6 PanelMax® | Applications PanelMax® Applications Radius Cuts Use engineered relief cuts to form smooth concave or convex shapes for arches, curved walls, or barrel ceilings. PanelMax enables consistent curvature and faster assembly compared to traditional hand-cut methods. Recessed Boxes Quickly fabricate recessed boxes, niches, and wall cavities with precise, repeatable dimensions, eliminating the need for manual measuring, hand cutting, and extensive on-site correction. Soffits Easily create simple or multi- step soffits and recessed ceiling features with accuracy and repeatability. Many designs can be assembled without drywall tape, multiple compound coats, or corner beads. Achieve unmatched productivity on long, continuous soffit runs. Window Returns Produce smooth, clean window returns with integrated jambs and sills, delivering a gap-free finish that eliminates the need for wood trim, vinyl or metal beads, L-trim, or tear-away profiles. Improve speed, appearance, and installation consistency. Bulkhead Enclosures Easily produce precise cutouts for penetrations, including pipes, ducts, and structural elements, ensuring accurate alignment with minimal material waste. PanelMax fabrication improves consistency and reduces on-site correction time. Castle Cuts Create accurate, factory-quality edge profiles for head-of-wall applications, including conditions joining fluted steel deck. Improve installation speed and reduce finishing time through repeatable, high-precision cuts. Columns Efficiently fabricate drywall column wraps in a wide range of shapes, including round, fluted, rectangular, hexagonal, and other custom geometries. PanelMax milling delivers consistent edges and tight joints for clean installations. Corners Produce true inside and outside corners without embedding drywall tape, joint compound, or corner beads. Milled corners assemble cleanly and minimize finishing supporting higher productivity and improved visual quality. Decorative Cutouts Create decorative drywall forms without relying on specialty beads such as reveals, J-beads, L-beads, or bullnose beads. Achieve clean edges, shadow lines, rounded corners, and architectural features, including coves, niches, and millwork-like details, more affordably and with exceptional precision. This selection highlights a range of common PanelMax applications. The system is capable of much more, supporting advanced details such as knife-edge corners, light coves, moldings, reinforced corners, and a wide variety of additional architectural and prefabricated assemblies.
