Flexipress Column
A high-performance automatic press for the flexible production of straight glulam beams and columns. It allows quick adjustment to different GLT shapes and supports beam sizes up to 80 inches in height and 24 inches in width, ideal for both custom and commodity production. The press uses fast cold-setting PUR adhesives, ensuring strong, durable bonds without the need for heat.
With motorized setup and hydraulic pressing, the FLEXIPRESS COLUMN easily adapts to changing production needs—whether for individual members or high-volume output. The system is fully automated, with driven manipulators for loading and unloading. A built-in side pressure system ensures fast closing times, ideal for fast-curing PUR or MUF adhesives. Multiple stepped layers can be pressed in one batch. Pressing shoes are motor-driven, and short-stroke hydraulic cylinders deliver fast, powerful pressing—perfect for efficient, high-capacity production.
