TRC Panel

Fully automated repair of large panels and boards

TRC Panel is a modular platform for fully automatic repair of large panels and boards.

Repair with several injection units. The repair process starts with the board being scanned. The scanner scans the entire board in one sweep. As soon as it is finished, it sends the data to the injection units and the defects are repaired in a high-precision process. Only the volume calculated by the scanner is filled into the crack or knothole; the surrounding grain of the wood is not processed.

The repairs can be made in various material colors. Remote technical support of the TRC system is available via the internet.

Wood dimensions

Min. / max. length	900 mm / 3500 mm (2 units), 900 mm / 2600 mm (3 units)
Min. / max. width	650 mm / 1300 mm
Min. / max. thickness	16 mm / 45 mm

Turning unit

Once the front of the board or panel is completed, the turning unit turns it 180° and the back undergoes the same process.

Transfer

After the board has been scanned, it is transported onward via a slider in the machining table so that the defects can be processed by the repair unit. This step significantly increases the system's capacity as one board is being repaired while the next is being scanned.

Double loading

As well as machining individual panels and boards, two short boards with a length of around 900 mm to 1500 mm can be placed on the machining table, scanned, and processed in a single step. This increases capacity for short boards.

Control scan

Once the boards have been repaired, the scan is repeated to check the result of the repair.

Number of repair units

The number of repair units significantly affects the system capacity and must be tailored to the rustic nature of the goods and the subsequent process steps.

Handling system

The board is taken from the stack, repaired, and restacked. Once a board or panel stack has been completely processed, the system stops, and the repaired stack can be replaced by a new stack.

Random length

The "Random Length" function allows boards of different lengths to be processed directly one after another without the need for any adjustment.

Options

In order for us to supply you with the perfect system for your capacity, repair, material flow, and other requirements, we make use of a modular system with the following options and/or configurations:

Number of repair units: two injection units or three injection units

Filling material: Thermoplastic (TH) or organic (OR)

Handling system: Turning unit (for repair on both sides) or onward transport

Process flow: Transfer (scan and repair simultaneously or scan and repair one after the other), double loading, random length or control scan
