Of course, the conference isn't all work and no play! It also gives everyone a chance to socialize and catch up on news, as well as the opportunity to award our top sellers special prizes at the awards dinner.
This year, our top dealership was Automation Associates, Inc. Second and third places went to Tech Con and S.K.F. Enterprises. The award for the dealership with the Most Improved Sales for 2015 went to Cam Automatizacion. The award for top International Sales went to Carbon Studio/AP Group, LLC out of Russia.

The Thermwood Multi-Purpose Five Axis Series are all great machines for trimming formed parts,patterns and moldsusing five-axis simultaneous motions, but you may be wondering which one would work best for your specific application?
To help you decide, we'll focus on comparing the Model 67 and Model 90 below. These heavy-duty moving-table machines are ideal for high-speed trimming and pattern machining, and come in either single or dual table configurations:
Multi-Purpose 67
The Multi-Purpose 67is an entry-level five axis specifically developed for three-dimensional machining, available with a variety of either single or dual moving aluminum table sizes.
Available Features:
Single table sizes from 5'x5' to 10'x5' or dual table sizes from 5'x5' to 5'x12'
The Multi-Purpose 90 is a heavy-duty five-axis designed for high-speed trimming and pattern machining, available in single or dual moving aluminum tables. It is capable of full five axis simultaneous motions with extremely fast accelerations.
The Thermwood Cut Ready Cut Center is an exciting alternative to traditional CNC routers for making a wide variety of products including cabinets, closets, furniture, doors, drawers and much more. Just tell the machine what you what to make and it does it...it is that simple! NOprogramming is required.
Other CNC Routers - Lots of Programming Required
Every CNC router, regardless of price, has one thing in common..it must be programmed. You willneed a CNC programmer. A typical CNC programmer will cost you more each month than the payment on a Thermwood Cut Center, which does notneed CNC programs or CNC programmer
So, even if a machine was FREE, it would still cost you more than a Thermwood Cut Center, and in a few years the Cut Center payments go away while your programmer costs most likely will go up.
"Maybe I'll Just Program it Myself..."
Good luck! CNC routers require a constant stream of programs to run. Solving problems, like damaged or scrapped parts or defects in material means even more CNC programs. Programming custom cabinets on a CNC router is a full time job….good thing you have nothing else to do!
And then there’s software. Cheap cabinet software is limited and difficult. It takes more time which means more money. Really good software can cost as much, or more than your cheap router.
And there’s scrap. You will have one or more partial sheets left from each job. Regardless of what they tell you, it is so difficult, complex and expensive to add this to new jobs that virtually everyone just throws it away. With the Cut Center, you just scan the label on any extra material lying around and it is added to the job, automatically. This can mean a lot of money saved at the end of the year.
Thermwood Cut Center - Get Into Production Quickly
Also, it is likely you will be in full production with a Thermwood Cut Center in about a half a day. A CNC router can take as much as six months to program and get to that point. A half a day or a half a year? There is serious cost associated with that half a year.
Other CNC Routers - Not So Cheap After All
When you consider everything, a cheap router isn’t so cheap after all. In fact, to match a Thermwood Cut Center they would have to pay YOU to use their router.
Instead of looking for the cheapest possible CNC router, do this thing right, get a Thermwood Cut Center….your life will be better and you will make more money.
What our Cut Center Customers Think...
More about the Thermwood Cut Center:
Operate as a Cut Center with No Programming
With the award-winning Thermwood Cut Center, there are no computers or design software. Everything is already in the machine. There is no programming. The cut center doesn’t need a computer to tell it how to move because it already knows how to make cabinets. Just tell it what you want to make, and it does it - it is that simple!
Operate as a CNC Router
Also, you can operate the system as a CNC router in the traditional manner, running programs generated with virtually any CNC software. Thermwood has created a simple way to switch between operating as a CNC router and operating as a Cut Center to assure that all machine parameters are properly reset and that the standard Cut Center tooling is properly installed, checked and ready to run.

The Thermwood AutoProcessor is a high-speed, automatic load/unload, heavy-duty three-axis CNC routing system for nested based feed through machining. Available in a variety of machine table sizes, it is used in nested based production of cabinets, closets and custom furniture.
How it Works:
With each cycle, the machine simultaneously labels one sheet while positioning and machining the other sheet. It then off-loads the finished parts while loading the next sheet and repeats the process. Dust collection during this process keeps scrap and debris to a minimum.Labels help the operator to quickly sort the parts, and Assembly Marks help final assembly happen quickly and easily.
