WEBER is setting new standards in sanding quality with the planetary head. This patented unit guarantees a perfect surface irrespective of the
the direction of the wood grain or the shape of the workpiece. All edges are broken evenly in the throughfeed. 3D surfaces, radii and profiles can also be processed. During the subsequent lacquering process, the wood fibers hardly stand up at all. This leads to paint savings and better surface quality.

A polished surface free of oscillation marks is an outstanding quality feature. WEBER has found the solution for this with CBF technology. It works with a transverse pressure flap belt arranged within the wide belt station. The pressure flaps interrupt the engagement of the abrasive grains and thus avoid the undesirable oscillating sanding marks of the sanding belt. The result: The surface is smooth and even. The flap belt runs without control, maintains the full tolerance compensation of the link pressure beam, wears evenly and is inexpensive to replace.

Another advantage of CBF technology is that, in contrast to classic cross-sanding, one grit level can be skipped. This means that you can achieve particularly fine sanding results with our system without compromising on quality.

Uniform sanding pressure on the edge and surface is a prerequisite for good sanding results. WEBER's solution: Freely movable pressure pieces, which are firmly connected to the sanding lamella, always automatically position themselves flat against the sanding belt; the required even pressure distribution on longitudinal and transverse edges is achieved automatically. Interfering lateral forces on the adjusting cylinders are avoided. The arrangement of the pressure pieces on the sanding lamella eliminates the need for additional guides that are susceptible to contamination, and the system is completely maintenance-free. In addition, certain areas can be processed with different sanding pressures. This is a major advantage when sanding between coats of paint, for example, where paint material builds up more on the edges during certain application processes.

Flexibility is becoming increasingly important. This is why WEBER X-Sanding offers all sanding processes in one sanding station. The sanding station can be easily converted from wide belt to cross belt. It can therefore be alternately calibrated, sanded lengthwise, crosswise or with WEBER CBF technology. As today's requirements for different surfaces and lacquers demand different sequences of cross and longitudinal sanding, this new technology can easily respond to this. It enables longitudinal or transverse final sanding, thus saving an additional processing station.
