With our new edge bander, we can lip-up 80mm thick doors, whereas the previous machine had a limitation of only 60mm [...] its preferred partner for woodworking equipment. The company invested in three new CNC machining centres and a new edge bander to replace and update some of its existing HOMAG equipment. Based in Hampshire [...] managing director, Tim Doran reviewed the machines of three equipment manufacturers at the LIGNA woodworking show. Tim opted to replace the equipment with HOMAG machines as he preferred some of the distinctive

Alexander Cleghorn moves towards a single supply chain with HOMAG

suggesting a new machine that will take our manufacturing to the next level, we can rely on HOMAG for the right advice and support.” The need for a new saw, a vertical drilling CNC and laser edging technology [...] factory. “As far as the laser edging capability is concerned, this new technology was something we’d been considering for some time. We already had a HOMAG high-speed KFL 612 edge bander with an automated feed [...] products was a move to shaped laser edging; a technology which consistently delivers an almost invisible join. Working closely with HOMAG, we were able to specify a machine that would handle a diverse range

HOMAG machinery delivers significant operational efficiencies

The forecast was compelling [...] own materials to test the machines first-hand. The demonstration impressed the team, and they were confident that HOMAG was the right choice for their needs. “Seeing the machines in action and testing them

Hot air airTec - HOMAG Group edgebander

Precise Precut use the airTec machine for the processing of their fusion doors and for carcasses. Aaron not only appreciates the superb edge quality they achieve on the machine but also the consistency. “We [...] shifts and only need two people per shift. If we run the machine to full capacity, we may need to allow 3-4 staff to be able to keep with the machine. It’s that fast.” For even more efficiency, they decided [...] want the best possible result they can buy. In case of hot air technology the function layer on the edge is reactivated by means of compressed hot air, creating a jointless result. The airTec systems were

This was particularly important for us as we needed everything including the minimum and maximum speeds of the machine, the recycle times between operations [...] “Whilst we were clear we wanted a beam saw, edge bander and vertical drilling CNC, Ian was able to suggest specific options, such as the airTec system on the edge bander. In fact, all his recommendations [...] allocated a six week period to comprehensively test each machine. We tried different combinations of tooling and drill sets, different panels and edging; everything was done to make certain that when we started
