A profile that needs drilled holes, tapped threads, and a finished cutoff can otherwise move through several machines before it becomes a completed part. The PMI-Auto DTS combines those operations into one automated production system, processing aluminum profiles through drilling and tapping before cutting them to the programmed length. Integrating these steps reduces intermediate handling and makes the machine particularly valuable for recurring components that require machined features and threaded holes before final cutoff.
PMI-Auto DTS | Fully Automatic Drilling, Tapping, and Sawing Machine Features:
The PMI-Auto DTS is an automatic aluminum profile processing machine designed to complete multiple operations as material moves through production. Instead of cutting blanks first and routing them to separate equipment for secondary work, drilling, tapping, and final cutoff can be coordinated within the same system. This reduces transfers between machines while keeping the required operations tied to the programmed part.
Its CNC drilling and tapping machine capability distinguishes the DTS from profile systems limited to drilling and sawing. Holes that require threads can be tapped within the automated sequence, eliminating a separate downstream operation for suitable components. This is especially useful for repeat parts that require mounting points, fastener locations, or other threaded features at defined positions along the profile.
The integrated extrusion cutoff system connects secondary machining with final part length. After the programmed drilling and tapping operations are completed, sawing becomes part of the same production workflow rather than an independent process. For recurring aluminum components, this creates a more direct path from raw profile stock to a cut part with its required holes and threads already produced.

The PMI-Auto DTS | Fully Automatic Drilling, Tapping, and Sawing Machine addresses finished-length parts with threaded holes as a fully automatic drilling, tapping, and sawing system for profiles. Machine selection centers on whether its work envelope and operating method match the recurring part family.
The Auto DTS integrates drilling, tapping, and cutoff operations. Automated indexing keeps hole, thread, and finished-length data tied to the same programmed part. Selection should be based on the recurring job mix, including section shape, material, datum strategy, finished length, accuracy, production volume, workholding, and downstream handling.
Its process range covers:
The Auto DTS integrates drilling, tapping, and cutoff operations. Automated indexing keeps hole, thread, and finished-length data tied to the same programmed part.
The PMI-Auto DTS | Fully Automatic Drilling, Tapping, and Sawing Machine locates programmed features from a defined work offset rather than manual layout marks.
Workholding positions must secure the profile while leaving every required spindle or drill approach clear.
Programs retain the coordinates and process sequence for established part families.
The line drills holes, taps required threads, and saws the profile to finished length.
The job must include thread size, pitch, tap selection, spindle parameters, lubrication, and hole-depth requirements in addition to drilling and cutoff data.
The available tooling and control determine the sequence, but the program can coordinate drilling and tapping positions for the part family.
Hole size, alignment, chip evacuation, lubrication, tap condition, depth, and material movement must remain consistent.
Repeat profiles requiring finished holes, threads, and cutoff length gain the most from combining all three operations.
