The TecnoMax edgebander with glue pot

• ME 20 automatic edge banders are entirely designed and built by MiniMax backed by the experience and expertise of the SCM Group.

• Compact, precise and versatile. Rapid retooling when changing over from one edge band thickness to another. These were the main design specifications around which the machine was developed.

• The ME15 and ME20 will apply a variety of edge bands ranging in thickness from 0.4 mm to 2.0 mm. The machine has an automatic loader for edge rolls and a pneumatic end cutter unit which guarantees a clean, precision cut on the leading and trailing edges of the panel.

Technical specification:

• working table dimension 1950x300mm
• working table height 904mm
• min/max edge thickness 0,4/1,5 - 2mm
• min/max working thickness 10/45mm
• motorized feeder speed 5m/min
• trimmers cutting speed 12.000r.p.m.
• carbide tip tools diam. 75 mm Z4-15°
• aspiration outlet diam. 120mm
• glue pot motor power 0.18 kw
• working temperature 20-450 C°
• feed motor power 0.18 kw
• trimming motor power 0.37kw
• total weight Kg 270
• max. overall dimensions L= 2045mm P= 1135mm H= 1290mm

Main options:

• Edge thicknessing kit up to 1.5 - 2 mm
• angle fence with numeric indicator
• roller unit on worktable
• numeric indicator for cutter setting on trimmer
• cutters with shaped profile (2 mm radius)
• bearings for trimmer
• Coil holder plate 730mm
• Single-phase motors 50/60 Hz

• The trimming unit has its own 0.37 kW motor and trims the surplus edge banding using two, widia-tipped cutters with a 75 mm diameter. Trimming precision is guaranteed by two, chromed copiers which are bearing mounted to ensure smooth panel feed.

• A top-mounted 0.18 kW feeder ensures uniform, powerful panel feed through the machine.

• The ME20 has a non-stick, aluminium glue tank with 5 resistances providing uniform glue melting and heating. A knurled roller, with micrometric adjustment, applies the glue to the edge.

• The machine is reasonably priced and therefore well within the reach of woodworking workshops and small carpentry businesses and what is, potentially, a wide market.
