Floors

When it comes to machinery and plant engineering, the Kraft Group stands for superior floor processing with double-end profiles: ranging from particularly flexible and innovative stand-alone machines to completely interlinked production lines.

Our range of systems offers virtually unlimited machining options for a large number of different materials and dimensions. Laminate flooring, parquet flooring, cork flooring, linoleum or veneer flooring, Luxury vinyl tile flooring, wood-plastic-composite flooring and design flooring.

Robust, high-performance technology – Made in Germany – for rough everyday industrial use.

Double-end tenoner

The precise double-end tenoner transport systems are distinguished by:

  • Rolling standard chain 60 mm/80 mm wide, with small chain pitch (higher stiffness and smooth running, etc.)
  • Rolling narrow chain 38 mm wide, with small chain pitch (higher stiffness and smooth running, etc.)
  • Belt transport system with feed rates above 350 m/min.

We design tailor-made system concepts, individually according to customer requirements.

As a driver of innovation, we perform extensive groundbreaking work. Our extensive range of products provides you with decisive advantages.

The extensive range of services includes the entire logistics, feeding, alignment via camera system, longitudinal saw, transverse saw, profiling with double-end tenoners (longitudinal and transverse), packaging and palletizing.

Tailor-made concepts allow a significant increase in productivity and quality for the future.

Application example

Profiling line for laminate flooring - 350m/min

The system displayed shows high-performance feeding using a tandem gantry with up to 25 cycles/min and profiling (incl. chamfer painting) of laminate flooring (tongue and groove, click profile) on the longitudinal and transverse sides using double-end tenoners. In the double-end tenoner longitudinal machine, the belt system is used with feed rates above 350 m/min. The double-end tenoner (cross machine) is equipped with a standard chain (80 mm wide), magazine device and automatic cam control for various part widths.

Application example

Profiling line for design flooring or LVT vinyl flooring - 200m/min

The system displayed shows high-performance feeding using a tandem gantry with up to 20 cycles/min., longitudinal dividing saw (multi-blade saws using torque motors), high-performance angular transfer using a tandem gantry, precision cross-cutting saw (with several movable cross-cutting saw units that can be controlled in and out) with double-end tenoner transport chains and the profiling (incl. chamfer painting) of design flooring or LVT vinyl flooring (tongue and groove, click profile) on the longitudinal and transverse sides using double-end tenoners. The double-end tenoner longitudinal machine is designed as a dual chain conveyor machine with specialized and precision narrow chains (40 mm wide) for feed rates up to 200m/min. The double-end tenoner cross machine is equipped with a standard chain (80 mm wide), magazine device and automatic cam control for various part widths.
