Functionally, the gluing and laminating press consists of four components
1. The first component, the work table for stacking products.
- On the press "G-1430V-1" it is possible to laminate workpieces with PVC film, or use a silicone membrane to bend workpieces by pressing and veneer them.
- On the G-1430V-2 press, similar operations are performed as on the G-1430V-1 press, but there is also the possibility of simultaneously facing several high bent blanks (up to 350 mm high) with PVC film (in the case of the G-1430V press -1" it will not be possible to stretch the film on several tall parts without lowering the table due to the formation of wrinkles and / or the impossibility of clamping the film in the frame due to its tension over the curved facade). Thanks to the lowering table, the workpiece is lowered together with the working table by 200 mm, the film is clamped and stretched from above in the frame. When the set temperature is reached, the table rises and lamination takes place.
- The standard width of the silicone membrane or PVC film determines the width of the working table of the press 1250 millimeters, the length of the table according to the dimensions of your parts or a set for one cycle of lamination, gluing.
- For molding and gluing large parts, the membrane is glued, and the dimensions of the working table can be increased, for example, 1700x3500 or 1700x4000 mm
- On the press "G-1740V-3" to serve the entire working area table of a large desktop, the upper part of the table with fans, air ducts and heaters rises vertically on racks and provides access around the perimeter of the desktop. To increase the productivity of the press, a second working table for stacking products can be installed. At the same time, the process of heating, laminating or molding products takes place on one table, with the process of removing and stacking the next batch of products on the second table.
2. The second component, when heated are used
- Heating elements with fans for heat distribution by air currents,
- or infrared lamps installed without fans.
- with a narrow specialization of cold gluing and molding, a heating and ventilation unit is not installed.
3. The third component, the creation of pressure on the laminating film and the glued and formed parts.
- to work with thin films and parts, vacuum pumps are used that create a vacuum under the silicone membrane up to 0.9 kg/cm2.
- to work with thick materials, artificial stone, compressors are used that create pressure over the silicone membrane up to 9 kg / cm2.
4. Fourth component, for high precision control technological processes and to prevent loss of gloss, overheating or tearing of the film, electronic software is installed
- a friendly interface that allows the user to independently dial the operating modes of the press, or, even easier, select a program from a list of pre-installed programs.
- for exclusive operations there is a manual control option.
A complete line of presses allows you to produce:
- cladding of bent relief facades of furniture,
- gluing flat and bent parts,
- molding curved fronts, ceramic sinks, cake packaging,
- facing decorative details,
- cladding of large-sized parts of tables and furniture, snowboards, surfboards, wind deflectors for car doors, stylish packaging for products, dishes, vases, shades and exclusive.

Furniture production in our country is very well developed. There are many companies that make cabinets, tables, headsets, etc. Consequently, competition in this market segment is unusually high. In order to make a good profit, enterprises of this specialization need to pay maximum attention to both the quality of their products and their appearance. Simply put, the furniture should be not only solid, but also beautiful. In order to achieve this, of course, it is necessary, first of all, to use high-quality machines in production.
Machine tools for the manufacture of blanks
In specialized enterprises, such as:
format machines. This equipment is designed specifically for cutting MDF or chipboard.
Milling and copying machines. They are necessary for applying a certain relief to the plates.
Presses for the production of bent facades.
They are necessary for processing facade parts when applying paint or varnish to them.
Also in the furniture industry without fail a vacuum membrane press is used, which will be discussed in this article. This equipment is used for pasting the facades of cabinets and sets with decorative PVC film or veneer. Modern machines of this type have a fairly simple design and are also easy to use.
The main elements of the design of the vacuum machine
The arrangement of this type of equipment is not too complicated. Any such machine consists of five main elements:
- A table on which furniture blanks are laid out. Its surface is usually sheathed with a metal sheet or thick tin.
- vacuum pump.
- clamping frame. This press element is also made of durable metal.
- heating installation. Used in different presses different types this equipment. The heating installation can be infrared or contact.
- Actually the press itself. It can be made in the form of a hinged or rolled cover.
Additional design elements
Such equipment is called vacuum because the dense pressing of the film to the blanks in it is carried out by completely pumping out air from under it. From the end of the table in such equipment there are shafts (one or more) for rolls of PVC film. In order for the workpieces to fit the material as tightly as possible, they are placed on special substrates on the table. When finishing MDF or chipboard with veneer, special glue is additionally used. The press is controlled using an automatic remote control. In this case, the operator has the ability to manually configure the equipment.
