted together and powerfully fastened with or without glue all without the use of complicated clamping aids.

Cutting P-System grooves on the Holzher Nextec It goes without saying that the software supports the cutting of all standard nesting connectors which only require vertical machining. This solution for the Lamello P-System connector solution is unique, reliable and unmatched when it comes to speed. Connector pockets can be milled into the panel surface along the X and Y axis with the optional NEXTEC Clamex package. The intelligent BetterNest software and a specially developed tool also allow perfectly positioned Clamex pockets to be cut into the edges of furniture parts, before formatting them to size within a single clamping operation. Masterwood Project TF 100 The Masterwood Project TF 100 is a highly compact CNC machine equipped for drilling, milling and cutting grooves, and only requires a production area of approx. 5m 2. The TF 100 project enables the easy implementation of different types of connections from Lamello, such as the Clamex-P and Cabineo. A large tool magazine with 6 positions enables a P-System groove cutter to be fitted onto a vertical tool holder and also onto an angle aggregate. The Masterwork software enables easy and intuitive processing for the Clamex P connection system from Lamello. 10 11
