The conferencewill be held under the patronage of UAE Ministry of Climate Change & Environment and will discuss the potential of forests, share new technologies and renewable products, exhibit solutions in the timber industry, and call on governments, civil society, and the private sector to promote investment in forests.

Through a memorandum signed with Dubai WoodShow, ATIBT will set up headquarters in Dubai to oversee preparations for the event until its commencement in 2017. Over the last 25 years, ATIBT has been organizing a forum for every two years either in a developing country or an importing country with the aim of promoting the sustainable, ethical and legal trade of tropical timber as a natural and renewable resource.

Dawood Al Shezawi, Chairman, Strategic Marketing & Exhibitions, organizers of Dubai WoodShow says: “Sustainability is the future of this industry. The ATIBT Conference is key for discussing initiatives, which will help the socio-economic development

of timber producing countries.As the Middle East’s leading platform for wood and woodworking machinery, DWS takes pride in hosting this forum,which will be a milestone for the wood industry in the region.”

In recent years, ATIBThas become a key partner for various timber stakeholders as well as European governmental institutions, playing a crucial role in the implementation of international programs.

Al Shezawi added: “We anticipate that the inaugural edition of the conference will attract participation from prominent countries and decision makers in the internal wood industry.”

ATIBT was founded in 1951,prompted by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).

In 2017, The Dubai WoodShow exhibition is set to acquire a space of 15000 sq. m - larger than its previous edition, and will enable traders,

The three-day conference will be held just before the 12th edition of DWS

manufacturers, suppliers and dealers with ample opportunities to showcase their products, innovative technologies, production scenarios and large-scale machinery.

Weinig InTech 2016: Paving the way for the future with W4.0 Digital

The Weinig Group can look

back on another successful

InTech, the company’s

traditional in - house

trade fair. Around 1,000

customers from 32 countries accepted

the invitation to Tauberbischofsheim to

gather information and gain inspiration

for new investments. Weinig presented

its complete range covering the

entire value chain in solid wood

processing over more than 4,000 m2

and underlined its leading position in

Industry 4.0, a key issue for the future,

with W4.0 Digital technologies. A total

of 30 machines and systems were sold

across the group. The order volume

Machine monitoring and predictive

maintenance are further key issues

covered by Weinig, particularly via its

innovative “Service app”. In addition,

in “Millvision”, Weinig provides a high-

performance solution for furniture

production. Group company Holz-

Her offers an attractive concept in

the cutting of panels with the “smart

workshop”. All of these systems

target “maximum transparency of

processes”, as Chief Sales Officer

Gregor Baumbusch explained. The

most important thing, he stressed, is

to “achieve improvements in terms of

costs, availability and resources for

customers while keeping operation as

was significantly higher than the

previous InTech in 2014. At the press

conference on the eve of the in-house

trade fair, CEO Wolfgang Pöschl also

reported on the pleasing growth of the

Weinig Group.

The mix of live demonstrations and

practical information so popular with

our customers once again shaped the

agenda at the 22nd InTech. A central

theme was digitization of production,

for which Weinig has devel-oped an

extensive portfolio of solutions. These

range from “System Plus” for planing

and profiling and “OptiPal” for cutting

to “Fencon” and “master computer

technology” for window production.

simple as possible.” The

requirements placed on businesses

by Industry 4.0 were illustrated by

Prof. Dr. Hube in his accompanying

presentation, which drew an interested

crowd on every day of the in-house

trade fair. “Data is the fuel of the 21st

century,” stated the economist. He

believes this development applies not

only to components of production

technology but to all processes in the

compa-ny. In the first instance, he

recommended a careful review of the

com-pany’s readiness for the major

challenge before commencing with the

first pilot projects.

Besides the central theme of

“digitization of production”, the

Product Unit Planing and Profiling

was in particular demand from visitors

to InTech 2016. A number of orders

were taken for the Powermat 2400

moulder among other models. The

Weinig “Classic Shop” with its wide

range of pre-owned machines was

also able to secure a gratifying order

tally. The presentations from Weinig

Concept, currently enjoying great

success in the market with complete

system solutions, also drew significant

atten-tion. The numerous innovations

at InTech included the OptiCut S60

wflex+ cutting system for fully-

automated length and width cutting

in a single work stage, the enhanced

ProfiPress T Next Generation gluing

press and four-sided contour milling.

