The horizontal finger joint machine has three main sections:
• The infeed is magazine loaded onto a slat chain conveyor; material passes the first profile head and then is cross-fed piece by piece to the second profiling head.
• The boards then pass the glue head and then cross fed onto the crowding table.
• From there the now joined pieces are fed through to the press – cross cut to length and then hydraulically pressed to finish the process.
Key features include:
• Continuous feed
• Horizontal fingers for aesthetics
• 15 Kw twin profile cutters for high piece count
