The main features of the K 37

Pre-milling (Whispercut)

The WhisperCut pre-milling system with interchangeable diamond cutter tips ensures maximum tool life (manual height adjustment)
and tear-free milling results due to an oblique cut through the centre of the panel. Two ready-to-use cutter heads guarantee tear-free milling results, even for demanding materials and surfaces.

By simply swapping the diamond cutter tips, this significantly reduces sharpening costs and downtime and no changes to the basic machine settings are required unlike with classic tools. The lightweight aluminium design protects the motors and enhances smooth operation.

The milling depth can be manually adjusted up to 3.0 mm so that you can work to the final dimensions when cutting.

Double motor trim saw system

The stable design of the double motor trim saw unit with linear guides enables precise milling of the front and/or rear workpiece, including for high unit quantities and small workpiece sequences. The cross-cut saws can be adjusted by 12.5° as required. Simply choose the setting via the touchscreen display on the front of the machine.

Protection spraying edge

The additional nozzle sprays the lubricant laterally over the edge banding surface. The wetted edge/film then further transports the lubricant.
This prevents damage and markings due to floating heads/sliding blocks on sensitive edge bands (e.g. acrylic). It also stops the protective film from peeling off the edge band.

AirTronic

Joint-free appearance using hot air technology. Easily switch between EVA, PUR or AirTronic in your edge banding machine without the need for tools and effortless perfect your finished result.

Pre coated edges are symbolically “fused” with your panel materials by means of a high-temperature nozzle to create a homogenous surface that leaves nothing
to be desired. This takes just 3 minutes to heat up and only requires changing the edge channel. By selecting the programme on the display, you can easily store and retrieve different parameters and settings for various suppliers.

Corner rounding unit

The corner rounding optimally prepares you for any challenge when it comes to dealing with the front of the turning heads. Thanks to intelligent programming via the touchscreen display, individual sides and processing settings can be set. Whether it’s the front and/or rear edge, radius or chamfer settings or choosing between an entire side or only the vertical edge, there are no limits here.

The optional, interchangeable motor combined with our quick-change preliminary setup provides a rapid solution when dealing with different edge thicknesses.

Radius profile scraper

Plane impacts or milling traces are smoothed down thanks to even cutting by the radius scraper.
Settings are adjusted at the front of the machine. The upper and lower edge can be independently set.

Equip your machine with the optional multi-radius scraper R2/R1 for a unique finishing result with classic ABS edges and modern, thin edges. Simply choose the setting via the touchscreen display on the front of the machine – no tools required.

Surface scraper

Dynamically stored flat scraper ensures high production quality even for difficult materials. The wide contact surface precisely and gently scans the edge material to ensure consistent quality and removes adhesive residue
and excess edges.

Cleaning station

The two polishing discs free the upper and lower panel from excess sprays, adhesive residue and lighten in the event of edge stress whitening. 2 x 0.18 kW motors, individually adjustable for consistent cleaning results when using various processing technologies.

More Features

Our axis package provides even more comfort. The panel and edge thickness, as well as the joint measurements, can be easily set using the display and the axes operate electro-mechanically. Easily store your settings in the respective programme and precisely repeat them.

The optional glue level sensor for your interchangeable glue pots lets you keep track of things and avoid stoppages and gluing errors. The user is notified of low levels in good time via plain text notifications.

Prior to edging, the spray system casts a fine layer of separating agent over the top and bottom of the workpiece edges.
This prevents any excess adhesive from sticking to the workpiece. This option is recommended if regularly working with PUR adhesives.

  • Ready for operation in just 6 minutes
  • Standard interchangeable glue pots with stop function for rapid
  • change of colour or technology (EVA/PUR)
  • Tool-free change of glue pot
  • Simplified cleaning of glue pot in a matter of minutes
  • Teflon coating for effortless cleaning

A large storage tank for up to 5 kg of granules ensures maximum efficiency.
The glue pots are filled automatically so that even high cycle times can be easily handled without the need for manual filling.

Four solid pressure rollers are spring-loaded and close off the top and bottom edges of the panels to guarantee perfect results for various materials and surfaces. For the 8 mm package, the first roll is powered mechanically to drive the solid wood edge bands.

