Market a wood product with hight added value?
- Any Panel Size is possible
- Low Investement Risk
- Grow Step by Step
Tech Firm
You want to manufacture exceptional productions like Magnumboard?
- High Flexibility
- Low Starting Investement
- Expand with Increasing Demand
Advantages of Vacuum
These reasons make vacuum the most widely used pressing method for CLT
Multiple Panels
Different panel sizes in the same press. Next or on top of each other.
Cut-Outs
Save 20-30% on raw material by using cut-outs for doors and windows
Individual Panel Size
The membrane adapts to any panel shape without additional measures
Evenly Distributed Pressure
The highly elastic membrane adapts to any surface while the integrated draining grooves distribute the pressure evenly
Exceptional Planarity
Max. of 2.0 mm on surfaces of up to 4×20 m
Lateral Compression System
Lamella joints in visible quality thanks to powerful hydraulics
Compactness
No loading and unloading tables before and after the press
Maintenance
Low maintenance as vacuum exerts pressure mainly on the panel and not the equipment
Low Energy Consumption
On average not more than 4kWh
Size and Price
5-10 lower invest than with mechanical presses, especially for oversizes
Certification
‘Woodtec Massivholz‘ has its own national technical approval (allgemeine bauaufsichtliche Zulassung Z-9.1-576) since 2005 from the German Institut für Bautechnik (DIBt), that boast widespread approval across borders.
Our clients thus produce certified panels under licence from day one. The dimensional range has been greatly extended as from April 29, 2020.
Extension Phases
Grow sustainably from 2‘000-40‘000 m3/a in three extension phasesVacuum Press
+ Adhesive Application Portal
Manual Feeding of the Press. Ideal for low risk market entry and development.
| Number of Operators | 3 |
| Adhesive Open Time: | 40 – 50 min |
| Number of Pressing Cycles: | 2 – 3 / Schicht |
| Output: | 2 – 3’000 m3 / year / shift |
* indications for a 3.5×15 m press at 30% of the theoretical output
Additional Presses
While one press is under pressure the next one is being loaded. Cost-effective solution for multiply output and optimizing human ressources.
| Number of Operators: | 3 |
| Adhesive Open Time: | 40 – 50 min |
| Number of Pressing Cylces: | 2 – 3 / shift |
| Output 2 presses: | 4 – 6’000 m3 / year / shift |
| Output 3 presses: | 6 – 9’000 m3 / year / shift |
* indications for a 3.5×15 m press at 30% of the theoretical output
Lateral Lamella Conveyor Portal
Lateral Lamellas are being destacked and inserted in the press. More pressing cycles with fewer operators.
| Number of operators: | 2 |
| Adhesive Open Time: | 30 min |
| Number of Pressing Cycles: | 4 / shift |
| Output 2 presses: | 8’000 m3 / year / shift |
| Output 3 presses: | 12’000 m3 / year / shift |
* indications for a 3.5×15 m press at 30% of the theoretical output
Vacuum Suction Plate
Infeed of all the Lateral Lamellas as one layer.
| Number of Operators: | 2 |
| Adhesive Open Time: | 20 – 30 min |
| Number of Pressing Cycles: | 5 / shift |
| Output 2 presses: | 8’000 m3 / year / shift |
| Output 3 presses: | 12’000 m3 / year / shift |
* indications for a 3.5×15 m press at 30% of the theoretical output
