Narrow Plate Feeder Woodworking Machinery Spare Edge Banding Machine Spare Part

Product Description

Looking for the feeder that keeps long and narrow boards moving through an edge bander instead of stalling at the fence? This narrow plate feeder is the panel feeding unit listed for woodworking edge banding machines, 550 × 202 × 137 mm over its body. It runs a small steel ball slide rail, an enlarged body for long and narrow boards, rubber pad anti-collision stops and a tension spring that holds it onto the board. Origin Foshan, China. Price quoted on request.

Long boards and narrow strips are where a plate feeder gives trouble: the panel skews on its way into the glue pot, a short feeder body cannot hold a narrow strip square, and a carriage that slams its end stops wears on the rail. All three end up as an opened glue line.

This narrow plate feeder is the panel feeding unit listed for woodworking edge banding machines, built with an enlarged body for long and narrow boards. The body measures 550 × 202 × 137 mm (55 × 20.2 × 13.7 cm, L × W × H). It is a spare part, so it replaces the worn feeder on an existing station.

The carriage runs on a small steel ball slide rail, so its travel is rolling contact rather than sliding contact — the detail that stops a feeder sticking part-way through a pass. Left and right movement is stopped by rubber pads, so the impact is taken by the pad and not by the edge of the feeder body.

A tension spring holds the unit against the board through the board passing process, so contact runs along the board instead of only at the entry. Origin is Foshan, China. Price is quoted on request. Every figure here comes from the part's product data.

Product Features

Each item below is the part as its product data describes it.

• Enlarged body for long and narrow boards — The body is 550 × 202 × 137 mm, elongated for long or narrow panels instead of a short block.
• Small steel ball slide rail — The carriage rides a ball slide rail, so it rolls instead of slides; friction is what lets a feeder stick mid-pass.
• Rubber pad anti-collision stop — Rubber pads absorb the stop at each end of the left and right movement, so the impact is taken by the pad, not the feeder edge.
• Tension spring board contact — A tension spring keeps the unit pressed onto the board during the board passing process, holding contact along the pass.
• Panel feeding application — Listed for feeding panels on woodworking edge banding machines, as the replacement for the feeder on the station.
• Spare-part format — Supplied as an edge banding machine spare part for the existing feeder position, so the glue pot and trimming units stay at their settings.
• Dimensions in checking order — 55 × 20.2 × 13.7 cm written length, width, height, so the three figures come off the old unit with a tape measure.
• Origin Foshan — Made in Foshan, China, the woodworking machinery base this spare parts range ships from.

Product Parameters

Product Advantages

Without a spare feeder you have two choices: run a carriage that sticks, or take the station out of the line.

• Long boards stop being the awkward job. A 550 mm body carries the panel further than a short feeder — the point of the enlarged design on long and narrow boards.
• Sticking becomes one less reason to stop. The small steel ball slide rail turns carriage travel into rolling contact, so a pass does not stall half-way through.
• End stops stop damaging the feeder. Rubber pads take the contact at each end of the left and right movement, so the impact lands on the pad, not the feeder edge.
• The board stays held along its length. A tension spring presses the unit onto the board during the pass, so a long panel is still held past the entry.
• Repair instead of re-specify. It is a spare part for the feeder position, so the glue pot, trimming units and pressure rollers stay at the settings the machine runs.
• Checking the fit takes a tape measure. 55 × 20.2 × 13.7 cm in length, width, height order — three checks on the old unit settle the fit before you order.
• Narrow strips get the support they were missing. A feeder built for narrow boards holds the strip square into the glue line, where a narrow board usually tilts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this narrow plate feeder fit my edge banding machine?

Yes, if the feeder position on your machine takes a unit measuring 550 × 202 × 137 mm. Measure the old feeder across length, width and height, compare the three figures, and the fit is settled before you order; if one of them differs, send the dimensions instead and the matching unit is quoted from them.

What are the 55 × 20.2 × 13.7 cm measured across?

Length, width and height, in that order, over the feeder body. That is 550 mm long, 202 mm wide and 137 mm high, so a tape measure on the old unit gives you the same three numbers to compare against.

Which boards is it meant for?

Long and narrow boards. The design is enlarged specifically for long and narrow panels, which is the case where a short feeder body leaves the strip unsupported on its way into the glue line.

My feeder keeps sticking part-way through a pass — does this one solve that?

It is the design answer to that fault. The carriage rides a small steel ball slide rail, so travel is rolling contact instead of sliding contact, and rolling contact is what stops a feeder binding part-way through a pass.

What do the rubber pads actually protect?

The feeder edge, at the ends of its left and right movement. The rubber pad anti-collision design means the pad takes the contact instead of the edge of the feeder body being knocked against its stop.

How is the board held while it passes the feeder?

By a tension spring. It presses the unit onto the board during the board passing process, so contact is maintained along the board rather than only at the point where the board enters.

Do I have to change the glue pot or the trimming units to fit it?

No. It is supplied as a spare part for the feeder position, so it replaces the worn feeder on the station and the glue pot, trimming units and pressure rollers stay at the settings they already run.

What does it cost, and how do I order the right one?

Price is quoted on request, against the quantity you need. Quote the part reference 41710621 and the size 55 × 20.2 × 13.7 cm with your enquiry, and the same combination is used on the next order so the second unit matches the first.
