New Forming Station PB

The new Forming Station PB for more efficient particleboard production consists of the newly developed WindFormer and PB Scalper. Its compact design is up to 10 m shorter than a conventional 4-head forming station. A complete aerodynamic redesign of the WindFormer enables a 30% reduction in the amount of air to be moved and improves separation of flakes. The PB Scalper increases spreading accuracy while increasing throughput. Thus capacities of up to 2,000 m³/day are possible with only one core layer spreading head.

Application

Mat forming for particleboard (PB) pressing

Customer benefits

Excellent material separation and distribution
Air volume reduced by 30 % compared to the state-of-the-art WindFormer
Less usage of raw material
Reduced energy consumption
Lower sanding allowance in combination with CPS+ continuous press
Less space required
Premium board surface for direct printing or laminating
Ideally suited for modernization measures

Technical features

WindFormer:
- Material infeed with cascade effect
- Separation for surface layer mainly due to air (particle weight) in combination with roller screen (particle size)
- 2 m shorter than the state-of-the-art WindFormer
New PB Scalper:
- Fully automated cross profiler underneath the forming belt for adjusting the material's cross distribution
- Forming station with only one rake spreader head for core layer particles due to the integration of the new PB Scalper
