Rotoles System

START MILLING The ROTOLES face milling method offers improved quality of machining compared to conventional planning: no planer marks, higher calibrating precision, perfect machining of wood knots and their edges, no deformation of structure therefore smooth and open pore surface. These features present significant advantages for certain following processing steps, for instance lower consumption of glue for glulam beams, panels and parquet, or better penetration of wood stain, oil or wax into the wood structure. INNOVATIVE o POWERFUL o DURABLE The cutting knives of the ROTOLES machines are industrially manufactured 'cemented carbide turnover knives'. Special PCD diamond tipped exchangeable tools are also available for applications, where extreme durability is required. The disposable tips are fixed on a quickly exchangeable holder, thus allowing very short down time for retooling. Additional time saving method on high speed machines are the tooling segments, which are equipped with preset new knife holders. The holders can be exchanged outside of the machine, only a lower number of segments have to be exchanged on the machine itself.

Rotoles System Rotoles System is a new method in woodworking offering better economic effects. No progress means regression. This rule also applies to technologies, which were believed to be at a peak of their development. An example of that is alsor^fie^%ofJdWii^etpatented ROTOLES SYSTEM for front milling of wood, wooden products, plastics and light alloys United States Patent Number Main Principle of Working with Rotoles Systeirfe/-,^ Rotor with bearings Fixed plate (guiding plate) Pressing shoe Chip removal Fixed plate (guiding plate] Rotor with bearings Double- and multi-side...

Multi-sided milling machines - moulders Depending on purpose, the wood can be calibrated on two or four sides with the Rotoles system, further processing is made by conventional spindles in various arrangements. Feed speed "up to" (m/min): 30 Feed speed "up to" (m/min): 60 Rotoles Advantages Working with the Rotoles System Straightness of Planing Surface Conventional Planing Rotoles System No shaft marks, perfectly flat surface. Curved guiding across the tool No planer marks on both ends of a woodpiece.

Surface Straightness Independend Rotoles System Conventional Planing Assymetrical knife wear or damage One worn out knife does not affect the surface regularity, because each cut is overlapped in width and length by the following knives. Planing knife result in uneven surface Excellent machining of wood knots and their edges without tear out. Rotoles High Speed Multi-side calibrating milling machines A heavy-duty four-side combined calibrating milling machine with Rotoles system, vertical spindles, groove saw and a cleaning brush; for demanding calibration of glulam laminations.

Rotoles machines with roll feed A precutter machines the edge of the workpiece to prevent tear out. Hjgn precjSjon 0f horizontal planing is achieved by a very short distance between the two rotors. Open Pore Surface Conventional Planing - Deformation of cell structure - Crystalized resin Closed cell structure Poor agglutination Rotoles System - No deformation of cell structure Open cell structure Stronger joint Reduced consumption of glue

Rotoles Tools The ROTOLES tools (rotary heads) are mounted parallel to the machining surface. On multi-side machines, rotary heads are positioned directly above each other, resp. directly opposed for vertical machining. A number of single cutting knife plates arranged around the rim of the rotor enable very small chip thickness from 0,1 to 0,5 mm per knife. The machining is steady and smooth due to lower cutting force and pressure from a single knife against the workpiece. The result is a perfectly machined surface of a workpiece. The tool turns in horizontal level from left to right and...

Rotoles machines with band or chain feed Pressure segments before the top rotor hold down the workpiece. A cleaning brush sweeps the sureface before final processing. A feeding chain with spring loaded pins will transport concave or pieces with variable thicknes reliably over The friction between rubber conveyor and workpiece secures a perfect feed motion. The combined sanding unit with a contact roller and a sanding shoe is an optimal solution for precise and fast changeover between calibrating and finishing operation.
