Product Description
Built to meet high-production requirements, the OptiEdge 8.7 provides streamlined 45° and 90° edge banding for panels, with a smooth, single-pass operation. This machine combines high-speed performance with a user-friendly interface for seamless operations, ensuring precise gluing, trimming, and rounding for clean, professional finishes on every panel. Equipped with heavy-duty components, robust feed systems, and an intuitive Smart Touch PLC panel, the OptiEdge 8.7 is the ultimate solution for professional-grade edge banding.


Pre – Milling : An optimal unit for panel edge pre-milling with two heavy duty high frequency motors supplied with set of diamond cutters, as standard supply with machine.

45° Milling : An optimal unit to make panel edge 45°, with 7.5 hp heavy duty high frequency motor in single pass.

45° Edge Tape Grooving : An optimal unit for edge tape grooving to make proper banding with panel with diamond groove cutter, as standard supply with machine.

The Feed Track : Robust feed chain & conveyor system with heavy duty gearbox gives straight movement effective pressure on small / big panels.

45° Gluing, Banding & Edge Cutting : Glue spreading roller provides precise & consistent glue application. Perfect adhesion to the applied edge with heavy duty pressure rollers.There are three groups of pressure rollers for proper adhesion on inclined edge. Heavy duty knife with pneumatic pressure cuts the edge banding materials smoothly up to 25 mm height & 2 mm thickness.

90° Gluing, Banding & Edge Cutting : Glue spreading roller provides precise & consistent glue application.Perfect adhesion to the applied edge with 4 heavy duty pressure rollers.Heavy duty knife with pneumatic pressure cuts the edge banding materials smoothly up to 60 mm height & 3 mm thickness.

45° Trimming : Compact and powerful high frequency two motors guarantees perfect finish on edge. High level finishing thanks to the sturdy & heavy duty structure which is free of any vibration. Trimmer cutter trims the perfect finishing on straight edge of panel.

End Cutting : Compact and powerful high frequency two motors guarantees perfect finish on edge, sliding on two prismatic heavy guideways with recirculation ball bearings.

90° Fine Trimming : Compact and powerful high frequency two motors guarantees perfect finish on edge. High level finishing thanks to the sturdy & heavy duty structure which is free of any vibration. Trimmer 2R cutter trims the perfect finishing on straight edge of panel.

2 Motor Round Cornerning : Compact and powerful high frequency two motor round cornering unit guarantees perfect finish on edge, sliding on two heavy prismatic guideways with recirculation ball bearings. Trimmer 2R cutter for PVC/ABS gives perfect rounding on edges of straight, chamfered & post formed panel.

90° Edge Scraping : Gives the best finishing touch to the PVC/ABS edges, leaving no trimming marks on the panel. Unit complete with rotating copiers.

45° Flat Scrapping : Gives the best finishing touch to the PVC/ABS edges, leaving no trimming marks on the panel. Unit complete with rotating copiers.

Cleaning Agent : In order to prevent glue to adhere on panel, cleaning liquid is sprayed to lower & upper edge surface of the panel. Buffing : Perfect straight & degree edge banding finishing by unit. Independently adjustable buffing wheels, for cleaning & polishing of the panel. It can be adjustable at a particular angle to maximize its effect for perfect finishing of workpiece & increase the life of buffing wheels.

Control Panel : Easy accessible user friendly Smart Touch PLC control panel positioned at machine in-feed, for easy & quick operations.

Pressure Beam Up-down : Motorized up-down movement of pressure beam for easy thickness setting for quick operation from control panel.

Auto Lubrication : Automatic lubrication system circulates lubrication to the required parts of the machine, ensures efficient operation and increase life of parts.

Air pressure safety tanks are provided to ensure non-dropping of air during process.
