Product Description
The CMT334-4595 Universal Hinge Boring Head is a precision-engineered, three-spindle boring head designed for use with 45/9.5mm Blum hinge patterns on CNC boring machines and point-to-point machines. Compatible with Blum, Salice, Hafele, and Hettich hinges, this versatile head consolidates the cup hole and dowel hole boring operations into a single, repeatable pass - saving time and ensuring consistent placement across production runs in cabinet and furniture manufacturing.
Key Features
- Three-spindle design for Blum 45/9.5mm hinge pattern - bores the 35mm cup hole and two 8mm dowel holes simultaneously, reducing machine cycles and increasing production throughput.
- Compatible with Blum, Salice, Hafele, and Hettich hinges - a single universal head supports multiple major hinge brands, reducing tooling costs and changeover time in mixed-production environments.
- Designed for CNC boring and point-to-point machines - integrates directly with automated boring equipment for precise, repeatable hinge pocket placement on hardwood, softwood, plywood, and MDF panels.
- CMT334 universal platform - the innovative head architecture is built to accommodate the spacing requirements of industry-standard hinge hardware, making it a flexible solution for professional cabinet shops and millwork operations.
Why This Product
- Shops running Blum hinges on CNC or point-to-point equipment get a dedicated boring head engineered specifically for the 45/9.5mm Blum hinge spacing pattern, eliminating manual layout and reducing the chance of mis-bored holes.
- The universal compatibility with Blum, Salice, Hafele, and Hettich hinge systems means one head can serve multiple hinge brands, giving production shops flexibility without maintaining a large inventory of dedicated tooling.
- The three-spindle configuration completes the full hinge bore - cup hole and both dowel holes - in a single operation on automated boring equipment, directly reducing cycle time per door or panel.
- Precision machining on the CMT334 platform ensures accurate, consistent hole placement across large panel runs, which is critical for repeatable door alignment and hinge function in cabinetry production.

Frequently Asked Questions
What hinge brands is the CMT334-4595 compatible with?
This hinge boring head is compatible with Blum, Salice, Hafele, and Hettich hinges, making it a universal option for shops that work with multiple major hinge brands.
What machines can this boring head be used with?
The CMT334-4595 is designed for use on boring machines and point-to-point machines. It is not intended for hand drills or bench drill presses.
Does the CMT334-4595 come with boring bits included?
No - bits are not included. You will need to order the 35mm boring bit (393.350.11) and the 8mm dowel drill in left-hand configuration (393.080.12) separately to complete the setup.
How many spindles does this boring head have, and why does it matter?
The CMT334-4595 uses three spindles, which allows it to bore the 35mm cup hole and two 8mm dowel holes in a single pass on the machine. This simultaneous boring reduces cycle time and ensures accurate hole spacing consistent with the 45/9.5mm Blum hinge pattern.
