How much does the HOLZ-HER EVOLUTION 7405 PinJet cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the HOLZ-HER EVOLUTION 7405 PinJet that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The HOLZ-HER EVOLUTION 7405 PinJet combines the four-edge formatting of the EVOLUTION 7405 with fully automatic doweling. A panel can be routed to size on all four edges, drilled, and have its dowels driven before it leaves the 3,200 mm (126.0 in) machine.
PinJet is a dowel insertion unit fed from reservoirs inside the machine. In the controller the operator selects “Insert dowel”; the machine then drills, pretreats the hole and inserts the dowel without further input. Pretreatment means moistening the drilled hole through a process-controlled mist nozzle, for which there is a central water connection. Precoated dowels are the normal case, and the “Insert dowel dry” setting lets uncoated dowels be used too. Dowel diameter is 8 mm.
Which EVOLUTION to pick comes down to the joint. The EVOLUTION 7405 Connect is fitted out for connector pockets and has a 6-tool pick-up changer as standard. On this model the table lists a linear changer for 6 tools as an option, alongside the 10.3 kW (13.8 hp) HSK spindle with its 1,000 to 24,000 rpm range. The shorter EVOLUTION 7402 PinJet offers the same doweling unit with 2,500 mm (98.4 in) in X.
Everything else follows the EVOLUTION 7405 table: 920 mm (36.2 in) in Y, a run-in linear guide that is height adjustable for 4-sided edge routing and profiling, a 15-spindle drilling head with sawing unit in X, and a vector speed of 68 m/min. Overall length is 3,675 mm (144.7 in) and weight 2,500 kg (5,511 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Formats four edges, drills and inserts dowels in one machine
- The controller runs drilling, hole pretreatment and dowel insertion as a single selected function
- The “Insert dowel dry” setting allows uncoated as well as precoated dowels
- 3,200 mm (126.0 in) X dimension with a height-adjustable run-in linear guide
- A sensor monitors the insertion unit
Limitations
- The linear changer for 6 tools is an option on this variant
- Dowels are inserted into 8 mm holes only
- A water supply has to be brought to the machine for the mist nozzle
- Overall length is 3,675 mm (144.7 in), and panels need clear space at both ends on top of that

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It adds the PinJet dowel insertion unit. The technical data table is otherwise the same: 3,200 mm (126.0 in) by 920 mm (36.2 in) of edge routing dimension, a 10.3 kW (13.8 hp) HSK spindle, a 15-spindle drilling head, 3,675 mm (144.7 in) overall length and 2,500 kg (5,511 lb).
02
In the +/- X direction, from both sides. The drilling unit inserts dowels of 8 mm diameter into predrilled 8 mm holes. HOLZ-HER gives the dowel length as 30 - 40 mm, and the built-in reservoirs hold approximately 300 to 400 pieces depending on that length.
03
Because the hole is moistened before the dowel goes in. A process-controlled mist nozzle wets the drilled hole, which is the pretreatment for precoated dowels. With the “Insert dowel dry” setting, uncoated dowels can be used as well as precoated ones.
04
That depends on how the furniture is joined. The EVOLUTION 7405 PinJet drives dowels automatically. The EVOLUTION 7405 Connect comes with a 6-tool pick-up changer and Lamello tool sets for connector pockets, and does not insert dowels. Both share the 3,200 mm (126.0 in) frame and the 4-sided edge routing.
