The most affordable entry to Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) production, Swiss-made Woodtec vacuum presses are proven worldwide. For more than 10 years companies around the globe have been producing large panels with the Woodtec vacuum press technology, with around 40 machines installed. The advantages are attractive:
You can make elements with different sizes, shapes & thicknesses, simultaneously. You can process whatever materials your customers want.
In contrast to other pressing methods, the assembly and pressing of the panels are carried out on the same area, which saves half the space of other construction methods.
Thanks to vacuum the material and running costs of a press can be minimised. Also, the production is very energy efficient, and any wear is negligible.
Vacuum press beds can be added to accommodate future growth, utilising the same gluing gantry.
The atmospheric pressure is only exerted on the panel and never on the press body, which therefore is not distorted and keeps its perfectly flat surface.
