The Space saving design allows for placement in low overhead spaces, noise free operation, and a low energy consumption of 1kw/hour. In addition, the machine is virtually maintenance free since the pressing operation is achieved via electric motors instead of pneumatics or hydraulics. Back to Top     OMAL 1550 with Laser April 2010 The OMAL HBD 1550 boring and doweling machine has a 5' work table and CNC bores, glues and inserts dowels. The machine has a cycle time of approximately ONE second for each bore, glue, and dowel insertion when holes are on 32mm intervals!! The selection of the loading zone (left, left center, right center, or right) is executed by CNC PLUS the center and side references are excludable so you can process up to 10' long panels. In addition, the OMAL "Sure Shot" revolver system guarantees a dowel is inserted every time, eliminating misfeeds!   In addition, the HBD 1550 can be equipped with OMAL’s laser measuring device that will measure the panel width to +/- 0.1mm and calculate the correct dowel spacing based on a set of logical instructions. Couple this technology with auto-start control and the machine can be completely automatic. The operator just has to load the panel and the machine will automatically start, measure and drill and dowel panel.

Back to Top   Quick Tips For Improving Banding Quality April 2010  A major cause of undesirable edgebanding quality is a dirty machine. Many times, the primary culprit is glue on copy wheels, shoes and guides. If the machine has been running good quality parts and suddenly begins producing poor quality results, the typical response is for the operator to reach for a wrench and/or an adjustment knob. This results in a downward spiral of adjustments that can take the machine further down the quality scale.  In fact, a better solution would be for the operator to reach for an air hose, rag, and cleaning solvent. Check the machine thoroughly for excess glue build-up before adjusting!  This is true regardless if you use a roller glue pot or nozzle delivery system.  If glue build-up on the copy systems is an ongoing issue with your machine, here are a couple tips to consider. Check the amount of glue applied to the edge of the panel and make sure the glue applicator is perpendicular to the panel. There should only be a VERY small and equal amount of glue squeeze out on the top and bottom of the panel once the edgebanding is applied.  Some hot melts can be stringy which quickly builds throughout the machine. The scrapers or wipers on the copy wheels should be checked daily to insure they are operating properly plus the copy wheel bearings whould be checked.  Make sure all copy wheels spin freely. The copy wheel wipers should be adjusted or replaced as needed to keep the copy wheels clean. Once the machine has been properly cleaned it should be adjusted according to the manufacturers’ procedures and specifications.  For a complete tip guide on obtaining quality edgebanding, email gyarborough@delmac.com.

News Customers Events   TESTIMONIALS: "We wish to give you a hearty thank you for the timeliness and expert manner in which you responded to our needs. We could not have asked for better service; especially when we asked if the parts we needed could be on the next flight. It is impressive to think the President of the company would be willing to go out of his way and take a part to the airport; that a Service Manager would be willing to turn around and come back to the office and find a part and that a Parts Manager would get out of bed early to take the part to the airport. Thanks Again!" Kitchen Associates
