Development of a production process for the elimination of the wood veneer breaking in its use as a moulding

Objective


From characterization and study of the supports, wood veneers and adhesives, as well as of the variable incidents in the bottom line, it can be concluded which can be the best operative way to cover the mouldings with wood veneers.

In the first place a spraying of the wood veneers with water steam for about 30 seconds at 120(C for both faces is recommended. Immediately after the wood veneer should pass through a line of 6 to 8 rollers on line for the impregnation of the veneers with the resin Incorez W830/118 for one of the faces. The veneer would pass through an infrared tunnel, where the resin would be dried. Nevertheless, the temperature of the tunnel would be as homogeneous as possible. Besides, the temperature must not be very high, since it impacts negatively in the wood veneer making it wizened.

After the drying, the wood veneer would be introduced into a moulding covering machine, where it would be glued for the face on which is going the resin to the substrate.

All this process must be continuous and mechanized. It is fundamental that none of the incident parameters such as the temperature, the times of application, the quantities of material added or the dampness of the wood veneer suffer variations, since they are determinant factors in the bottom line.
