Product Description Applications Advantages Technical Data Accessories

MAGAform 3000 is a revolutionary system that makes creating intricate shapes and structures from drywall much more affordable. Projects that require a lot of manual cutting or that have complex curves have always been cumbersome and time-consuming for builders. Now even the most challenging structures can be completed much more cost effectively, requiring much less finishing time and materials.

MAGAform 3000 – is a portable board milling machine designed for milling many building materials from gypsum to cement board up to 54 X 120 inch sizes. The Magaform 3000 is easy to operate with pneumatic machine head controls, dust free milling and fast prime and glue-up fabrication.

MAGAform is clean, fast, cost-effective – especially in dry wall construction:

Gypsum boards
MDF bords
Plastic
Wood
Cement board
Aluminum

MAGAform 3000 is a revolutionary tool for the drywall industry particularly in the following applications.
Wall Construction Save up to 20 – 70% compared to traditional finishing methods Flexible connection of noise insulation Wall connections Expansion joints Curves Round and segmental arches Timber installation Fanlight walls Sliding door linings Room corners (also in round form) Alcoves and recesses Wall openings & passages Lamellar cut-outs (e.g. lowered base)
Stencil Cut-outs Save up to 45-60% compared to traditional finishing methods Canted columns plus basement Pilaster and fluting, lamellar cut-outs (up to 3 x 12.5 mm resp. 40 mm in total)
Duct Linings Save up to 70-80% compared to traditional finishing methods Duct linings Ventilation duct – angular or round Storage areas and shelves
Ceiling Construction Save up to 35 – 70% compared to traditional finishing methods Expansion joints Ceiling connection Perforated ceilings, cutting of perforated boards, ceiling blinds and grading Indirect lighting Canvas ceilings Light bars – mock coverings Inspection flap
Columns and Lamellar Cut-outs Save up to 55 – 70% compared to traditional finishing methods Canted columns plus basement Pilaster and fluting, lamellar cut-outs (up to 3 x 12.5 mm resp. 40 mm in total)
90 Degree Corners The MAGAform 3000 routing table produces clean 90 degree and off angle corners that require no additional finishing. The MAGAform system also includes metal bead inserts if additional corner strength is needed.

MAGAform 3000 is a paradigm shift in the way you can think about drywall.

It used to be drywall was a covering for structural components but with MAGAform it has become an art from. MAGAform’s precision corners substantially reduce the need for finishing with mud and tape reducing installation time by more than 75% in most cases.