Types of presses
At the moment, enterprises use only two main types of such machines:
Actually vacuum presses. Used for finishing furniture blanks in a gentle way. Such installations can provide a pressure of no more than 0.95 kg/cm 2 .
Vacuum with additional pressure. Such equipment is much more expensive. At the same time, it can provide pressure up to 8.5 kg/cm 2 .
The first variety is usually used for gluing PVC film or for veneering simple blanks. Vacuum presses of the second type are used for facing MDF furniture parts with a complex configuration.
Membrane for presses
Both types of vacuum machines are usually supplemented with a special membrane. It is used most often when pasting blanks with veneer as an additional “press” that prevents unwanted movements during work. Also, the membrane is used when finishing parts with very thin films that do not tolerate extreme temperatures. This element is attached to hooks located along the perimeter of the clamping frame.
In such a sphere of the national economy as furniture production, only two main types of membranes are used. Most often, these elements are made of rubber. Sometimes durable silicone is also used. The latter is obtained by vulcanization, and therefore, it has all the qualities of natural rubber. At the same time, silicone also has a greater degree of wear resistance.
Among other things, the use of a rubber or silicone membrane in the press allows you to:
to veneer details of very small sizes;
reduce film waste.
Film finish
The procedure for gluing furniture blanks with PVC material using equipment such as a vacuum membrane press includes the following steps:
On the surface of the table, the substrates are carefully laid out. At the same time, technological gaps of several centimeters are left between them. This is necessary because during the pressing process, the film is stretched and compresses, including the ends of the blanks along the perimeter. Without gaps, this becomes simply impossible.
Blanks are laid on the substrates: cabinet doors, drawer slats, parts of the facade, etc.
The table with blanks is completely covered with a PVC film rolled off the rollers.
A clamping frame is lowered onto the film along the perimeter, pulling and straightening it.
Depending on the design, the press itself is lowered from above or advanced from the side.
The operator sets the temperature and pressure values required by the technology on the control panel and turns on the equipment. After that, the film begins to warm up. As soon as its surface reaches a certain temperature, the vacuum unit is turned on. Air begins to be pumped out from under the film (at a given pressure and a certain speed).
After the set time has elapsed, the operator turns off the press and folds it back (or moves it back).
The main equipment for the production of MDF facades in PVC film is a thermal vacuum press.Today, a huge number of presses with a wide variety of technical characteristics are presented on the Russian market.Therefore, before purchasing, you should ask yourself a few questions in order to correctly answer the main one - how to choose a vacuum press for MDF facades.
The size of the working surface of the vacuum press for MDF facades
When choosing the size of the working table of the press, the expected volume of production and the range of MDF products should be taken into account. Manufacturers of thermal vacuum presses for the manufacture of MDF facades offer equipment with a working surface of 1150× 1090 mm, such as, for example, a membrane-vacuum press for bent MDF facades from the New Technologies company, Penza. The maximum size of the working table of a vacuum press for facing MDF facades can currently boast of Latvian equipment VP -4000, from ISTRA-A (Latvia), with table 4000× 1400 mm.
Please note that the standard width of PVC film rolls for vacuum pressing is 1400 mm. Some European companies offer films with a width of 1420 and 1450 mm. However, the main manufacturers of equipment for membrane vacuum pressing are oriented towards the 1400 mm standard.
In addition, for continuous flow production of MDF facades, some developers offer membrane-vacuum presses with 2-3 working tables, such as Master PRO, Moscow. The movable heating carriage, moving freely over the working surfaces, provides alternate heating of the PVC film. The structure of the vacuum press can include a table for cladding curved facades.
The design of a vacuum press for MDF facades and its dimensions
With a shortage of work space furniture shop the natural question will be the size of the vacuum press for the production of MDF facades and the area it occupies. But we should not forget about the convenience of equipment maintenance. Here it is necessary to understand constructive solutions the location of the working table and the heating module offered by the manufacturers of vacuum presses.
The main manufacturers offer the following options for the design of the membrane vacuum press:
· With movable heating carriage on rail guides. This design of the vacuum press allows you to lay out MDF facades from 3 sides.
