Edge banding involves applying a thin material with heat-sensitive adhesive to the exposed edges of wood panels. This seals the edges, prevents moisture damage, and provides a finished look. Edge banding machines automate the process through steps like feeding, gluing, attaching, trimming, and buffing the edge banding. Industrial edge banding machines offer benefits like consistency, uptime, and minimal waste to provide significant cost savings over manual edge banding.

1. EDGE BANDING

2. Edge banding Definition:-
Edge banding is a thin material used to seal the exposed and raw edges
of plywood. Heat sensitive adhesive on one side is applied to the board while the
other side acts as a barrier against dirt and moisture. Edge banding is mainly done
to cover plywood sides in order to match a cabinet’s finished look.

3. Why Edge banding
Makes wood more durable
Stops the wood from warping
Prevents humidity from seeping into the wood
Strengthens the wood
Adds value to the end product
