Edge banding machines can be divided based on the level of automation, primarily consisting of manual edge banders, half-automatic edging machines, and automatic edge banding machines. All the types have special features and creates special banding effects based on different production requirements.

The most significant distinction between fully automatic and semi-automatic edge banders is their processing capacity. Semi-automatic machines are capable of executing simple operations like gluing, edge banding, trimming upper and lower parts, and polishing. Fully automatic edging machines, however, are equipped with advanced technology such as pre-milling, gluing, edge banding, trimming, contour tracing, scraping, and polishing. Owing to their high cost-performance ratio, fully automatic edge banders have replaced semi-automatic models from production units in the long term.

From the edge banding shape point of view, edging machines are classified into straight edge banders, straight and curved edge banders, and bevel edge banders. They are all designed to work with particular edge profiles, providing precision and flexibility in furniture manufacturing.

Opt for Beichen for a superior, more efficient edge banding solution.

In the current market, five fundamental operations are offered in the majority of automatic edge banding industrial machines: banding and gluing, trimming, end cutting, scraping, and polishing. These fundamental operations guarantee quality edge banding on different panels and are therefore inevitable in contemporary furniture manufacturing.

Basic Functions

Gluing and Banding: Six impression wheels (1 big and 5 small) strongly press the edge banding tape after hot melt glue application is complete. The gate on the cylinder-controlled glue pot provides even application of glue with consistent thickness and eliminates slippage of tape along with improving bond security.

End Cutting: This operation takes off excess edge banding tape from each end of the board with high-speed motor-driven saw blades. Standard and high-speed double guide rail types of end cutting are available in edge banders with a cylinder system for pressure holding precise cuts.

Trimming: Trimming is used to cut off excess material from above and below the edge band using trimming knives. The process includes rough and fine trimming, the second of which produces a neater and smoother finish. Less costly equipment might have only rough trimming, producing less delicate results.

Scraping: Scraping removes corrugated marks that are caused by curved edge banding, leaving a silky finish. Flexible scraping is very well-liked because it performs better without harming the edge band or board.

Polishing: Polishing uses a cotton polishing wheel to eliminate burrs and excess glue lines, leaving a polished and clean edge.

Advanced Features:

Pre-milling: This feature smooths out rough surfaces or cutting saw imperfections, allowing the edge banding tape to seat securely for a perfect finish.

Profiling Tracking: Or otherwise referred to as corner rounding, this feature rounds off sharp corners to attain a safe and better-looking finish. Advanced designs provide precision and stability.

Cleaning: This feature cleans off excess glue from the glue pot so that the machine is in optimal form and condition.

Slotting: Slots wardrobe side panels, bottom plates, or aluminium edges directly, cutting down on extra sawing operations.

Pneumatic Cutter Adjustment: Enables quick adjustment of edge band thickness from the screen, and it facilitates easy changing between various kinds of panels and thicknesses.

Upper Glue Pot: Though the majority of edge banders incorporate a lower glue pot, an upper glue pot is needed for using PUR glue, providing more adhesive flexibility.

Double Glue Pots: Allows simultaneous use of two types of glue, saving time and effort spent on switching the color or kind of glue.

Beichen edge banding machines are renowned for their new functions, accuracy, and reliability. With Beichen, you can enjoy premium edge banding outcomes and maximize your production efficiency. Regardless of whether you require fundamental functions or advanced functions, Beichen provides innovative solutions that meet your demands. Select Beichen for a seamless and professional edge banding process.

The wood edge banding machine is specifically applied to edge banding of medium-density fiberboard, wood board, solid wood board, particleboard, etc. That is why we also refer to the machine as plywood edging, MDF edging, etc. Depending on wood material, it can finish birch edge banding, maple edge banding, walnut edge banding, and other wood veneer edge banding.

The completely automatic edge banding machine is widely applied in middle and large-sized furniture factories. It has such great advantages as stable operation, high automation degree, stable performance, and low cost. In addition, the automatic edge bander machine is an indispensable CNC machine in most of the furniture production lines.
The manual edge banding machine is ideal for straight and irregular banding edges. The manual edge bander machine is the most suitable edge banding machine appropriate for small shop sizes. Additionally, it can be conveniently shifted from one office location to another to execute the banding process at the workstation.