The innovation sees Weinig transfer a

typical processing center application to

a profiling machine. Visitors were also

able to witness complete customer

systems in action including, for the

first time, furniture production on the

Conturex system. Dem-onstration of

complex installations will be made

possible by the integra-tion of the

assembly halls into the exhibition

space. “A great opportunity for

InTech,” underlined Wolfgang Pöschl.

On the eve of InTech, the CEO

joined Chief Sales Officer Gregor

Baum-busch, Chief Financial Officer

Gerald Schmidt and the product unit

directors to answer questions from

30 members of the trade press. One

recurring theme was the company’s

financial figures. Accordingly, the

group expects to achieve a turnover

of €380m for the current year. This

represents an increase of 6% year on

year for the world market leader in

machines and systems for solid wood

and panel processing. “On the whole

pleasing growth, which we currently

expect to continue next year,” said

Wolfgang Pöschl in closing.

TECHNOLOGY

GreCon Density Profile Measuring System STENOGRAPH now even more efficient and easier to maintain

Last week GreCon had introduced the new raw

density profile measuring system STENOGRAPH at

the IWF 2016 fair in Atlanta (USA). The new GreCon

STENOGRAPH can reliably measure the raw density

profile of MDF panels inline from a thickness of 6 mm

up to a thickness of 42 mm. Thanks to an improved software and

a construction that is even easier to maintain, the STENOGRAPH

that is already established in numerous wood based panel plants

is now even more efficient and robust.

The control unit can be installed at a distance from the

production line. A user-friendly touch panel facilitates the

operation of the system. The visualisation of measured data was

adapted to the layout that is typical of GreCon systems which

makes understanding and interpretation much easier.

The STENOGRAPH is working in a non-contact way and is

usually installed at the press outlet where it measures the raw

density profile in only a few seconds. A focused X-ray penetrates

the moving endless panel at an angle of 45° and is measured in

two positions: a stationary detector determines the transmitted

radiation intensity, a moving detector measures the scattered

radiation. The density-dependent values are combined in such

a way that a density value can be allocated to each point of the

panel cross section.

The raw density profile is one of the central material

characteristics of wood based panels. The STENOGRAPH

provides important information for the specific influence of the

characteristics of wood based panels by reliably measuring the

raw density profile.

GreCon - Innovation is our Tradition - Fagus-

GreConGreten GmbH & Co. KG is a privately held

company located in Alfeld/Hanover, Germany. The GreCon

business unit is the market leader in the development and

manufacturing of fire protection systems and measuring

EGGER Building Products cross the continent

Between August 2015 and November 2016, the EGGER Truck was once again on the road through Europe. More than 4,200 visitors in 19 countries were shown product and services innovations on 96 events days.

The EGGER Truck has been on the road for the wood-based materials manufacturer since 2011. Over the past year, the 33 tonne EGGER showroom-on-wheels has housed building products and corresponding services. “The EGGER Truck allows us necessary and important mobility for our customer care. We visited more than 90 events and were able to provide solid advice regarding EGGER’s products for wood construction, its services, and innovations”, says Carsten Ritterbach, Head of Marketing and Sales EGGER Building Products. The mobile showroom crossed a total of 19 European countries: from Sweden via Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria, to Ukraine and Turkey. The product presentations for retailers, partners and colleges in the EGGER Truck went smoothly, but the same could not always be said for the 41,800km trip.

The EGGER Truck visited a total of 96 events, where the showroom presented the diverse range of EGGER Building Products with OSB, DHF, and timber. Included on the truck was the EGGER product wall with the entire portfolio and the illustrative environmental cycle. The wood-based materials manufacturer included the EGGER Ergo Board. This versatile

and ergonomic construction board, developed especially for drywall constructions and interiors, expands the range of building products. Thanks to its low weight of 11 kilograms, mounting is easy and fast. Due to its high structural strength and the formaldehyde-free resin, the EGGER Ergo Board is a great wood-based material for interior applications.

The wood-based materials manufacturer also included a new outdoor product: EGGER Thermodecking - a thermo-treated decking board made of sdomestic pine. No chemicals are used for the treatment, just heat, steam, and water. This significantly diminishes vulnerability to insects and fungi, and the life cycle of the boards reaches 15 to 25 years.

