Burkle Feed Through Press

This system is ready to be removed from the current location. Downstroke type, suitable for the pressing of veneers, HPL, etc. onto parts made of chipboards and MDF boards. Consisting of Item 1 Loading Belt White plastic fabric belt with polyurethane coating. Drive by a reversible geared motor. Covering over the gap between the belt and the infeed of the press. In addition the belt runs on supporting rollers. One-piece support of the belt. Length of transport approx. 4,000 mm Width of transport approx. 1,600 mm Working height approx. 950 mm Feed coupled with the press loading equipment. Markings on the conveyor belt for the cylinder rows and the maximum useful width. Total transport track liftable and lowerable with a guided introduction of the sealing frame and the vacuum plate. Mobile switch for acknowledgement and stop fitted to the top of the Infeed. Technical Data Size of heating platens 1,700 x 3,400 mm (67" x 134") Useful area 1,550 x 3,100 mm (61" x 122") Loading side 1,700 mm (67") Total pressure 5,800 kN (638 tons) Flat Press Max. specific hydraulic pressure 121 N/cm² (172 psi) Daylight between platens/stroke 150 mm (6") Number of pistons 10 x 160 mm (6 ¼") diameter Hydraulic operating pressure 288 bar (4095 psi) 2 steel heating platens (heated by thermal oil) 2 x 115 mm (5 ½") thickness Max. operating temperature on the surface of the heating platens 150∞C (302∞F) Working height approx. 950 mm (35 ¾") Weight of the press approx. 47,000 kg (103,400 lbs) Special Features Frame made of solid steel platens. The frames are mounted on supporting girders. Heating Platens made of solid steel platens with a polished surface and drilled heating channels. Insulation between frame and heating platen. Parallel Guiding of the top heating platen by compensating rods and a roller guiding which is independent of temperature. Hydraulic Cylinder made of steel with guide rings, lip seal packings and dust scraper lip. Pistons with a chromium-plated surface Heating Medium thermal oil fed by hoses with stainless steel armouring provided for at the left-hand side Safety device to avoid the overriding of boards by means of a linear potentiometer, for the adjustment of the thickness of the boards. Post-Suction Hydraulics with an oil container on the press and filling valves on the cylinders. The pressure is generated by a high pressure piston pump. Manometer to indicate the hydraulic operating pressure, provided for on the face of the press. Automatic opening of the press. Pump and control unit mounted together in between the frames. The hydraulic pressure is controlled according to the pneumatic pressure. 2 Transverse rows of cylinders to be isolated by a push-button in the control desk. Protective grates at the longitudinal sides which can be pushed upwards. Loading Station with circulation, temperature-resistant synthetic conveyor belts. Smooth starting and smooth slowing down. Covering over the returning belt. Drive by means of a reversible geared motor coupled with the loading belt. Guide rollers galvanized. Shaking Device for the protective belt at the top heating platen to detach boards which might adhere to the same. Cleaning Device for the circulating conveyor belts by means of suction nozzles at the infeed of the press. Item 3 Outfeed Roller Track To take-over the finished boards. Dwell time on the rollers serves as cooling time. Item 4 Thermal Oil Heater and Secondary Control Circuits Provided by user Item 5 Switch Cabinet with microprocessor based programmable control (PLC make Schleicher, Promodul U). Cables placed on the floor (approx. 5 meter long).
