Plywood Pre Press
Plywood Pre Press — Performance Specifications, Press Tonnage & Tooling Layout
The Plywood Pre Press (Build HSE-412) from HEMSUN is built for continuous industrial forming of pre-pressed plywood veneer stacks. Engineered with precision platen parallelism, variable pump hydraulics, recipe memory touchscreen controls, and full on-site commissioning support.
Applications
- High-volume hot pressing of pre-pressed plywood veneer stacks for plywood and wood panel processing plants (Ref: APP-7612).
- Multi-daylight hydraulic consolidation with synchronized platen heating and automated loading shuttles.
- Thermal bonding of resin-coated veneers under precise temperature and pressure curves.
- Turnkey installation for panel manufacturers with complete hydraulic power pack, boiler piping, and FAT certification.
How this press is built
The Plywood Pre Press (configured under build tag HSE-712) is engineered at our Dahegam manufacturing facility for precision forming of pre-pressed plywood veneer stacks within a Standard 8' × 4' up to 13' × 4' multi-daylight panel envelope work envelope. Operating at a calibrated pressing force of 699 Ton, the hydraulic manifold incorporates a variable-displacement piston pump paired with proportional pressure modulation to govern rapid downward approach (up to 120 mm/s), smooth final compaction (5–12 mm/s), and a controlled pressure hold of 55 seconds under full tonnage. Stepped hydraulic decompression avoids sudden fluid shock, preventing internal cleavage lines from developing within fragile green compacts before lower-cylinder soft ejection occurs.
Material behaviour under compaction
The press frame and stroke geometry are specifically matched to timber veneers, core sheets, resin-glued wood plies & laminates characteristics, accommodating loose powder volumetric compression up to 4:1. High structural rigidity minimizes frame flexing under full load, preventing density variations that could otherwise cause out-of-round distortion during high-temperature coalescing.
Tooling and die design
The press table is engineered for rapid die clamping with reinforced bolster plates. In-house manufactured punch and die sets for pre-pressed plywood veneer stacks utilize through-hardened tool steel with micro-honed surfaces to eliminate wall drag during ejection.
Sizing and machine selection
To evaluate the Plywood Pre Press for your workshop, share part 2D/3D drawings, resin bulk compressibility, and power supply standards. We configure the 699 Ton press frame, platen daylight, and ejector stroke to meet your specific manufacturing targets.
Quality checks and inspection
Each press is tested against strict quality standards at our Dahegam facility: laser alignment of bolsters, continuous pressure dwell cycling, and green compact density verification.
Installation and commissioning
Documentation provided includes foundation anchoring plans, electrical circuit schematics, and hydraulic piping layouts. HEMSUN service personnel travel worldwide for machine positioning, hydraulic oil charging, and staff training.
Export packing and lead time
Manufactured to global standards, the machine is configured for international industrial electrical standards (415V/50Hz). Protective barrier wrapping and heavy seaworthy wooden boxing protect equipment during export shipping from Gujarat.
Maintenance and spare parts
The press features low-maintenance engineering with easily accessible filter elements, centralized lubrication lines, and standard industrial valves. Spare parts and seal kits ship directly from our works.
Safety and guarding
Comprehensive safety equipment includes dual optical light curtains, synchronized two-hand pushbuttons, hydraulic safety drop valves, and protective side mesh panels.
