WEINIG GROUP
underlines its competence in System Solutions
Beginning in 2008 DIMTER , part of the WEINIG
GROUP, will install another state of the art, fully automated
Optimizing System. The market leader for solid wood processing
machines offers an integrated solution from start to finish and
proves to be the only company to fulfill the strict criteria for
overall capacity and quality requirements needed.
To reach the desired overall capacity it is crucial to have a
seamless link between all the automation components of such a
complex system. The automation components of the WEINIG GROUP
that includes a tilt hoist and unscrambling system are the first
step in the production line.
Before the optimizing is done, the parts have to be
checked for metal inclusions and the moisture content is
being measured at the same time. Once checked and
accepted, the next step in the production line is the
WACO Hydromat 5000 at a speed of 330ft/min, where
the parts are being planed and ripped.
The next step is the separation and a
rough visual check of the work pieces before they are
introduced into the main process, the high-speed length
optimization on multiple DIMTER OptiCut 450 Quantum
high speed cross-cut saws.
After the first successful demonstration and
market introduction beginning in 2007 at the DIMTER Open house
in Illertissen, Germany , the High Speed Cross-Cut line was
successfully installed in the United States. The system is one
of the fastest cross-cut production line available.
The system is configured with reliable and modular automation
components. Each component is part of a standard automation kit.
These standard components are linked together to meet the
customers production, quality and manufacturing requirements.
The automation feeds reliably at maximum productivity through
one scanner and distributes to three (3) OptiCut saws at a pace
of up to 67 boards per minute.
For easier material handling after the three OptiCut 450 Quantum
saws, DIMTER will also deliver four OptiCut Stacker systems to
stack pieces from all three lines simultaneously. Preferred
lengths up to 2750mm can reliably be stacked on pallets. If the
production list requires the speed, the stackers can handle more
than 250 pieces per minute.
DIMTER has the Total Solution in solid wood for automated
defecting and crosscutting and strengthens its market position
in the growing automation segment.
