Veneer patching machine Patchmaster series

Every patch earns you money Patched veneer saves costs and is an ideal replacement for composed core veneer. Patched veneer also has the same technical properties as good face quality veneer. In other words, for the same quality, patching is cheaper and will increase your profit margins. Tireless patching capacity The main idea in veneer patching is to upgrade the quality of a veneer by removing certain defects, even quite large ones, from the veneer sheet and replacing it with a good quality veneer patch. When this is done by machine, the result is faultless, consistent, and neither hard wood species nor thick veneers generate any problems. One very important end-user group for veneer patching are the plywood mills that produce panels for overlaying with a phenol film. These mills must pay a lot of attention to the quality of their core veneers, too. Core veneers are very prone to open defects in the overlay-pressing process, even 10-20 mm holes in core veneers will appear as a grey spot on the overlay. This is because the overlay has become delaminated due to the open defect in the core of the basic plywood panel. The Patchmaster PM50 and PM100 were designed with a demanding production environment in mind, where reliability is the top priority. The use of select components and a robust servo drive ensure practically maintenance-free operation. They can be rapidly installed as no machine foundation is needed, and their sturdy construction guarantees that they can be used accurately. The RoboPatching System cleverly combines three technologies, all of which have a proven track record for working well in difficult production environments.
