The SCM Minimax ME 25 Automatic Edge Bander is an automatic edge bander with glue pot to edge band, with great flexibility, with melaminic edges, PVC and ABS up to 3 mm and wooden strips up to 5 mm. Machine for professional craftsmen and joineries.

Advantages

Designed for a perfect finish
The very best finishing of the panel edge is also guaranteed by the panel conveying track (exclusive solution), which prevents the panel having the feed affected by the typical pulses generatedby the pinion of a traditional feed track and ensures a smooth and linear panel movement.

Always precise when cutting
Absolute precision offered by the unit, with a cutter and an independent asynchronous.

Simple and intuitive
Error-free machining is ensured by the control panel positioned on the front of the machine, that allows an easy selection of all the main functions, among them, the operating units switching on and off. The PLC guides the operator during maintenance, cleaning, diagnostic operations, etc.

Perfect radius on pvc/abs edges
High finishing quality of plastic material edges thanks to the radius knives that ensure the complete elimination of any marks left from the rimming unit tools, all equipped with fronte and vertical copiers and a user-friendly device for exclusion of the unit when it is not in use.

Features

• Control panel on machine infeed side
• Machine frame made of high rigidity ribbed steel to guarantee an excellent support for the operating units
• Top thick steel pressure beam with rubber coated wheels
• Exclusive feed truck
• Manual adjustment of top beam with automatic positioning of the operating units according to the selected panel thickness
• Numeric indicator of the selected panel thickness
• Glue smokes specific exhaust outlet; centralized extraction of the other dusts
• Panel support roller which can be extended on the entire length of the machine
• Safety enclosure
• Electrical cabinet with PLC, padlockable main switch and overload protection
• Emergency push buttons

Standard Equipment

• GLUE POT UNIT, EDGE LOADING AND PRESSING SYSTEM - complete with:
  
  • – hot melt glue with quick heat up system and internally teflon coated to allow an easy glue replacement
  • – glue application on the panel by means of glue spreading roller
  • – temperature adjustment of the applied glue integrated in the PLC control
  • – device for automatic recovery of unused glue
  • – automatic edge loading system for rolled edges with shear device for 3 mm max. thickness edges
  • – coil holder plate, 730 mm diameter
  • – pressing unit with 2 steel edge pressure rollers
  • – adjustable infeed fence with numeric readout
  • – automatic lowering of the glue pot temperature after a temporary non-use of the machine
• END CUTTING UNIT - With motor for 90° end cutting of front and rear exceeding edge.
  The blade alignment with reference to the cutting point is carried out using a new copying device which ensures a constant and precise cutting under any working condition.
• SUPERPOSED TRIMMING UNIT - Equipped with vertical copying pads for an accurate positioning of tools with reference to the cutting point. The unit is provided with 72 mm diameter, combined cutters: the radius part of the cutter is used to trim 2 mm radius edges and chamfered thin edges. The straight part of the cutter is used for the trimming of edges in wood up to 5 mm. Changing from radius edge to edge in wood is done easily moving the cutters axially. The edge thickness is shown by 2 numeric readouts.
• EDGE SCRAPING UNIT - For the finishing of 3 mm PVC/ABS edges. It assures an excellent vibration free finish thanks to its high rigidity structure. High working precision thanks to the horizontal and vertical copying pads (with chrome plated surfaces), which assure an accurate positioning of the knives in relation to the cutting point.
• BRUSHING UNIT - With two independent motors for the cleaning and polishing of the edge. Tilted, vertically adjustable motors to optimize the cleaning/polishing action.
