EDGETEQ S-500 Optimat

The EDGETEQ S-500 Optimat is a single-sided edge banding machine designed for automatic application and finishing of edge materials onto panel workpieces in production and semi-production environments. It combines material feeding, adhesive application, edge pressing, and trimming in a single integrated process, with particular strength in profile rounding and surface finishing quality.

The machine's technical foundation centers on the FK30 profile trimming unit with linear motor control, which delivers precise edge rounding without the wear characteristics of conventional mechanical trimming. Variable feed speeds from 16–20 m/min (expandable to 35 m/min) accommodate different material types and finish requirements, while the trimming system handles edge thicknesses from 0.3–12 mm for strips and solid wood (up to 20 mm with extended configuration). The intelligent chip collection system integrates directly into the trimming process, reducing both maintenance intervals and energy consumption compared to standard vacuum-dependent systems.

Workpiece compatibility spans widths from 40–60 mm and thicknesses from 8–60 mm (up to 100 mm with extended configuration), making the S-500 Optimat suitable for standard panel products and specialty components. The woodCommander multi-touch interface provides operator-level configuration of feed speed, trimming depth, and adhesive application without requiring mechanical adjustment or tool changes between jobs.

This machine targets medium to industrial workshops processing between 50–200 panel units daily with consistent material specifications. It excels in applications requiring superior edge quality—visible edges on furniture, architectural panels, and cabinet components where edge appearance directly affects product aesthetics. The reduced energy footprint and integrated chip management make it cost-efficient for shops running 8+ hour production days.