· Vacuum press for MDF facades with hinged lifting thermal module. The effectiveness of this design lies in saving the working space of the furniture workshop. However, laying down parts and stretching the PVC film becomes more difficult.
·
With pull-out table for loading MDF and PVC foil parts, such as the vacuum press for MDF facade cladding MTA-2500. Ideal for small furniture production, as it will compactly fit into any corner of the workshop.
· The most effective in terms of workshop space saving and serviceability are membrane-vacuum machines with vertical pneumatic or hydraulic lifting of the heating module, such as the VPF-2 vacuum press from a Latvian manufacturer, or the Italian PM ORMA press, which, among other things, allows to produce facing products with 2 -x sides.
Features of the configuration of membrane-vacuum presses for the manufacture of MDF facades
1. Heating module of the membrane vacuum press . At the current level of development, manufacturers of vacuum presses for cladding MDF facades in PVC film use quartz-halogen thermal heaters that provide fast heating with minimal energy consumption. In other embodiments, infrared lamps may be used. Some manufacturers of membrane-vacuum presses use hot air for heating, supplied through heating elements, to prevent uneven heating on the membrane surface. In addition, additional thermal equipment for heating the table can be installed on the vacuum press. Chinese machine tool manufacturers heat PVC film by pumping hot air underneath it.
2. Automation of the process of facing MDF facades in PVC film . Vacuum presses equipped with automation systems have proven themselves well in in-line and continuous furniture production. Human participation is reduced only to laying the details of the MDF facades on the desktop and then trimming the excess PVC film. However, in small businesses that work daily with a wide range of PVC films, it is easier to carry out the cladding process manually, “by eye”.
3. Silicone, rubber or rubber membrane . Most manufacturers supply a vacuum press for MDF facades with silicone membrane, which has high heat resistance and elasticity. With the help of a silicone membrane, some technological operations for gluing are performed various materials, giving them a curved shape according to the template, as well as for rational use PVC films for small volumes of bookmarks. In some designs of vacuum presses, the silicone membrane is mounted on a special frame, which makes it more convenient to use. In other cases, the process of cladding MDF facades in PVC film is based directly on the use of a silicone membrane, and it is an integral part of the equipment.
4. Vacuum pump. As a rule, modern membrane-vacuum presses for MDF facades are installed oil pumps, which currently have the highest performance. With a small size of the vacuum press table and a short pressing time, oil-free "dry" pumps with lower performance. As a budget option, a membrane-vacuum press can be installed VVN water ring pump. With a significant size of the working table of the vacuum press, the vacuum pump can be supplemented with a receiver. Some machine tool builders combine a vacuum supply with a counter-supply of high pressure, so a compressor may be required with the equipment.
5. Dividing frame . It is used when dividing the working table of a membrane-vacuum press for the simultaneous use of two types of film or one, in combination with a silicone membrane, for the rational use of PVC film with a small number of products.
6. Additional desktop . In large-scale production of MDF furniture facades in PVC film, the installation of one additional working table allows increasing the productivity of the membrane-vacuum press and, accordingly, the output by 1.5 times or more.
7. Membrane vacuum press control panel . When crimping MDF facades "in manual" mode, as a rule, two buttons are used to turn on the heating and vacuum pump, as well as a valve that regulates the vacuum supply rate. More powerful and automated equipment requires an appropriate control panel.
8. Possibility of manufacturing radius (curved) MDF facades . in mind design features some membrane-vacuum presses do not allow the production of MDF radius facades and their cladding in PVC film. On the other hand, as for example the Master PRO company in Moscow, machine tool builders took care of this option by adding additional devices to their equipment.
9. Unwinders . Including with manual or pneumatic cutting of PVC film. Such equipment can significantly increase the productivity of a vacuum press with large production volumes.
10. Antistatic brushes . Allows to remove a static charge from a PVC film to facilitate its cleaning and eliminate debris sticking to its surface before feeding it to a vacuum press. They are installed in order to improve the quality of the manufacture of MDF facades and other products.
11. Support system. Special supports, including magnetic ones, are used as a substrate when laying MDF facades on the working table of a vacuum press. Some manufacturers even took care of such a “little thing”.
