\nThe equipment of the \u201cEdgeteq S-300<\/strong>\u201d model \u201c1440 E<\/strong>\u201d, offers competitive advantages for both woodworking shops and small- and medium-sized businesses \u2014 especially in the case of frequently changing edge thicknesses.
\nThe two-profile technology\u2014here with the profiles \u201cR1\u201d and \u201cR2\u201d\u2014on the single-motor \u201cFF6210\u201d profile trimming unit brings more flexibility to processing thanks to the fast, precise change by touch via the control system. Setup times and the machine length are shortened, thereby increasing cost efficiency.
\nAt the latest Ligna, the Edgeteq S-300 was equipped with a new ergonomic air cushion table at the machine infeed and outfeed. The ergonomic machine infeed and outfeed ensure safe and convenient workpiece feed and removal.
\nThe variable feed speed is 8\u201314 m\/min. The machine is equipped with a joint trimming unit, the \u201cQa65n\u201d universal application unit for the optional processing of Eva or Pur hot-melt glue and the edge magazine for strips and rolls of material. Post-processing takes place using the snipping unit, the multi-level trimming unit and the single-motor profile trimming unit. The multi-level profile scraper, the glue scraper and the buffing unit ensure the perfect finish.<\/p>\n
\nSharp and blunt-angled parts, workpieces with longitudinal grooves or with hinge holes, workpiece thicknesses from 8\u201360 mm, sensitive surfaces and much more can all be processed optimally using the \u201cEdgeteq S-380\u201d model \u201c1672 E\u201d at a feed speed of 8\u201320 m\/min.
\nFor perfect glue joints, this machine is equipped with the universal \u201cQa65n\u201d application unit and the universal melting unit (2.5\u20134 kg\/h), which can be used for production with Pur or Eva (ethylene vinyl acetate).
\nThe change of glue type in the universal melting unit can be performed quickly and easily with two special interchangeable tanks for Pur cartridges or Eva granulate.<\/p>\n
\nBefore gluing, the joint trimming unit creates the basis for a precise workpiece edge. Post-processing is carried out with the \u201cHl70<\/strong>\u201d two-motor snipping unit, the \u201cMs40<\/strong>\u201d multi-level trimming unit, the \u201cMf60<\/strong>\u201d multifunction profile trimming unit, the \u201cMz40<\/strong>\u201d multi-level profile scraper unit and the finishing units of the glue joint scraper, cleaning agent sprayer and buffing unit.
\nThe multifunction profile trimming unit with two motors and the \u201cFlexTrim<\/strong>\u201d multi-radius tool offers precise adjustment options for perfect corner processing. The structural shelf function also allows profile trimming of edges on raw panel corners.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.xylon.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Homag-3.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nThe units are controlled intuitively, and the parameters are entered using PowerTouch on the 24-inch multitouch monitor.
\nA new air cushion table concept including sliding carriages was also presented (also for the \u201cEdgeteq S-500\u201d). The ergonomic machine infeed ensures a safe and right-angled workpiece feed. For processing edge overhangs and copying corners, the \u201cMf60\u201d multifunction trimming unit features a stepping motor for automatically adjusting to different edge thicknesses.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cEdgeteq S-500<\/strong>\u201d was designed by Homag with flexibility in mind. With a feed speed of 16\u201325 m\/min, it is highly automated and equipped with state-of-the-art software via \u201cWoodCommander 5<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n
\n<\/em>The magazine ensures that six different edges are automatically fed in. The servo edge feed reduces edge waste<\/strong>. The edge thickness compensation, for compensating for the tolerances of the edge material, is integrated into the edge data management.<\/p>\n
\nPost-processing begins with the automated \u201cPk25\u201d snipping unit and the \u201cBf10\u201d pre-trimming unit. On the \u201cMf21\u201d multi-trimming unit, the \u201cFk30\u201d profile trimming unit and the \u201cMn21\u201d multi-scraper, three-profile technology can be used to automatically change between three profiles plus chamfer. In addition to short setup times, this achieves reproducible quality at the highest level. Thanks to the \u201cWoodWop\u201d package for the profile trimming unit, post-processing of prefabricated workpieces with post-forming and soft-forming profiles is also possible without any difficulty.<\/p>\n
\nThe new ergonomic air cushion table at the machine infeed and outfeed ensures safe and convenient workpiece feed and removal. The sliding carriage for small parts ensures that even construction elements and small parts can be processed easily.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.xylon.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Homag-4.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\n\u201cEdgeteq S-500\u201d can also be equipped with the \u201cWz14<\/strong>\u201dworkpiece feeding system, which was previously available only for higher series. Thanks to the extended push catches of the \u201cWz14\u201d, workpieces are guided safely under the top roll pressure unit. The moving gantry ensures precise parallel cuts, a prerequisite for achieving exact 90\u00b0 angles. This means that even rough-edged workpieces can be processed perfectly.<\/p>\n
\nAmong the new features presented by Homag for \u201cEdgeteq S-500\u201d, the new \u201cWoodCommander\u00a05<\/strong>\u201d software offers new additional internal and external options for data exchange. \u201cThis has created the basis for digital production today and tomorrow<\/em>\u201d.
\nCompared to previous releases, \u201cWoodCommander 5\u201d is faster, safer and more flexible. The software is designed to select processing programs<\/strong> and edge material and enables the reliable and fast recording of production parameters as well as the workpiece-oriented creation of machine programs.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.xylon.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Homag-5.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nSafer: The real 3D workpiece simulation, the display of the dimensions directly on the 3D workpiece and the automatic check of impermissible parameter combinations<\/strong> lead to a high level of operating safety. Having fewer test workpieces also results in time and cost savings. The processing steps resulting from the simulated effect on the workpiece as well as the switchable tool track must be captured at first glance.
\nMore flexible: The machine operator has enormous flexibility thanks to the user-specific arrangement of parameters, the integrated user rights management and widgets for programs or edge material, for example.<\/p>\n
