PROGRAM is a high-capacity 4 sided planer moulder, designed to meet specific requirements in industrial woodworking: heavy workloads without interruptions, large pieces (as wooden beams, for example).
This model meets all needs, adopting mechanical and technological innovations that make it extremely performing in the production results, with a new version that now reaches a working width of 300 mm (with horizontal spindles of 50 mm diameter) and features the unit handling on linear guides and ball runner blocks.
The reliability of the machine (for stability and wear resistance without maintenance) is guaranteed by the worktables in Hardox HB400 (top-of-the-range material) and the drive gearboxes.
The PROGRAM model in all its 13 versions is ideal for not only straightening/planing and moulding operations, but also for processing beams.
It is possible to work at a maximum width of 300 mm.
The settings are varied and can have up to 8 spindles, and thanks to the 90 mm range of the vertical spindles the machine can be equipped with different tools so as to switch between a production process and another in a short time.
WOODWORKING MAX 300x180
The PROGRAM model has been designed and produced to work 300 mm wide wood and a height of 180 mm, with the optional possibility to extend the height to 200 mm.
This means that even wooden beams can be machined.
STURDY STRUCTURE
The base and frame structure is solid, stable and anti-vibration, to the extent that it can guarantee effortless working of wooden beams.
HEAVY WORKLOADS
Due to the fact that the machine is designed to resist heavy workloads, it has been fitted with a Hardox HB400 worktable, made of a material that resists even the most significant strain. It is an extremely long-lasting material with a very low risk of breakage.
INSTANT TOOL REPLACEMENT
Instant setting to change tools with a different diameter and with the optional possibility of PLC control.
MAXIMUM SAFETY (ACCORDING TO THE UE)
The machine meets all the safety requirements from the European Union.
TESTING AND TRIALS PRIOR TO DELIVERY
Before we deliver the machine to the customer, it is tested and tried in detail, even using the customer’s tools (if supplied).
IN-HOUSE MANUFACTURING OF THE MACHINE BODY
The PROGRAM body and a large number of its small parts are manufactured directly at our headquarters which guarantee a totally Made in Italy product.
For this purpose, some Metalstar 2000 areas have been setup to work in synergy with Futura Woodmac with its sheet metal laser cutting-, welding- and numeric control milling machines departments.
QUALITY AT VERY COMPETITIVE PRICES
The in-house production of the structure, while allowing for a detailed and all-round control of the machine’s quality, also reduces manufacturing costs, which make the end sale price highly competitive.
DRIVE GEARBOXES FOR WORKPIECE CONVEYING
Workpieces are conveyed by oil-bath gearboxes with cardan-shaft drives.
90 mm VERTICAL SHAFT AXIS STROKE
The vertical shafts have a 90 mm axial stroke under the worktable, with a milling cutter with max. 160 mm diameter.
The maximum working sections are 300 mm in width (minimum 25 mm, optional 15 mm) and 180 mm in height (minimum 10 mm, optional 200 mm).
The top of range Hardox worktable, with its solidity and perfect grip, guarantees excellent wear resistance with very low risks of breakage.
It is the ideal choice for high-production in uninterrupted lines.
All the everyday activities (from machine setting to checking the end piece) are made easier by the new mobile console, designed for maximum efficiency by our technical department.
The drive system is extremely reliable over time and is maintenance-free thanks to its sturdiness and resistance.
Its cardan-shaft oil-bath drive gearboxes ensure a perfect finishing with no vibrations on wood.
The presence of the gearmotor ensures a stepless production, even under heavy working conditions.
Furthermore, by applying high reduction ratios, a higher motor performance reduces power consumptions resulting in reduced machining costs.
We believe in the application of new technologies in providing greater efficiency.
Innovation is key to achieving better performance in terms of quality and production times.
On the Program machine, you can find state-of-the-art handling technologies – i.e. linear guides and ball runner blocks – which give instant and greater advantages with respect to that of competitors.
The Program machine has been designed with genuine state-of-the-art handling technologies, like the presser in the 3rd unit with movement on the linear guides and ball runner blocks with the addition of rubber pressure elements horizontally positioned to keep the wood in position.
The same handling system has been used for upper shaft and the connected drive unit upstroke and downstroke.
Linear guides, with their ball runner blocks – if any – move the second upper shaft.
Thanks to their ribbed structure, the Poly-V belts allow for a very compact drive even in heavy workload conditions.
The pulleys are perfectly coupled to belt grooves, also ensuring absence of vibrations and noiseless performance.
Workpiece feeding, even in case of difficult wood machining, is however guaranteed by an air-cushion worktable, fitted with 3 rows of holes that can be activated individually, as required.
In combination with air cushioning, workpiece conveying can be improved by an optional air and oil atomisation system.
The Program machine can be fitted with 110 mm to 200 mm diameter tools.
The vertical shafts’ axis stroke is of 90 mm to machine a higher number of profiles and and allow a rapid work change.
The maximum work sections are 300 mm in width and 180 mm in height (200 mm as an option).
The minimum work sections are 25 mm in width (15 mm optional) and 10 mm in height.
The production of the Program machine includes, as a standard, the mechanical quality control as well as its testing – even with tools supplied by the customer.
Sophisticated size control tools verify every tolerance and critical dimension, to eliminate any problems or failure risks during assembly.
Machining becomes intuitive and instant via the colour modern touch screen of the PLC – graphics designed in detail by our staff. This automatically controls the main positions.
This control includes:
(optional piece)
The Program machine comes with a state-of-the-art technology.
As an option, you can choose among a 7, 10 or 15 inches Touch Screen.
Easy and fast to program, you will save time and reduce any risk of errors during the setup steps.
You will have the possibility to control a higher number of axes, thus customising your operator interface.
(optional piece)
The mobile working width option is extremely useful when working with different unfinished material widths.
The device records sizes automatically transmitting it them to the plc that will then position the shaft on the correct measurement value.
The system is driven by a ball-screw system and can be switched off with a simple click.
(optional piece)
Via a couple of pushbuttons – as a cheaper alternative to the PLC – you can easily set the working width and height. One is for the shaft quick handling, and the other is for a tenth of a millimetre positioning.