12. PVC Film Waste Briquetting Press, Silicone Membrane Tears and Damage Repair Devices, PVC Film Roll Storage Movable Racks - all this may not be included with a membrane-vacuum press for MDF facades, however, it is often offered by the manufacturer as additional equipment, such as, for example, German designers of vacuum presses BR 2600, Wemhoener. Such devices do MDF production facades more convenient and efficient.
Before you finally decide and choose a vacuum press for MDF facades, you should also study the price range, the availability of options for installation and adjustment of equipment, staff training, further warranty and service.
This machine is mainly used as a woodworking equipment. Its principle of operation is to cover wooden surfaces PVC film or veneer. The main users of this device are furniture factories. This is due to the fact that the process of lamination using a vacuum press significantly accelerates the productivity of the factory and makes it possible to create an exclusive design of furniture surfaces. In addition, the machine can be used to decorate bent interior items. This feature has become available due to the improvement of the press and the expansion of its capabilities. The same possibilities make it possible to use carbon films and fiberglass for coating surfaces of water and land transport. Such presses are called specific.

The coating of the surface with the processing material is very high quality and such a surface lasts for a long time. And the technology itself is very simple and consists in the simultaneous interaction of vacuum technology and heating of the working surface. The cost of the machine does not allow many factories to introduce it into their workshop, but if you still purchase it, then the payback will not be long in coming. The reason for this is the savings on the purchase of ready-made materials for cabinet furniture (for example), since by purchasing bare chipboard and processing it yourself on a vacuum press, it will be much cheaper than buying an already laminated pressed board.
Vacuum presses are:
- Book pressing. The top cover of the unit opens and closes in the form of a book. There are covers with manual and automatic drive;
- Conveyor pressing. A table equipped with a conveyor belt that feeds the processed material to the working body of the press. Such models have a design with one and two work tables;
Vacuum press vp 3000
A vacuum press is used to transfer an image or inscription to any surface of a product using sublimation. Sublimation is the process of printing under high temperature any picture that is pre-printed on special paper to display it on the surface of the workpiece. The final image can have both a black and white look and a color palette, including ultraviolet paints, which multifacetedly expands the possibilities of using a vacuum heat press. Due to the ability to transfer an image from paper to an object, such a unit is called a 3D press.
For the rational use of equipment, there are several features that save time and money in the event of a marriage. It's about temperature control. Depending on the material from which the object for processing is made, the temperature of the working membrane of the heat press must be different. If the applied image is underheated, then the image will turn out to be pale and vulnerable to mechanical stress. If you overheat, the picture will become blurry and the color contrast will change, wear resistance will also leave much to be desired.
What are vacuum heat presses?
- Household. Compact body designed to handle small items at low throughput rates. Although, modern models are quite multifunctional and are equipped with processors that control temperature regime, which speeds up the crimping process;
Household heat press - Industrial. They have a large working area and are able to apply 3D patterns at high speed;
Thermal vacuum press suitcase MVP 2500s
This type of press differs from the usual vacuum press in that it is intended mainly for covering wooden and other surfaces with veneer. The membrane is an additional equipment that promotes a tighter fit of the material applied to the surface to be treated, thereby creating a lot of pressure in combination with an increased temperature, which makes it possible to fit the workpieces with such a hard material as veneer. In addition, membrane presses are widely used for applying film and similar raw materials to the relief surfaces of doors, columns, cornices, interior elements, structural facade slabs and others.
Membrane vacuum press
Special equipment that is designed to create plastic molds, packaging, figurines and other items. For a certain product, an appropriate machine is needed, since everything depends on the dimensions, density of the plastic and the variant of the process.
The principle of operation of vacuum machines is the same in almost all modifications. A blank is placed inside the vacuum chamber (it is made of wood, gypsum, polystyrene foam, rubber, metal, etc.). Also, a raw material (plastic) is placed in the chamber, which becomes elastic under the influence of temperature and, when stretched, can increase its area up to 10 times. A pump is connected to the working chamber, which at the right time creates a vacuum, which ensures that the plastic adheres to the workpiece, completely repeating its shape. The thicker the plastic needs to be finished product, the more powerful the pump is required to create a vacuum.
Vacuum forming machine
Vacuum technology for food products, medicines, precious metals and banknotes. With the help of vacuum packaging machines, the process of decomposition of food molecules is inhibited and they are kept fresh for more than 20 days. By the same principle, tablets and banknotes are packaged to avoid moisture and dirt.