The information on offer in the EGGER Truck was complemented with the services from the EGGER Building Products segment. The Planning Handbook contains all important information regarding the planning and use of products as well as the revised Construction Catalogue. The “EGGER Construction Catalogue” app underwent an update and now offers users even more advantages. The app, which is now available in German, English, Italian, Czech, Hungarian, Romanian and Russian, includes all the configurations and construction details from the EGGER Construction Catalogue as 3D renderings. There is also additional information for fire protection and sound and heat insulation.

The EGGER Truck has covered more than 41,000 kilometres on the road through Europe.

Making of Modular Furniture on Small Scale A practical Guide for Small Scale Furniture Manufacturer and Interior Designers

When it comes to produce modular furniture for a medium size project then the main worry is the quality, sturdiness and the delivery schedule. Most of the Interior design firms are making Modular furniture as per customer designs and they are always in lookout how they can produce it faster with assured quality. They want to have a setup that can meet their requirements. Few of them also need to make the furniture on larger scale as their projects are of larger area spreading on few thousand sq. meters. Hence I have decided to write a series of articles for each of the segments depending on quantity and flexibility. This article will cover making of “Modular Furniture on Small scale”. I will strive to present these articles, which should serve as a practical guide to small, medium and Industrial scale manufacturers.

machines and excellent factory setup.

Ultimately this ends up in to financial

crises. The main reason for this situation

is the attitude towards quality control

and wrong selection of equipment.

The machines are of good quality but

the reasons for this situation are as

mentioned below.

• Wrong selection of machinery

• Balancing of operations.

• Poor maintenance of tooling.

• Lack of precision

• Selection of hardware.

In this article we will consider Making

It is observed that many manufacturers of Modular furniture have set up units with

high-tech machinery available in the market with varying investment budgets. There

are many manufacturers of Modular Furniture and there is a huge competition in the

market in this sector. Unfortunately today many of them are facing the problems of

quality, productivity and uniformity. This is happening in spite of having very good

of Modular Furniture on Small Scale for medium batch production. This setup will

need an investment that can range from Half a million to 1 million US$ depending

upon the source of the equipment you choose. In the market machines are available

from Hobby grade to professional to industrial grade. The hobby grade machines /

equipment, if used for longer working hours with heavy load conditions, will lose their

accuracy. Hence we see many users having a couple of burned equipment in their

factory. Hobby equipment are cheaper but if they are used for Industrial application

than that will end up in to work stoppage. For this reason selection of Industrial scale

equipment is suggested for uninterrupted production.

The main operations in making of modular furniture are namely

• Panel cutting,

• Edge banding

• Boring.

We will consider the Basic Industrial Grade Machines required for Small

Scale Furniture Manufacturing.

Panel Cutting

Important criteria’s while selecting the Panel Saw: Panel cutting is done using a panel saw or Beam saw depending up on the no of

sheets to be cut per shift. For a capacity of 30 to 50 sheets sizing per shift, a good

quality-sliding panel saw is fine. One should check that the slides and the sliding

mechanism should be precise and with auto cleaning mechanism. Ball contacts or

roller contacts are suitable for this. We should understand that the slide should be very

precisely machined all along the length of 2.5 / 3 meters. Also the material used in the

slides should be mechanically stable without any movement or deflection in course of

usage. Many times it is seen that the machine works fine when new, but within few

The second important point is the

scoring blade and it’s positioning. There

are few types of adjustable scoring

blades available in the market. One

this we adjust the width of the cut by

is wobbling cutter block. In this we can

Adjustable Scoring blade

Trapezoidal Scoring blade

When the production capacity is

between 50 sheets to 250 sheets per

shift then a Beam Saw is suitable. For

higher production an in line Beam saw

machine is suggested. In this case two

beam saws are placed in line. The first

machine (wider in width) prepares bars of

required width and the second (smaller in

width) cuts the bars in to required length

making it inline production without any

stoppage.

Important points while

using the Panel Saw

Machine effectively:

The sharpening of the main and

scoring blade is also very important.

Many factories have told me that the

cutting is very good when the saw blade

is new but it is not the same when re-

sharpened. This indicates that the

sharpening is not proper. One should inspect the vendor doing this job of sharpening

and the accuracy of his machine and facilities at his workshop. If the blades are

sharpened in house then one should get the machine checked for accurate working.

It is often seen that the carbide tip’s thickness becomes uneven once the blade is re-

sharpened. The height of the blade also changes from tip to tip. This indicates that the

dividing head of the sharpening machine is not set properly or has some problem. In

case of varying height of tips only few carbide tips are cutting and rest are just moving

without cutting. Hence the load is transferred on few tips resulting in poor finish and

bad cut. Same situation also arises in case of main blade re-sharpening.

