The wood and furniture industry handles all types of wooden pieces. From melamine sheets to chipboard panels and raw wood panels, it is a dusty, abrasive industry, and some handled pieces are porous. The handling equipment must adapt to these constraints and this environment. NOVACOM therefore offers solutions tailored to this type of application.
Wood industry requirements:
Very short cycle time
Adaptability to the surface being handled (porous, presence of veins and chips)
Avoid clogging of the vacuum circuit
Energy saving
Applications:
Unstacking of sheets (separation of wood sheets to feed the production line)
Holding for machining
Separation of sheets and Cleaning
The multitude of nozzles, air curtains, blow guns, and blow-off bars offered by NOVACOM allows for the separation of sheets during unstacking as well as various cleaning applications.
Handling of smooth and airtight products
For handling melamine, flat suction cups (series 5, 90, and PFG) are perfectly suitable as it is a type of flat and airtight product. Other suction cups, such as those with foam strips, can allow for the gripping of raw wood panels with veins.
Anti-clogging venturis and pneumatic transport
The wood industry is a very dusty environment. To ensure the proper functioning of the vacuum circuit, NOVACOM recommends opting for an anti-clogging venturi (VCR series).
Regarding the recovery and evacuation of chips, pneumatic transports (TP series) and the suction wand (CANDAS series) are ideal solutions. Air amplifiers (AA series) are also used for the suction of webs.
