THE RIGHT WIDTH |
The working width of the
finishing line is determined by a series of factors:
- The dimensions of the workpieces to be processed,
- The required production capacity,
- The application technique used (the curtain coating or roller methods
permit higher feed speeds than spraying),
- The drying time for the used finishing material.
 The
most frequent working width: 1300 mm (52")
Forniture is intended to be used in the service of man and must,
therefore, be dimensioned accordingly. Parts can be run in several rows
on a loading width of 1300 mm (52"): usually furniture sides, shelves
and doors are finished in double row, backs in single row and drawer
fronts in four or five rows.

The
narrowest working width: 300 mm (12")
This version is used for:
- Mouldings and rails,
- Surface treated edging veneers, which is finished in rolls before
being cut-to-size,
- Small parts, such as drawer sides and backs which are throughfed in
double row.
Laboratory units for finishing materials are usually in this width
measurement.

Working
width 600 - 800 mm (24" - 32")
This is the width dimension most usefully applied for surface treating
of e.g. furniture doors (which undergo an edge finishing process at the
same time), assembled frames and parquet.
|
|
Working
width 1800 mm (70")
The width dimension is used in furniture production for high quantity
production requirements, or for finishing of panels prior to the
cut-to-size process.
|
|
Working
width 2200 mm (87")
This loading width is ideally suited for finishing doors positioned
crosswise, and also panel materials.