Many times it is seen that the saw blade is protruding too much causing wobbling

and burnt marks on panel / wood. To avoid this one should see that only tips of the saw

are protruding out of the panel and should set the blade height accordingly.

Last but not the least; the board should be pressed firmly against the machine bed

near the cutting area. This will result in to a smooth cut.

Edge banding

Various types of Edge banding

Important criteria’s while selecting the Machinery:

Edge banding is the second important process in panel Furniture manufacturing.

This is very crucial as it value addition process in the furniture making. It makes the

furniture of high quality or poor quality. Poor quality edge banding makes the furniture

look cheap ending in to price bargains and losses.

Any good edge-banding machine is fine to produce fine quality product. One should

check the following points while selecting the machine. First and foremost is the quality

of the feeding track, it should transport the work piece smoothly till end of the track

without any vibrations and movement.

COVER STORY

Carriage of edge banding Machine The second factor is the side pressure on the edge that guarantees the thin, uniform

glue line. If this is not good then we will get thick glue line that looks very bad resulting

in a cheap finish.

Side pressure rollers for thin edges

Side pressure rollers for thick edges

The other important factors are

Glue and its temperature. Mostly

good quality imported hot melt

glues are used. One should set the

pot temperature as per specification

of the glue. Any deviation from this

should be avoided.

End cutting is the next

important operations of the edge-

banding machine. The position of

the cut is set with reference to the

edge of the board. This should have

precise adjustment knobs to fine-

tune the end cutting.

Top bottom trimmerTop – bottom trimming is done with

the help of trimmers with copying / tracing wheels that positions the trimmers on the edges. Slight mistake at this stage results in to over trimming or under trimming resulting in to poor finish at the edges. Many times fine dust is sticking on copying wheel resulting in to uneven trimming. Hence periodic cleaning of the copying wheel is necessary.

If one takes care of the points mentioned above then there is no reason why our quality should be inferior to European Furniture.

We can select various options like end rounding, fine trimming, buffing, cleaning, automatic glue feeder, heater at feeding position (pre heat the edge of the board in winter), return conveyer etc. Laser machines are becoming popular because of invisible glue line. Add on laser fittings are also available to upgrade old machines.

Important points while using the Machinery effectively:

Many times we see thicker glue lines or dark glue lines they are due to viscosity of the glue and burnt glue. These are manmade mistakes and can be avoided.

But unfortunately we do not see the same quality of edge banding that we see with Italian or German furniture. This indicates that there is a mistake somewhere. Many times the temperature selected is not correct and due to this glue cannot offer the quality it should.

One should check the sharpness of the saw blades periodically to assure fine cut of the edge band. One should fine-tune the blade position for accurate flush cutting of the edges.

Multi Head Boring machine Single Head Boring machine Important criteria’s while selecting the Machinery:

Boring machineis last and very important operation as the mechanical stability of the furniture is directly depending on the accuracy of the drilling of the holes that accommodate the hardware and fittings of the furniture. One should understand that these machines are called boring machines and not drilling machines. The reason is that very accurate and precise drilling is called boring. Hence Precision is very important in these machines.

CNC Boring Machine CNC Boring Head with multi drills

Boring Machine

One has many options from simple Vertical-horizontal boring machine to Multi head and CNC Boring machines. The accuracy of the boring head is very important in the selection of the machine. Any mistake or compromise in selection of machines will result in to poor product ending up in to rejections and losses.

The machine is provided with guide to drill mirror holes on the opposite side panels to ease the operation. An easy guide is also provided to set the both side fences accurately, this is very important.

The engineering of the machine should be very good and sturdy to assure good results for long time.

Important points while using the Machinery effectively: Most important aspect is the accurate positioning of the work piece. This should be

done with utmost care. Single head machine is fine for smaller batch production. Multi

head machine is suitable for larger batch

production. CNC machine is suitable for

flexible working, but it needs proper care

and maintenance.

The drills should be re-sharpened

from time to time to get good holes.

I have seen two - three years old CNC

machines in very poor condition due to

use of blunt tooling, cheap panel boards,

poor maintenance.

One should check in to the above

points and plan to produce a product of

International Quality and finish. I have

noticed that if manufacturers are using

good machines, good raw material,

good hardware then there should not be

any problem in producing International

Quality and Finish product. What They

need is the attitude and determination

that’s all.