This combined milling unit allows you to choose between radius / 10° chamfer or flush trimming (combined unit). The standard setting for radius / 10° chamfer is conveniently situated at the front of the machine.

The optional 3-point adjustment allows even more flexible processing for different requirements. Adjustments are instant and reduce downtime to a minimum.

Expand your applications and process different edge thicknesses with greater flexibility thanks to step milling for R2/R1/ chamfer and the second milling station.

Thanks to the second milling station, you can produce various radiuses with greater flexibility. Greater chip weights can be realised thanks to pre-milling and precision milling. A 30° chamfer can also be produced by manually adjusting the unit.

Fully focussed

LED Touchscreen

With the 15-inch touchscreen, you can set up your machine directly from the front – quickly, easily, and with complete clarity. All key data and settings are displayed at a glance, so you always have full control. Up to 40 programs store your preferred settings – repeatable with precision and easily adjustable at any time. The integrated 3D view shows your workpiece realistically from the front and back, allowing you to see the result even before processing begins. You stay in control at all times: Workpiece quantities, running meters, and operating times are clearly displayed and can be assigned directly to your jobs. Clear text messages keep you continuously informed about the machine status – for greater transparency and safety. That means simpler operation – and significantly easier maintenance.

Clear display for easy operation – active states and releases are visualized in real time.

Intuitive, precise, and practical – the clear menu structure makes it easy to set individual processing functions, such as corner rounding.

ECO-Mode

This energy-saving mode is an automatic standby mode that disables all systems. If a workpiece is not fed into the machine for a longer period of time (15 minutes), the machine, including heating of the glue pot system, will automatically switch off. The machine will no longer consume any energy.

The multi-radius scraper allows you to process R2 and R1 radii without having to change the machine settings for flexible processing of different radii. The radius settings can be individually selected or saved as a programme.

This spray system applies the cleaning agent to the top and bottom of the workpiece. Applying the cleaning agent followed by the cleaning station removes any sprays, adhesives and impurities.

The preset interchangeable motor including tool allocation reduces machine set-up time when changing the front head radius. The quick-change preliminary setup allows the motor to be changed quickly without the need for any additional settings.

Allows working with tool sharpening and hinge hole drilling with a milling unit and radius scraper. The settings can be easily changed via the display on the front of the machine. Scanning of the workpieces takes place underneath the panel.

The grooving saw unit reduces the need for subsequent labour-intensive tasks on the milling machine. Use the grooving saw either for processing tongue and groove joints or on the panel for rear-panel grooves (non-combinable). Processing can take place across the entire length of the workpiece or as needed.

The warp-resistant machine base unit enables precise working all year round. Whether mass production of small parts or half-size panels, we guarantee a consistent finish each time you work.

A well-thought-out extraction system, which requires just one central connection point to your extraction system, allows mostly mobile use of your HEBROCK edge banding machine even in small workshops. All inlet and outlets are found on the machine so that it can be moved as needed using our optional trolley for space-consuming work.

Interior machine lighting for clear setup and maintenance of your machine.

Integrated into the machine, it reduces handling steps and setup time – edge material can be changed in under 30 seconds, at ergonomic working height and easily operated even with gloves.

A segmented LED ring indicates whether a new workpiece can be fed directly into the machine, without the need to look at the display. Green means: feed active, machine ready, infeed interlock released. When a work­ piece is fed in and detected, the ring switches off and gradually fills during machining. Yellow signals a warning, red indicates an emergency stop. If the feed is switched off, the ring remains white.

Precise fine-tuning of milling units and the radius scraper during operation – ideal for sensitive real wood veneer and noticeably reduced setup times.

A continuous light strip signals the machine status in real time – clearly visible, directly on the machine. Green indicates operational readiness, white signals standby mode, yellow warns of faults, and red indicates an emergency stop. This allows you to see at a glance when the machine is ready.

Rear drawers and two front access flaps provide space for tools, accessories, and consumables – neatly stored and always within easy reach.

A release agent spray system combined with brushes ensures clean joint areas. Adhesive residues and liquids are gently removed – for perfectly cleaned surfaces from matte to high-gloss.

With this IIoT platform, you can network your machines – for greater transparency, less downtime, and easier maintenance.
