Edge Banding  
 
Panels for kitchen- or bathroom cabinets, counter top or skirting boards are typically manufactured by glueing a band strip of PVC, ABS, veneer, aluminium or solid wood onto the board edge. EVA, polyolefin’s or reactive PUR hotmelts for higher demands like for waterproof glued connections can be applied.

In traditional edge banding machines with glue rollers the adhesive oxidizes, gels or cokes due to the permanent air access. Robatech’s FKW 60 applicator head applies the adhesive very precisely in the same quantity and quality. Remnants of glue and contamination are avoided.
Robatech systems are featuring:
  • Precise quantity of applied glue
  • Reduced adhesive consumption, less waste
  • Constant temperatures
  • Fresh glue at all times
  • Less contamination
  • Controllable production
  • Less maintenance - field proven
