Precision and efficiency for premium solid wood solutions

10/25/2022

Pfiffer Bútor Mór Kft. is a family-owned company with more than 30 years of experience in solid wood processing. Based in Mór, Hungary, the company produces premium solid wood furniture, furniture fronts, and interior architectural elements for joineries and project-oriented customers – always with a strong focus on quality, dimensional accuracy and delivery reliability.

With growing demand for multi-layer solid wood components (and especially for the company's proprietary three-layer door constructions), the requirements placed on the production processes increased in turn. The key challenge was to maintain exceptional quality and on-time delivery while producing lamellas with precise thicknesses, high repeat accuracy, and minimal distortion – an especially critical factor for multi-layer components and furniture fronts.

Thin-cut technology as the key enabler

As part of a successful investment project supported by public funding, Pfiffer Bútor decided to install the WINTERSTEIGER DSB Singlehead NG XM thin-cut lamella saw. The machine was integrated into the existing production line and commissioned in the first half of 2025, since when it has been indispensable in manufacturing the lamellas used in three-layer door elements.

The decision was driven by several decisive factors:

  • Extremely thin kerf width for maximum material yield
  • Outstanding dimensional accuracy and repeatability
  • Energy efficiency and fast set-up times
  • High machine reliability, combined with excellent service support, availability, and flexibility from WINTERSTEIGER that clearly outperformed alternative solutions on the market.

Higher yield, consistent quality, improved process stability

Following installation, production workflows were optimized so that the DSB Singlehead NG XM now precisely separates solid wood blocks into lamellas. The extremely thin saw band reduces material loss while delivering higher accuracy and superior surface quality on stable lamellas. A major efficiency gain comes from the ability to process blocks with a cutting width of up to 350 mm. This allows Pfiffer Bútor to work with wider blocks, reducing the number of processing steps and significantly increasing throughput. The result is a 10–30 % increase in lamella output from the same volume of raw material, along with faster, more predictable, and resource-efficient production.

Stronger structures, higher aesthetic value

The improved dimensional accuracy, repeatability, and surface quality directly enhance the structural stability and visual appearance of Pfiffer Bútor's three-layer doors – a decisive factor for high-end furniture and interior design projects. With the DSB Singlehead NG XM, Pfiffer Bútor demonstrates how WINTERSTEIGER's thin-cut technology enables premium wood processors to combine outstanding quality, material efficiency, and long-term competitiveness.
