Rollers and shafts for woodworking machines
Rollers and shafts of woodworking machines perform a supporting, transporting or clamping function. In the list of these operations:
- feeding workpieces into the tool area,
- receiving and transporting finished parts,
- clamping facing materials to the product,
- ensuring the movement of the carriages.
For the manufacture of these components, metals and polymeric materials are used.
For four sided planers
The feed rollers are driven by the engine through a gearbox, they are made of metal. Small protrusions, clinging to the surface of the workpiece, direct it to the processing zone. Pick-up rollers on four sided planers are soft-coated with rubber or polyurethane so as not to damage the surface of the part. Defects in these components affect the accuracy of the supply of workpieces and the correct acceptance of finished products.
For edge banding machines
In these machines, three types of rollers are used: clamping transport, roller conveyor, for pressing the edge in the adhesive unit. The rotating parts of the first group press the workpiece against the conveyor, ensuring the movement of the feed. The roller tables are used to support the plate material, light plastic rollers are not driven, they rotate freely.
Wide clamping elements with internal metal sleeves are installed in the edge sticker unit. They are like short shafts. The quality of edge bonding depends on the condition of these components. Polyurethane bearings are used in the trimming units of edge banding machines.
For sliding table saws
Rotating elements are mounted in a pair of carriage - support frame to ensure easy movement. Experiencing constant loads, these rollers for woodworking machines require periodic replacement. The wheels also work in a telescopic guide. The smooth running in these nodes affects the accuracy of cutting and the convenience of the staff.
For profile wrapping machines
These components are distinguished by a variety of shapes, as they work with workpieces of complex configuration. The profile of such a roller for a furniture machine can be straight, rounded, beveled. It all depends on the shape of the molding, which is wrapped in veneer, film or paper. The degree of wear of the clamping elements affects the quality of gluing the finishing system.
For Woodworking Power Feeders
These rollers have a rubber or polyurethane coating. The soft layer ensures close contact with the workpiece being fed. Such rollers are often installed on CNC furniture machines. The polymer coating wears out with frequent use.
