The time-saving joining system with form-locking anchoring.
The P-System, Lamello's continuously evolving wood connector innovation, is lauded by building professionals worldwide as a revolutionary connecting solution that creates fast, permanent connections in a variety of building materials, including solid wood, plywood, MDF, particleboard, plastics, solid surfaces, and more.
Machined by the Zeta P2 profile biscuit joiner, Zeta P2 cordless, and CNC router systems, the P-System is best recognized for fabricating strong, precise, invisible, fast connections for various on and off-site application needs.
P-System Biscuit Joiners
P-System Installation
The Lamello Zeta P2 and Zeta P2 cordless biscuit joiners are Swiss-crafted for superior quality and precision, and their integrated vertical mechanical drive makes them unlike any other biscuit joiner available.
As the centerpiece of the Lamello P-System, the Zeta P2 makes machining grooves for connectors fast and easy, even at varying installation depths, using a quick-turn dial.
With its arsenal of connectors, the Zeta P2 makes connections at nearly all angles, at the shop or on the job site, easy and exact.

Precision hands-free wood shaping through rapid CNC.
P-System CNC is the precision P-System groove fabrication solution, offering unrivaled uniformity and superior high-speed production through integrated automation and rapid CNC machining. Delivering efficient continuous cuts en masse across material sheets, the P-System CNC seamlessly accommodates a broad range of Lamello connectors and ensures better accuracy, consistency, and faster error-free production speeds.
Unlike P-System hand-tooling with the Zeta P2, the P-System CNC streamlines woodworking and building projects for small and large-scale operations with full automation. It seamlessly integrates with advanced CNC tooling and software to harness digital labor and enhance quality and productivity across every cycle.
The original for efficient, intuitive and precise joints.
Modern Lamello systems are the latest evolution of the original, innovative biscuit joining application invented in 1955.
Featuring our timeless flagship biscuit joiners, the Lamello Original, along with the original beechwood biscuits, this system maintains the strict care, precision, and functionality of their original design, ensuring wood connections and ease of use that other off-brand imitators cannot match.
Specially fabricated to save time and optimize joining power, this classic wood joinery solution locks wood in place inside pre-made slots at precision angles, first time, every time, and guarantees a nearly indestructible hold that stands the test of time.

"It saves so much time, which is huge. This isn't an inexpensive tool, but I guarantee you it will pay for itself if you use it. When I first saw it, I thought, "What wizardry is this?" Whoever thought to have the blade dither like that is up there with the guy who invented zip ties."

Our CNC-integrated connection system.
Lamello Cabineo is a robust CNC-integrated connection system boasting superior time-savings and strength for commercial case goods, cabinets, closets, kitchen units, bookshelves, store fixtures, and more.
Compared with the standard cam and dowel fitting, Cabineo offers more efficient production, faster installation, and a higher clamping force (up to 200 lbs.) while also allowing for mixed-media connections like wood-to-metal joints and phenolic resin.
With three connector varieties in the Cabineo family, there is always a right choice for your application. Cabineo offers optimal efficiency and exceptionally strong connections that can be executed by any member of your team.
