Copy Router Machine Price in India: Manual vs Pneumatic

The copy router machine price in India starts from ₹35,000 + GST for a manual machine and ₹55,000 + GST for a pneumatic one. Both are made by Mechnovate in Ahmedabad and sold factory-direct with a GST invoice, at the same price anywhere in India. The right choice depends on how many windows you make each day and whether you already have a compressor.

This guide explains what each machine does, what you get at each price, and how to decide. You can see the full range on our copy router machines page.

Copy Router Machine Price in India: The Short Answer

Machine	Series	Clamping	Compressor needed	Price
Manual copy router	MEMCR	Screw clamping	No	From ₹35,000 + GST
Pneumatic copy router	MEPCR	Pneumatic clamping	Yes	From ₹55,000 + GST

Prices are ex-factory Ahmedabad. Delivery is same day within Ahmedabad and typically 1–5 days to other cities. Every machine carries a 6-month warranty.

What a Copy Router Does

A copy router mills the pockets and slots in an aluminium or uPVC window profile using a template. You place the profile in the machine, follow the template, and the router cuts the same shape every time. Typical jobs include:

• Lock pockets
• Handle slots
• Drainage slots
• Hardware recesses

Doing these by hand with a drill and file is slow and uneven. A copy router gives repeatable, clean cuts, which means hardware fits properly and fewer frames come back for rework.

Manual Copy Router (MEMCR Series): From ₹35,000 + GST

The manual copy router is the entry point for a new or small workshop. The profile is held with screw clamping, so there is no compressor requirement. It runs on power alone, which keeps the setup cost low.

It suits you if:

• You are starting a window fabrication workshop on a limited budget
• Your daily production is modest
• You do not have, or do not want to buy, a compressor yet

Screw clamping takes a few seconds longer per profile than pneumatic clamping. For a small workshop that difference is hardly noticeable.

Pneumatic Copy Router (MEPCR Series): From ₹55,000 + GST

The pneumatic copy router holds the profile with pneumatic clamps, released and tightened at the press of a control. This saves time on every piece and holds the profile consistently. An optional spray system is available.

It suits you if:

• You make windows and doors every day in larger numbers
• You already run a compressor for a cutting or punching machine
• Several operators share the machine and you want consistent clamping

Manual vs Pneumatic: Side-by-Side

Factor	Manual (MEMCR)	Pneumatic (MEPCR)
Starting price	₹35,000 + GST	₹55,000 + GST
Clamping	Screw	Pneumatic
Compressor	Not needed	Needed
Optional spray system	No	Yes
Best for	Small and starting workshops	Daily, higher-volume production

Router Motor Options

Both types use a router motor in the 900 W to 1860 W range. You can choose from Bosch, Dong Cheng and Stanley options. A higher-wattage motor handles heavier, thicker profiles and long runs with less strain, while a lower-wattage motor is enough for lighter work. Mention your profile types when you ask for a quotation, and we will suggest a suitable motor.

What Changes the Final Price

The starting prices cover the standard machine. Your final quotation depends on:

1. Manual or pneumatic — the biggest difference, about ₹20,000 at the starting price
2. Motor choice — brand and wattage within the 900 W–1860 W range
3. Optional spray system — available on the pneumatic machine
4. Compressor — if you choose pneumatic and have no compressor, include one in your budget
5. Delivery and installation — on-site installation and operator training are available on request

How to Choose Between the Two

Start with your daily output. If you finish only a handful of windows a day, the time saved by pneumatic clamping adds up slowly, and the extra ₹20,000 may be better spent on a second blade or a punching machine. If you run a steady production line with several operators, the faster and more consistent clamping of the pneumatic machine pays back through saved minutes on every profile.

Next, look at your utilities. A workshop that already has a compressor for pneumatic cutting or punching can add a pneumatic router at no extra air-supply cost. A workshop without one should weigh the compressor cost before choosing pneumatic.

Finally, think about growth. Many owners begin with a manual copy router and add a pneumatic one when orders increase, keeping the first machine as a backup. Either path works, and our team can help you plan it.

Is It Worth Buying Factory-Direct?

Buying from the manufacturer means there is no dealer margin in the price. You also get a GST invoice, direct technical support from the people who build the machine, and spare parts dispatched from Ahmedabad. The price is the same across India, so a workshop far from Gujarat pays no extra for the machine itself.

Build Your Workshop Around the Router

A copy router is one part of a fabrication line. Most workshops pair it with a cutting machine and a punching machine. Our 45°/90° aluminium cutting machine handles mitre and straight cuts, and our punching machines prepare profiles for hardware. If you are planning a full set-up, the workshop setup guide lists what to buy first. You can also browse our complete window machinery range.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the price of a copy router machine in India?

Mechnovate copy router machines start from ₹35,000 + GST for the manual MEMCR series and from ₹55,000 + GST for the pneumatic MEPCR series. The final price depends on the motor, options and delivery.

Which is better for a small workshop, manual or pneumatic?

A manual copy router is usually enough for a small or new workshop. It costs less and needs no compressor. Choose pneumatic when your daily volume grows or you already have compressed air.

Does the copy router need a compressor?

The manual machine does not. The pneumatic machine uses pneumatic clamping and needs a compressor.

What jobs can a copy router do?

It mills lock pockets, handle slots, drainage slots and hardware recesses in aluminium and uPVC window profiles, using a template for repeatable results.

Is the price the same everywhere in India, and what warranty is included?

Yes, the machine price is the same across India, with a GST invoice. Every machine has a 6-month warranty, and installation and operator training are available on request.
