Precision CNC Stair Stringer Cutting with the Apollo ATC Router
If you manufacture timber staircases, you already know how critical precision, repeatability, and clean cuts are for every stringer you produce. In this demo video below, we showcase the Apollo ATC CNC Router cutting a stair stringer from 18mm plywood — a perfect real-world example of the machine’s capabilities in joinery and staircase fabrication.
Note: The dust hood was lifted for better visual demonstration during filming. In normal operation, the integrated dust extraction system keeps the workspace clean and safe.
Why the Apollo ATC Router Stands Out
Whether you run a busy joinery shop or are expanding into CNC for stair production, the Apollo ATC offers a compelling combination of performance and practicality:
-
Automatic Tool Change (ATC): Rapid switching between tools for efficient multi-step operations.
-
High Precision: Consistently tight tolerances ensure stringers fit perfectly every time.
-
Optimised Toolpaths: Intelligent routing paths reduce cycle times and material waste.
-
Heavy-Duty Build: Robust frame and vacuum bed ideal for large plywood sheets and solid timber.
-
UK-Based Support: Ongoing training, servicing, and support from a trusted local team.
Material Used: 18mm Plywood
This demo uses 18mm structural plywood, a common choice for staircase stringers in residential and commercial projects. The clean edges and minimal tear-out demonstrate how well the Apollo handles this material — even with the dust hood removed.
Built for Joinery, Ideal for Growth
The Apollo ATC is already used by stair manufacturers, bespoke furniture makers, and shopfitters across the UK and Ireland. If you’re looking to:
-
Scale up production without sacrificing accuracy
-
Move away from manual templates and repetitive jigs
-
Improve consistency across stair parts
…then it’s time to take a closer look at how the Apollo ATC can transform your workflow.