Vacuum packaging machine Packaging machines have different variations of vacuuming performance. So, they are divided into:
- Single and double plank. Sealing of the edges of the packaging is carried out on one or both sides;
- Single and double chamber. Packaging can occur both in individual form and paired with another type of product;
- Household and industrial. The first modification is used at home, in catering processes and mini-factories. The second one is used in enterprises specializing in vacuum packaging in large volumes;
The purpose of vacuum forming machines is to form relief forms from sheet plastic, polymer or PVC, with a depth of cavities or bulges up to 500 mm. The body of these units is designed for overall products, which allows you to form a wide range of finished products. The peculiarity of vacuum forming machines is that due to the zonal heating of infrared heating elements (each zone is divided into separate sectors of 0.2 m 2), it is possible to simultaneously carry out forming of varying complexity and with different relief depths on one sheet of raw material. The whole process takes place automatically, after setting all the parameters by the operator using the software.
Vacuum casting machine 
plastic mold
This fixture is an accessory for CNC milling machines. Standard milling machine has special bolt clamps for the workpiece, but they apply strong point pressure on the material, which can damage it. In order to avoid such nuances, a vacuum table was created that works on the principle of a suction cup, attracting the workpiece to itself with the help of a compressor that pumps air between the surface of the table and the workpiece. Thus, there is a reliable fixation of the material for further milling.
CNC machine with vacuum table
A vacuum press is a device that is primarily designed to process various materials. This process is carried out by applying a film that can have a variety of standards. Often, such devices have, in addition to the main one, a number of additional functions. Such installations have found their active application in various industries. But most often, they are used in large industries. As for those industries where the vacuum press has become an integral element, then for sure - this is the furniture industry. This direction simply cannot function without a vacuum press. 
One of the target tasks of a vacuum press is the creation of various figures from wood, plastic and similar materials. Judging by the sales statistics and customer reviews, such equipment is indeed very effective and it will not be difficult to find a use for it. Such equipment is able to easily perform even the most complex functions, and do it very quickly.
It may seem to many that the design of a vacuum press is not particularly reliable. There are a considerable number of reasons for this, the main of which can be called its not quite presentable appearance. But still it is worth saying that in this design all its elements are purely in their place, which actually allows the device to be used with such efficiency.
The main elements of a vacuum press:
- Carriage - this element can be called a kind of adapter for the interaction of all elements of the system. Many consider this element to be one of the most important, as it performs a huge amount of work.
- The pneumatic vacuum system is one of the fundamental elements of this system, which is responsible for most of the labor-intensive tasks. Often, we are talking about the qualitative distribution of pressure in all directions of this device. This is what allows you to create a high vacuum level.
- Desktop - a certain number of devices can be attributed to this element. All of them, although not so significant, still make a considerable contribution to the overall success of the device.
Above we have listed only the most obvious components. vacuum system that can be seen at a glance. But it is worth remembering that inside such a system there are still a huge number of other elements. Although they are less noticeable, their role in the overall workflow is also very impressive.
The vacuum press is divided into two main categories:
- semi-automatic
- Auto
If the semi-automatic principle of operation implies a certain amount of human assistance, then the automatic one does all the operations on its own. But still, at the moment, the semi-automatic principle of operation is very popular.
But to say something about this is definitely very problematic. After all, everyone has their own tasks that need to be solved. But which press is best suited for this, only you can determine.
Membrane vacuum press
This type of vacuum press is intended for use exclusively in the furniture industry. The main reason for this is the principle of operation of the device, which is designed exclusively for the furniture industry. Diaphragm-vacuum pumps come on sale in a variety of configurations. It all depends on how expensive the option is chosen by the user, and how big the task is.
If we talk about the most significant differences between membrane-vacuum pumps, then they simply do not exist. The only thing is more compact dimensions and higher specifications. Concerning appearance devices, there are no differences in this regard. Many at this stage are sure that very soon this category of presses will break out completely. new level because it has the most potential.
Now, as an example, we will consider the most compact and versatile version of a vacuum press:
Vacuum membrane press VPR-3000 is one of the best models membrane-vacuum presses in the middle price range. Many users at this stage prefer to purchase this particular vacuum pump model. The reason for this can be attributed to the high level of productivity and quality of the vacuum press.
