Veneer glue spreader KLM 470

Description For precise application of glue to the edges of veneer bundles. Touchpanel right-hand sided in working direction, veneer stop left-hand sided in working direction Veneers are cut parallel as usual with the EFS or ZFS guillotine. The operator places the veneer bundles onto the roller conveyor which is then feeding it to the gluing heads. Aligning of the veneer bundle and setting of the gluing heads according to the veneer width is automatically done in one process. By passing the rollers, a thin film of glue is precisely applied to the edges of the bundle. As soon as the water of the glue is evaporated, the veneers can either be processed on the KUPER FLI 1000 or the KUPER CRC or ACR machines. With this completely new concept of the KLM the parameters of the preglueing process (pressure of alignment rollers, hold-down rollers and glue-application rollers) are adjusted individually according to number of sheets and veneer thickness. The height of the package is detected by a laser at the infeed of the machine. According to this height the para- meters for alignment and glueing of the package are automatically adjusted. These parameters can be stored, edited and retrieved for different veneer species.
