So, before you find out what equipment for the production of interior doors you need to purchase, you first need to figure out what they are and what they are made of. The fact is that different types of products require different machines.
What materials are necessary for the manufacture of doors
So, both natural and artificial materials can be used for production. The most popular are solid wood doors. They have high strength, durability, they are easy to repair in case of breakage, and they also have a beautiful appearance.
In addition, varnish or paint may be applied to the surface of such an article. The main advantage of such doors is that they are made of natural material, which is completely safe for human health. In addition, they can have a beautiful finish. Equipment for the production of interior doors of this type is the most complex and involves the implementation of a large number of actions.
There are also models made of artificial materials, and there are much more on the market. Their main advantage is low cost. Moreover, in appearance, and sometimes in quality, they may not be inferior to wooden products.
In addition, such doors do not require too complicated a production line for production. They are made of MDF, particleboard, fiberboard, plastic. Please note that in the event of a breakdown of such doors, they cannot always be restored.
What machines are necessary for work
In order to start the process, you must first find out what equipment for the production of interior doors you need to choose. So, for work you will need:
- presses and compressors;
- automated machines for cutting blades, which can be equipped with different types of saws (radial cutting, double-sided miter saw);
- lift;
- mechanism for transporting the web along the line (conveyor);
- equipment for the production of interior doors, with which glue is distributed on the surface of the workpiece;
- milling machines and edge banding mechanisms.
Acquisition of the main production line
In principle, you already know which machines for the production of interior doors are needed. However, we will figure out how the whole line should be equipped, which produces the manufacturing process from processing the material to the output of the finished product:
1. The area of trimming wood beams, which is installed radial cutting saw. If necessary, you can mount other types of cutting devices.
2. The assembly unit of the frame, for which you need to purchase several tables. When installing, pay attention to how exactly they will stand. The build quality of the door greatly depends on this.
3. The site on which the assembly of the canvas. There is a vacuum press, as well as a machine that distributes glue on the surface of the elements. In order to work comfortably, a hydraulic lift is also required.
4. A plot with milling and grinding machines. It is used to process the surface of the canvas, as well as cutting holes for the handle, lock, hinges, as well as other accessories, if provided. Grinding is carried out before final revetment of a cloth.
5. The node of the final trimming and control of the correct size of the doors.
5. The area where the painting or veneering of the canvas.
All these nodes must be connected by a conveyor to make it more convenient.Naturally, such a line simply must be automated, otherwise the production will take a large amount of time. In addition, you may need drying equipment, unless, of course, you will not buy ready-made material. In other cases, it is not needed.
The price of equipment for the production of interior doors is different, but you should not have illusions about its size. Naturally, you can buy used machines that cost an order of magnitude less, but their quality may not be too good. Although this option is quite suitable for the start of production, because over time the equipment can be replaced.
How to choose the right machines
This question is important, but not very difficult. What exactly do you need, you already know. It remains only to pick up really high-quality equipment that will have high performance and functionality. To do this, give preference only to manufacturers who have a good reputation and positive user reviews.
If you will produce doors of any one type, then you should not buy equipment with a large number of functions you do not need. In any case, then you can upgrade your workshop and purchase new machines.
How are wooden doors made
The production technology of paneled doors does not involve any difficulties. It consists of the following stages:
- Sawing logs and loading material into drying chambers, where humidity control should take place. This step may be skipped if you are buying already prepared raw materials.
- Cutting boards into lamellas with the removal of all existing flaws and defects.
- Splicing of workpieces with glue along the length and width.
- Veneering and circular trimming of the canvas.
- The formation of smooth angles in compliance with the proportions of all sides.
- Cutting out all the necessary holes, as well as forming a picture on the canvas (if necessary).
- Grinding and varnishing of the door, drying it.
- Packaging and warehousing of finished products.
Features of manufacturing doors from artificial materials
This process is practically no different from the general technology except that some steps can be skipped. For example, the raw materials are supplied in the form of large panels that need to be cut into canvases, so the first steps involving gluing the lamellas are not needed.
In addition, the equipment for the production of MDF doors does not differ in any complexity. That is, such canvases can be made on standard machines with the exception of certain stages of work.
