Wide Belt Sander finish 1352 modular

The combination unit with a roller diameter of 140 mm is used for the calibration of solid wood. The electro-pneumatic sanding pad is lowered on to the workpiece at the exact correct height for the sanding process. This prevents veneered surfaces from being sanded through, at the front and rear. The machines can also be equipped for intermediate lacquer sanding.

The clearly structured and intuitive display provides maximum productivity. The units and functions are clearly displayed on the 18" smartouch and the infeed height can be set accurately to a tenth of a millimetre. 

Additional highlights include:

• 100 program memory spaces
• Control of the units
• Adjustment of the feed speed
• Setting of the sanding height in increments of 0.1 mm
• Adjustment of the sanding pad parameters
• Maintenance intervals
• Plain text error messages

These can be added to every sanding aggregate and enable a uniform pressure on the workpiece against the feed table, which is particularly important for thin workpieces. Additionally it also reduces the minimum length of the workpiece that can be processed.

Automatic thickness measurement facilitates adjustment of the machine to the desired workpiece thickness. The workpiece is measured directly on the machine without additional measuring devices being required. The required sanding depth can be set in + or - using the adjustment wheel. This wireless option makes it possible to measure the workpiece in front of the machine. The thickness is transferred wirelessly to the machine. 

As an option, we are able to equip your Format4 wide belt sander with roller extension tables both on the infeed and outfeed side.

Maximum process reliability guaranteed when setting the working height: As the workpiece is fed into the machine, the workpiece thickness is automatically adjusted by means of fibre optic and laser sensors. The measuring device adjusts the passage height exactly to the material thickness, deducting the desired chip removal.

BCO is a new feature for monitoring the wear of the sanding belt. The operator receives an indication as to which part of the sanding belt is less worn and can therefore feed the workpieces at this point - thus preventing irregular wear of the sanding belt.

The GLP is another new feature which can be added as an option to your wide belt sander. GLP assists in reducing the power consumption and provides the following benefits:

+ speed reduction of the sanding belt between work processes
+ automatic switch-off of the infeed belt
+ automatic signal for valve control of the extraction system
