Side note: I've easily made many thousands of raised panel doors in my early life as a cabinet maker for a custom kitchen business.

When I worked at a cabinet shop, I used 3 big 3/4" spindle shapers and carbide-topped cutters to make raised panel doors. The panel cutter was huge, maybe 6" diameter 3-wing.
Later in my own home business workshop, I made occasional raised panel doors with a smaller 1/2" spindle shaper and carbide-tipped cutters for the stiles and rails, and just cut the panels vertically on my (nice) Unisaw table saw.
To help with that, I made a nice tall smooth fence and set the blade angle to 13 degrees, and adjusted the panel cut so there was a pretty good fit in rail slots. Not as ideal as a flat tongue for expansion and contraction, but unless panels are wide it's not a big deal. Doors came out looking good. I did make a second table saw cut all around on the panels, face down, 1/16" deep to square up the angled panel edge. You might could try something similar if your table saw is up for it, dunno.
