Automatic Pitch Pocket Plugging Machine - HGF310
HGF310 at a Glance:
Automatic plugging of pitch pockets with pitch pocket plugs, sice G2
Short cycle time of 3.5 s
Simple and trouble-free operation
Perfect repair of wood defects
Optimum wood refining with minimal effort
Workpiece clamping by lowering the unit
With the HGF310, we have developed an automatic pitch pocket plugging machine that perfectly repairs damaged areas in wooden workpieces, regardless of whether they are pitch pockets, cracks or damaged edges. The entire work process, from milling out the damaged area to pressing in the pitch pocket plug, takes place in just one clamping operation.
The HGF310 works with workpiece clamping by lowering the unit. The advantage of this method: The height of the working table is not changed; the operating height always remains constant, regardless of the workpiece height. This also allows problem-free processing of long workpieces. Both the clamping stroke and the workpiece thickness compensation are performed from above. For this purpose, the processing slide (incl. drilling and milling unit, glue injection device and feed cylinders) is lowered.
The pitch pocket plugs are stored as bulk material in the spiral conveyor (1200 - 1400 pieces) and are automatically fed, separated and pressed in at the end of a work cycle. As soon as the pitch pocket plug is positioned in the pressing station, the 3.5 second work cycle can begin:
1. Clamping of workpiece
2. Milling-out defect
3. Injection of glue (continuous dosing of glue volume possible)
4. Pressing-in of pitch pocket plug
5. Release of workpiece
At the end of each cycle, a new pitch pocket plug is already prepared in the press-fit station.

Target light
The line laser is used to optimally target the wood defect or pitch pocket. This places the defect on the center line of the cutter for it to be completely replaced by the pitch pocket plug.
Workspace light
Even in poor lighting conditions, the LED workspace light guarantees illumination of the working area.
