OPTIONS

RAPIDO scoring system
The scorer ensures chip-free undersides when working with laminated panels. The RAPIDO system makes adjusting the cutting width straightforward and enables this step to be completed in no more than three minutes. This can save you up to 10 minutes as compared with conventional scorer systems because it does away with the tedious process of mounting two-part scorer blades with spacer disks entirely. Adjustment is continuous and precise, so the RAPIDO can be fine-tuned to match the cutting width of any main blade. Range: 3 – 3,8 mm.

DUPLEX double-sided mitre fence
DUPLEX fences make it possible to make mitre cuts at any angle between 0 and 90° with speed and precision. At 45° a mitre cut can be made on both sides of the workpiece without moving the fence. Dimensions are set using a magnifier, a measuring scale and a length compensation scale for frequently recur-ring angles.

Big extraction hood
The optional big extraction hood ensures even more work safety and better handling of angle cuts. The hood can be adjusted to the respective material thickness steplessly and self-locking. The scope of delivery includes a narrow hood for 90° cuts and a wide hood for mitre cuts. Exhaust connection: 80 mm

Pre-milling for Edgebanders.

Machinery Solutions

More often today you are finding features on smaller edge banders that initially were exclusive to larger, higher production machines. One of those features is pre-milling. Pre-milling consists of two counter-rotating cutterheads which are designed to mill the edge of the panel prior to applying the edge banding material.

Proper edgebander maintenance.

Edgebanders are one of the more complex machines in operation in most cabinet and millwork shops. The maintenance however is imperative to the performance and reliability of the machine. Without it you can experience a poor edge quality which will result in hand finishing and defects and worst of all significant down time and expense […]
