The new generation of Holzmann boring machines

Although it's the end of the year, the friendly craftsman Holzmann is also working and researching in order to be able to bring complete and complex solutions to customers at competitive prices. In fact, Holzmann Austria has spent the whole year innovating, perfecting and diversifying its machines. Of these, the cant applicators stood out in particular, with constant demand from customers and distributors prompting the manufacturer to add the latest technologies in the field. As a result, the Austrian manufacturer has come up with three new models of edgebanding machines this year, dedicated to small furniture manufacturers and carpentry workshops.

New models of Holzmann cant applicators

After much testing and having earned a top place by the number of KAM 215 EPS canting machines sold, Holzmann Austria comes with 3 new improved models:

• canting machine with pre-friction KAM 215 EPSV
• canting machine with corner rounding unit KAM 215 EPSK
• edge banding machine with pre-creasing and corner rounding unit KAM 215 ALL

The aim of these new models is to enable small producers to benefit from the advantages of a cartoning machine without a large investment, purchasing only the services they need or want. The KAM series machines enable producers to achieve and maintain the desired productivity and achieve a higher quality finished product. All at a fair and affordable price. The capping machines are already in the warehouses of Danibrum - Holzmann's representative in Romania - some of which are now on their way to customers or even in their workshops.

KAM 215 EPS - basic features and starting point for the three new models

KAM 215 EPS is designed specifically for workshops and small manufacturers. Compact and stable, it can easily find its place in any workshop and is very useful for those who process chipboard or MDF panels for furniture. The machine applies PVC cant in thicknesses between 0.4 and 3 mm on straight surfaces. The size of the panels that can be edged can be between 10 and 50 mm thick and the minimum machining length is 120 mm. The board feeding is automatic and constant at a speed of 10.3 m/min.

The cant applicator KAM 215 EPS has 6 basic groups:

• pre-adhesion
• pressing the edge onto the adhesive panel
• cutting at the ends
• țicling on the right
• profiled milling on both sides
• polishing

The edge is glued to the panel with thermoplastic adhesive. It starts heating as soon as the machine is switched on, but there is also a stand-by function to avoid overheating of the glue in the vat. The temperature can be adjusted electronically from a touch-screen panel. The adhesive is placed directly on the panel and the edge is then applied. Pressing is done with 4 pressure rollers to ensure a very good contact between the panel and the edge, resulting in a durable bond. The cutting of the edge at the ends is very precise and carried out with 2 independent circular cutters. The spicling unit removes excess glue from the lower and upper face, and the profile cutters ensure milling to a radius of 2 mm on both faces. For setting edge types, the KAM 215 EPS has an adjustment unit equipped with a counter.

New in the new generation of KAM 215 canting machines - the pre-milling and corner rounding unit

With the addition of 2 more workgroups, the pre-milling group and the corner rounding group, Holzmann now offers more possibilities, bringing this range of canting machines for workshops into the middle class. The added groups allow the furniture maker to achieve a higher quality of the finished product. At the same time, he can choose the machine best suited to his needs, from a machine with basic features to a machine comparable in performance to those used by large furniture factories.
