25 Years of HOMAG Window Production Solutions - Concepts for automated production since 1999

step by step The first HOMAG machine for the production of individual window parts, in this case in particular for wood-aluminum windows, was a profiLine BOF 311/40/PM. A machine length of 4.80 m provided [...] such as profile machining, drilling for handle slide holes, corner and shear bearing drilling, dowel hole drilling or milling for strike plates and shears. This generated high machine efficiency thanks [...] thanks to automated complete machining. Non-productive time for this machining could be used by the operator for other value-adding activities. The profiLine BOF 311/40/PM in 1999 was therefore the first complete

"For example, the V-500 and H-600 drilling programs also run directly on the machines with no problems [...] play The same applies to the Danube group, which includes four edge machines, two of which were supplied by HOMAG. While the older machine processes only thin edges, the other edges are processed using laser [...] trimming at right angles. "We searched for years until we found the machine that optimally fits our needs. The EDGETEQ S-500 is just that machine." Always onward, always forward After the edge, selected parts

In conversation with Mr. Venkataramana Gorti at IndiaWood 2020

Another key success factor is the creation of the [...] shown that the profiles can be reduced by a further 10% to obtain an even larger glass area. With wood/aluminum windows, the sash has become so narrow that it disappears behind the aluminum cover. The [...] system. However, producing narrow profiles to allow more daylight in also presents challenges to machine manufacturers and suppliers: How can the narrow profiles be clamped? How can high processing quality
