It's that easy:


3D foil-lamination and foil-coating:

  • Pre-heat unit to desired operation temperature
  • Insert work pieces including supporting pads
  • Spread the 3D foil over the work piece surface and close the heating cover
  • After the preset heat-up time, initiate the vacuum pressing procedure (duration of pressing cycle: approx. 100 – 150 seconds)
  • After the pressing cycle has been completed, lift the heating cover and extract the finished work pieces
  • Continue on to no. 2 below

Layer-gluing and form-veneering:

  • If needed, attach the heating cover, and set it to the desired temperature (note that a 20 minute pre-heating time is required. Keep the heating cover closed during the pressing cycle and while you insert work pieces. This helps to save energy.)
  • Adjust the operation surface into the desired position
  • Open the membrane frame and insert the work piece
  • always leave some space between the work piece and the inside of the frame (at least one time the height of the work piece)
  • Close the membrane frame
  • Turn on the vacuum pump to inititate the air-extraction process and to begin the pressing cycle
  • Once the desired ultimate pressure has been reached, the pump will automatically turn on and off as needed (this saves energy)
  • After completion of the pressing cycle, turn off the unit, open the membrane frame, and extract the finished work piece
