Decorative edgebanding is an automatic
process for board finishing where it is
covered board edges -one or two paralel
sides- with bands (strips) or profiles of
melamine, PVC or wooden veneer on
chipboards or MDF.
The process can be done in automatic
machines where previously the edge is
polished -to assure its uniformity-, the
adhesive is applied to the board edge
-EVA or PUR type- and then the surplus is
removed mechanizing it in straight or bevel
form according to band width.
There are also small machines to
edgebanding kitchen furniture doors or room
clothes-press with finishing in four edges.
There are multiple types of finishing with
a great range of width -up to 100mm- and
thickness -normally up to 3mm-.
Adjustable edge banding slot guns
substitute traditional glue rollers for edge
banding gluing. Its design allows to work
with the most common adhesives, E.V.A.,
polyolefine or P.U.R. in a wide range of
viscosities and variable application width
up to 60 or 100 mm in standard models
due to its high flexibility and cleaness.
The gun provides an accurate and uniform
application in all edge surface.
Selectable direction of application
Using the same gun parts you can easily
select the direction of the application (right
or left) to apply on both sides of the board
simultaneously.
Installation
The gun-brackets assembly has a three
dimensions adjustment X-Y-Z in a quick
mode to guarantee a perfect contact
between gun and the panel edge.
It also gives a simple contact force
regulation in installation and start up tasks.
Adjustments
Application width adjustment is made
handly by turning a hand wheel with a scale
for precise readout of the coating width.
That system permits an easy selection of
the coating width, making the changes fast
and repeatible for short working series of
different panel thickness.
