End trimming, top and bottom trimming, buffing, scraping stations, with 3mm edge processing (5mm strips) are standard. This machine is perfect for the small to medium sized panel processing shops, looking for a small footprint machine with many features at a favorable price.

1-phase, compact edgebander with automatic strip magazine and 3mm radius tooling. Complete with end trimmer, top/bottom trimmers, profile scrapers, and buffing unit.

ADJUSTABLE INFEED FENCE
The Minimax ME 25E has an adjustable infeed fence with numeric readout for the edge thickness which offers precise and quick positioning.

GLUE POT UNIT
The Minimax ME 25E edge bander features a glue pot with a quick heat-up system. The glue pot is Teflon coated to allow for easy clean up and easy glue replacement. The system easily applies the glue to the panel with a vertical glue spreading roller, and the temperature is adjustable via the PLC control. The machine also has a device to automatically recover unused glue.

EDGE LOADING
Edge banding is automatically loaded, and the guillotine easily cuts PVC material up to 3mm thick. The edge banding coil support is 28” in diameter.

PRESSING SYSTEM
The edge banding is applied to the material through the use of double edge pressure rollers.

PANEL HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Manual adjustment of the presser, with numerical readout and automatic positioning of the upper operating units according to the panel height.

PANEL MOVEMENT SYSTEM
The Minimax ME 25E panel movement system is designed for a perfect finish, the very best finishing of the panel edge is further improved by the panel conveying belt (SCM patent), which prevents the panel from having the feed affected by the typical pulse generated by the pinion of a traditional feed track, which is common at slower speeds. The presser above the belt feed has support rollers that run the entire length of the machines stations to assist guiding the panel during operation.

PLC CONTROLS
The control panel is located on the front of the machine in an ergonomic position. This unit is used to control all of the machines functions quickly and intuitively. It has a 4-line LCD display keyboard with “soft touch” pushbuttons and led light indicators for the functions, and adjustments of the glue pot temperature.

AUTOMATIC END TRIMMING
The saw blade end trimmer is extremely precise. Made of solid steel, it guarantees a clean, accurate cut on the leading and trailing edges of the panel being processed. This saw blade trims both the front and rear leading edges of the panels being run. The process is completely automatic and the cut is referenced directly from the panel via micro-switches so there is no need for adjustment when running different length panels.

AUTOMATIC TOP AND BOTTOM TRIMMING
The Minimax ME 25E is equipped with automatic top and bottom trimming. It features both vertical and horizontal copy shoes for accurate positioning of your tooling with reference to the trimming point.

SCRAPING AND BUFFING
The Minimax ME 25E features buffing and scraping stations as standard for finishing of 3mm PVC/ABS edges. The scraping system assures an excellent finish, free of chatter marks and accurate positioning of the knives, thanks to the heavy-duty structure. The precise horizontal and vertical copy shoes have high-polished chrome plated surfaces that provides a scratch resistant surface for delicate materials. The buffing station includes two independent motors for cleaning and polishing the edge. The motors are tilted, and vertically adjustable to optimize the polishing and cleanliness.

WOOD STRIP LOADING DEVICE
Included with the machine configuration is the wood strip loader that automatically feeds banding (up to 3mm) and wood edge strips (up to 5mm) pre-loaded into the device.
