Especially with energy generation and materialpreparation. For this reason our scope of suppliesalso includes single components and completesystems to generate the heat that is requiredduring the production process in panel plants.Energy is provided by different media such as hot gas, thermal oil, steam, warm/hot water.Production waste, sanding dust and bio mass are typical examples of fuel.

Dryers and sifters are decisive factors in obtaininga high board quality. Particles and fibers must beprepared to have a constant humidity level andbe sifted to remove unwanted particles such assand, metal pieces, glue knots etc. Different typesof dryers and sifters are used according to theindividual product and production capacity.

Upgoing line capacities and ever increasing environmental requirements ask for economically viable, precise and safe technologies...

Dryers for particles, strands and fibersThe dryers can be heated with different fuels, as well as with gas from a turbine or furnace, depending on the type of plant. Exhaust gas recirculation increases the efficiency. Indirect heating is possible by means of combined power generation/heating or thermal oil heating.Particle and fiber sifters for the removal of• Mineral matter• Metallic contaminants• Coarse particles• Glue knotsGlue preparation and gluing system for particleboard,OSB, OSL, MDF and THDF plants

The following alternatives are available to you:

Flexible, thanks to matured technologies available for all raw materialsSafe by compliance with valid safety regulations such as VDI 3673, spark detectors and deluge systems, plug detectors and automatic sprinkler systemEnvironmentally friendly through use of available residual energy and alternative sources of energyLow emission values

Benefits:

Forming stations and spreading systems

Board properties are mainly determinedby the shape of particles / fibers and theirposition in the formed mat. For this reasonwe offer innovative spreading systems –tuned to

Raw materialsEnd productsPlant capacity

The forming belt, which connects the formingstation, prepress and main press is basicallyidentical for all three press types.Integrated mat scales for constant productweights, trimming, magnet systems and metaldetectors as well as a device for return of rejectmats are already included in the standard version.

Forming stations and spreading systems are decisive for high cost-effectiveness, quality and environment-friendliness

Combined particle spreading systems (wind / mechanical), variants depending on product, performance, surface, accuracy and raw materialMechanical spreading systems for particles, fibers, strands as well as recycled wood depending on product, performance and accuracy.

Benefits:

and decades of experience in building hydraulicpresses to be highly flexible, simple to operate,maintenance-friendly and wear-resistant – pressesthat fulfil all demands put by usually rough production conditions …Our continuous presses are distinguished by highflexibility to cope with production-related changesin panel thickness or width. Very large presses upto 62 m long and 12 ft wide are our speciality. Wehave developed a specific infeed geometry, whichguarantees high reliability at very high productionspeeds, especially in the case of thin fiberboards.Single-daylight or multi-daylight presses are still indemand for small and medium plant capacities orfor OSB plants in North America.

Dieffenbacher forming lines include continuouspre-presses for various products with varying individual pre-compressor lengths and pressuresection. Pre-presses guarantee a safe and smooth transferof the mats at any speed. Patented heating of OSB and LVL by microwave or steam injection for particleboard, MDF, THDF, OSB and OSLincrease the capacity and are an example forsuccessful innovation.

New products open up new markets

Opening up new market potentials secures success in the long run

SCORING POINTS IN DESIGN –

THE MDF BOARD

Excellent machining and application

properties make the MDF board an

economic and future-oriented

substitute of solid lumber. Many

products, especially in the design-

oriented furniture industry would

be unthinkable without using this

high-quality board.

ALTERNATIVE AND ECONOMIC –

OSB

OSB is the economic alternative to

common plywood. Their big variety

of applications has continuously

increased acceptance of these boards

in the market. Dieffenbacher have set

this trend. The first plant was started

up in 1980 already. Nowadays, the

majority of OSB is manufactured in

plants delivered by us.

PRESENT TRENDS –

MDF/THDF THIN BOARD

Thin boards with a thickness

of 2 – 8 mm open up new

applications and markets.

They are given preference in

the manufacture of interior

trims for railroad cars, recreation

vehicles (RV), picture frames,

packing material, furniture and

rear panels, drawer bottoms

as well as shaped or even door

faces.

WELL-TRIED, HIGHLY TOPICAL –

THE PARTICLEBOARD

High quality and universal applicabi-

lity - these are only a few of the

advantages that have made the par-

ticleboard a classic of wood-based

panels.

Dieffenbacher plants have signifi-

cantly contributed to the success

of this high-quality panel.

High uptime and cost-efficiency of

our plants are proverbial.

EXTREMELY LOADABLE LAYER-

BYLAYER – THE LVL BOARD

LVL is made of glued veneer, has

excellent physical properties and

continuous manufacture is the stan-

dard in the plants we deliver. High

strength makes the LVL board a

popular product used for engineered

wood applications.

Success is only possible by early recognition oftrends and quick reaction to changing marketrequirements enabled by flexible technology andinnovative products.For decades, Dieffenbacher has advanced development in panel production by setting new standards.

ECONOMIC SUBSTITUTE OF SOLID

LUMBER – THE OSL BOARD

The OSL-Product (Oriented Strand

Lumber) has a very high bending

strength and can substitute tradi-

tional lumber in many applica-

tions. OSL can now be produced

on a Dieffenbacher CPS-press in

connection with a steam pre-

heater. This very efficient method

of producing OSL reduces the cost

of the product and enables a

wider range of applications.

CUSTOM-MADE DECORATION –

LAMINATION ENHANCEMENT

Cost-effective lamination of

particleboard, MDF, wood-

based materials or plywood

boards is a prerequisite for the

production of low-cost furni-

ture and laminate flooring with

a wide variety of decorations.

Flexible lamination systems

help to satisfy customer

demands quickly and reliably.
