Professional Woodworking Edge Banding Machine

The Professional Woodworking Edge Banding Machine used by furniture manufacturers mainly include manual straight curve edge banding machines and automatic linear edge banding machines. The manual edge banding machine has a simple structure, and its installation, use and maintenance are relatively easy; while the fully automatic Due to the complex structure, high manufacturing precision, and high price of the linear edge banding machine, one or the other problems are prone to occur during use. Therefore, installing and debugging a fully automatic linear edge banding machine is to keep it in a stable working condition for a long time And an important guarantee for the completion of high-quality edge banding operations.

Types of Professional Woodworking Edge Banding Machine

There are different types of edge banding machines available for purchase. The manual type is the cheapest, but you will need to spend a lot more time on it than with an electric one.

The first type is a stationary edge bander, which means that it doesn’t move as you work on the project. These do not come with feed belts and rollers to automatically advance materials into place for you. However, they are cheaper than other types of devices available in the market today. Manual banding machines can be used by those who need to do small projects or just for your personal use.

The second type is the hand-operated edge bander which comes with a clamping system and all other features like feed belts, trimming knives, etc. This can be used to complete a variety of woodworking projects and is quite affordable compared to other types of tools available in the market today. The third type is an automatic bander with feeders, rollers, etc., just like any stationary machine that automatically does everything for you without any manual intervention.

The final type is a benchtop bander which can be used by both professional and beginner woodworkers. This machine is very easy to use; even beginners can get the best results when using this edge banding machine for their project.

Working steps of straight edge banding machine

(1) Pre-milling: Pre-milling is to prevent the edge of the workpiece is not smooth enough for gluing the edge. If the board has slight chips or extra glue on the edge of the resealed board, it can be milled off according to the quality of the product, I mm a time can be milled at most.

(2) Spray anti-glue coating agent: anti-glue coating agent is also called separating agent. Spray it on the upper and lower ends of the plate edge before gluing, to prevent the glue from sticking to the surface of the plate during sealing. Also has the function of cleaning.

(3) Preheating of the plate: For the edge sealing process, the temperature is an important factor, and the temperature of the environment, the workpiece, and the hot melt glue should be controlled very well. The bonding temperature of EVA hot melt glue is usually around 150 °C. If the workpiece temperature is too low, the temperature of the hot melt glue will decrease rapidly after coating, which will affect the bonding strength of the edge band. It is therefore necessary to preheat the plate, especially in winter. Infrared illumination is generally used to achieve the effect of preheating.

(4) Pressure sealing and cutting: After the board is preheated, the glue is applied to the edge by the glue coating device, and the pressure roller sends the edge strip to the edge of the plate, and then automatically cuts off.

(5) Front and rear cutting and roughing up and down: the plate is sent to the front and rear cutting device through the conveyor belt. For the cabinet, partition and other parts of the furniture, the thin edge banding (usually 0.4mm) is used for roughing up and down. The knife can directly process the edge band to the processing amount, eliminating the need for upper and lower finishing; the furniture door panel, panel and other components are mostly thick edge banding (usually 3mm), the edge has 2 or 3mm round corners, up and down must be refined after roughing.

(6) Scratch repair and polishing: Scratch repair is to use the scraper device to remove the milling marks on the edge of the edge band to make it more fused with the face of the plate. Finally, the plate removes residual hot melt glue and separating agent through the polishing unit.