Great success for the 1st International Woodtech Forum organized by MEDEXPO

Having exceeded the expectations of organizers

and participants alike, the Woodtech Forum that

took place in the city of Damietta in Egypt came

to an end. The Forum, which was organized by

MEDEXPO S.A., in collaboration with the

Chamber of Wood Working and Furniture Industries of the area,

established a channel of communication for the promotion of

human and economic relations.

The high level of the 52 exhibitors and supporters, like

AHEC, EPF, EPLF as well as of important equipment

and panel producing companies, like SCM Group, CEFLA,

FANTONI SPA, HAFELE GmbH was combined with a top

quality panel of speakers coming from the sectors of industry,

high tech, design as well as from institutes of research,

certification and market research, and managed to attract more

than 3000 visitors during the two days of the Forum.

Woodtech Forum attracted professionals from the sectors

of wood, furniture making, materials and wood marketing and

design from the city of Damietta, as well as from Cairo and

Alexandria. The 270 scheduled B2B meetings that were

held reveal the interest in closing business deals, which were

actually materialized in the form of commercial transactions in

all sectors of interest.

The visitors showed great interest in the new panels and

surfaces’ technologies, given that the market of panels is

starting to gain not only ground but also the interest of the

Egyptian consumers. The support of the Chamber of Damietta,

of the governor and of the government, in general, was crucial

in resolving technical problems, while equally important was

the contribution of all members of the Wood and Furniture

Association, who perceived the event as an opportunity to

modernize and improve the production. The investment that is

currently being made for the creation of the Damietta Furniture

City that involves the construction of 2000 furniture plants,

creates expectations for a better future.

The next appointment in Damietta has been set for 2017 and

will be far greater in volume, of better quality and very promising

for exhibitors and visitors alike. Already, many of the exhibitors

who took part in this year’s Woodtech Forum have signed up for

2017 and many more who visited the forum have said that their

participation in the next Wood Tech Forum is a given!

at the show are now based on salient

aspects of technology use, giving rise to

completely new display clusters. Visitors,

in particular, will benefit considerably

from this revamped layout plan, which is

designed to make their visit even more

efficient by giving them quick, convenient

access to the themes that matter most to

them.

Exhibitors have given a resounding

“thumbs up” to the new hall layout

scheme, which in some cases has even

led to exhibitors booking more space

for enlarged presentations. Repeat

The Wood-Based Panel Production,

INTERZUM 2017 Provides Momentum for Designers and Architects

From 16 to 19 May 2017, the next interzum event will present a wide variety of innovations for interior design and furniture manufacturing. As the world’s

largest industry event in these fields, the

fair provides a comprehensive overview

of new technologies and design.

With over 1,500 exhibitors from more

than 60 countries presenting their

innovations, interzum is the industry’s

largest event worldwide. More than

65 % of visitors and exhibitors come

from abroad, making interzum the

most international industry fair. At its

2017 edition, alongside the industry’s

big names, plenty of smaller, highly

The desire for individualised design of living spaces is one of the big trends to have been shaping the furniture industry for years. In the search for scope to create individualised designs, the choice of materials for furniture and interiors plays a decisive role today, and will continue to do so in the future. New materials, machining processes and surfaces are being brought to market within ever shorter development cycles. Alongside their variety, the opportunities to combine these different materials are also growing at an exponential rate, so planners and fabricators gain enormous scope to be creative, which allows them to fulfil the most varied of customer wishes. The only difficulty is keeping track of it all. This is where the Piazzas in the “Materials & Nature” segment becomes invaluable with their comprehensive overview of exhibitors’ highlights and coming trends in this segment.So everything that belongs in a real piazza will also be in place at the fair: culinary treats, the exchange of ideas and certainly one or two business transactions.

will be showcasing an

exciting and extraordinarily

wide-ranging mix of new

technologies, materials

and surfaces. As drivers of

innovation and suppliers of the entire interior design industry they are important partners in the development of new products and design trends. interzum is where tomorrow’s trends are created. “Form follows function” is one of the well-known principles in design and these three words encapsulate the relevance of the furniture and interior construction industries’ supplying sections who, with their new ideas and materials, provide the framework for modern furniture design. This fact also explains why interzum is so popular with architects, designers and interior designers. In order to offer this target group something extra in terms of market orientation and information even while still in the run-up to the event, Koelnmesse has created a news blog.
