Furnitureplan Boosts Production Precision with New Biesse Selco SK3 Panel Saw
Furnitureplan is investing in the future of custom furniture with the addition of a new Biesse Selco SK3 panelsaw, bringing even greater accuracy, speed, and sustainability to our manufacturing process.
Specially designed for smaller production runs, the SK3 is the ideal fit for Furnitureplan’s bespoke approach.
Whether we are crafting boardroom tables, reception desks or fitted library shelving, this new addition helps us produce each piece with exceptional detail and minimal waste.
“This investment is part of our ongoing commitment to quality and customer service,” says Andy Baldwin, Group Production Director at Furnitureplan.
“The Selco SK3 helps us deliver precision-crafted furniture faster, more efficiently, and with greater consistency—while making smarter use of materials.”
Why This Matters to Our Customers
The Biesse Selco SK3 uses built-in optimisation software to plan the most efficient way to cut each panel. That
means less material waste, shorter lead times, and cleaner, more accurate results, even on sensitive finishes or
recycled boards.
It also includes features that make handling materials easier and safer, such as airtables to glide panels into position and adjustable pressure for delicate surfaces.
“It is a smarter, more sustainable way of working,” adds Andy.
“Our customers are already seeing the benefits in quicker turnarounds and beautifully finished pieces that fit perfectly the first time.”
Built-In Support, Minimal Downtime
The SK3 also connects to Biesse’s SOPHIA system, a digital support platform that allows real-time diagnostics and easy access to spare parts. This means fewer interruptions on the factory floor and smoother delivery schedules for customers.
