The Minimax ME 28ET is a compact machine boasting capacities usually only found on much larger units. This model comes with a single diamond pre-milling unit with chip breaker, end trimming, top and bottom trimming, scraping, buffing stations, and 3 mm edge processing (5 mm strips) standard. This machine is perfect for the small to medium sized panel processing shops, this small machine packs many features, and has a favorable price as well.
Create panel edge surfaces without any imperfections before the gluing operation. The single head diamond pre-mill and chip breaker ensures a clean edge that corrects any panel imperfections caused by the saw cutting and panel storage process. The independent exhaust system comes equipped with an exhaust hood and air blower which cleans and removes all dust and chips from the panel and stations. Four different thickness removals: 0.5 / 1 / 1.5 / 2 mm.
The ME 28ET Edgebander features a glue pot with a quick heat-up system. The glue pot is Teflon coated to allow for easy clean up and easy glue replacement. The system easily applies the glue to the panel with a vertical glue spreading roller, and the temperature is adjustable via the PLC control. The machine also has a device to automatically recover unused glue and has a standby mode while idle.
The ME 28ET panel movement system is designed for a perfect finish and further improved by the panel conveying belt (SCM patent), which prevents the panel from having the feed affected by the typical pulse generated by the pinion of a traditional feed track, which is common at slower speeds. The presser above the belt feed has support rollers that run the entire length of the machine's stations to assist guiding the panel during operation.
The saw blade end trimmer is extremely precise. Made of solid steel, it guarantees a clean, accurate cut on the leading and trailing edges of the panel being processed. This saw blade trims both the front and rear leading edges of the panels being run. The process is completely automatic and the cut is referenced directly from the panel via micro-switches so there is no need for adjustment when running different length panels.
The ME 28ET features buffing and scraping stations as standard for finishing 3 mm PVC/ABS edges. The scraping system assures an excellent finish, free of chatter marks and accurate positioning of the knives, thanks to the heavy-duty structure. The precise horizontal and vertical copy shoes have high-polished chrome plated surfaces that provides a scratch resistant surface for delicate materials.
