What does edgebanding mean and why is it important?
Edgebanding is the process that transforms a raw panel into a component ready to become furniture. By applying an edge to all sides, the panel gains protection, durability, and a defined appearance. More than just covering the material’s thickness, edgebanding improves mechanical strength, protects against external agents such as moisture and impacts, and gives the finished product an accurate, professional look consistent with the idea of quality. Essential in the production of furniture, kitchens, and interior fittings, edgebanding today is the perfect balance of functionality, design, and technology.
Which SCM machines are used for edgebanding?
SCM offers a specialized range of woodworking edgebanders, including automatic machines and combination solutions for both small workshops and large-scale production. SCM edgebanders are designed to ensure application exactitude, operating speed, and superior finishing quality—even on shaped panels or complex edges.
How does an SCM edgebander work and what are the advantages?
An edgebander applies edging material in rolls or strips (ABS, PVC, melamine, veneer, or other materials) using hot-melt gluing. The process is carried out in multiple automatic stages: gluing, pressure application, trimming, scraping, polishing, and, in some cases, corner rounding. Each step is optimized to ensure a strong bond and a flawless aesthetic.
SCM edgebanders integrate advanced technologies for fast and accurate edgebanding, even with mixed batches or single-piece production. They feature intuitive interfaces, rapid heating systems, high-performance operating units, and modular configurations to meet different production needs.
