Dominion produces panel saws designed for joinery and sheet material processing operations that need reliable, accurate cutting of board materials in a production environment. Their CP series panel saws offer a practical specification for workshops cutting MDF, plywood, melamine board, and similar sheet goods on a daily basis. IWM works with Dominion to give customers access to dependable panel sawing equipment at a specification that suits the throughput demands of a working British joinery or shopfitting business.
- Chosen By List:
- List Item:
Joinery shops processing sheet goods and solid timber who need consistent, accurate rip and cross-cuts day to day
- List Item:
Small to mid-size workshops where a 2600 mm sliding table covers the majority of panel sizes they work with
- List Item:
Businesses replacing an ageing panelsaw and looking for a straightforward cast-iron machine with separate scoring — without over-specifying
- This Product List:
- List Item:
You need a solid, cast-iron sliding table panelsaw for day-to-day sheet and timber processing and do not require CNC or electronic fence positioning
- List Item:
Your typical panel sizes fall within a 2600 mm sliding table and a 1250 mm rip capacity — this machine covers the vast majority of joinery workshop work
- List Item:
You want independent scoring as standard without moving to a significantly larger or more complex machine
- List Item:
Budget and simplicity of operation are priorities and your volume does not justify a more automated format saw
- Alternate List:
- List Item:
You regularly process panels beyond 2600 mm or need a longer sliding table — the Robland FZ3100 or Casolin Astra 500 3-axis offer greater capacity
- List Item:
Your workflow would benefit from electronic rip fence positioning and digital readout — the Casolin Astra SE400 NT with electronic R/F and scoring is worth discussing
- List Item:
You need a 3-axis or automated beam-saw style operation for higher-volume optimised cutting — the Casolin Astra 500 3-axis is the more appropriate specification
- List Item:
You are weighing up a mid-range alternative with a comparable footprint — the Robland NXZ or Robland Z500 M may be worth comparing directly with the CP-16M

A straightforward, cast-iron sliding table panelsaw built for day-to-day sheet and timber processing. Accurate rip and cross-cuts, independent scoring as standard, and no unnecessary complexity.
- Chosen By List:
- List Item:
Joinery shops and cabinet makers needing to break down full or oversized sheet materials cleanly and consistently
- List Item:
Workshops where a scoring blade is essential to avoid breakout on veneered or melamine-faced boards
- List Item:
Businesses stepping up from a lighter bench-top or contractor saw to a floor-standing machine with genuine industrial capacity
- This Product List:
- List Item:
You need to crosscut full 2440 mm sheets and want the reassurance of a 3200 mm sliding table without moving to a larger footprint machine
- List Item:
Clean cuts on veneered or melamine-faced board are a regular requirement — the independent scoring unit handles this without a separate setup step
- List Item:
You want a cast-iron table construction at a mid-range price point rather than paying for features your volume does not justify
- Alternate List:
- List Item:
You need a longer rip capacity or a larger crosscut stroke — the Casolin Astra 500 or Robland Z500 M may offer more working envelope for larger panel formats
- List Item:
Your production volume demands faster, programmable fence positioning — the Casolin Astra SE400 NT with electronic rip fence and scoring is worth discussing for higher-throughput environments
