Over the past year, Kallesoe Machinery A/S has experienced an increase in the number of requests for high frequency lamination plants, and in fact the last four plants delivered to the wood industry, are high frequency plants. Thus over the last six months, a 200kW plant has been delivered to Russia, a 100kW plant with glue application equipment to a Danish window manufacturer and a 200kW system to an Austrian manufacturer of structural beams. The fourth plant, a 150kW system combined with glue application equipment, fivefold sorting equipment and vacuum stacker, is currently under production and will produce laminated window frame wood for a major German manufacturer in the Czech Republic.

"A high frequency plant is more expensive than a traditional lamination plant, i.e. cold press and hot water press which we also manufacture, that is true, but we also see that our customers get clearly more aware of to the obvious advantages of such equipment," says CEO Bruno Kallesøe. "A high frequency press is many times faster than a traditional press and these days, having strong focus on environment and energy prices, this decrease in energy consumption is very important.

Equally important is that a high frequency plant enables the manufacturer to produce following incoming orders more or less from day to day: Due to the fact that the high frequency only heats up the glue and not wood during the laminating process, the end product does not need to rest afterwards as is the case with wood laminated in a cold press or in a hot water press. The final product can virtually be packed and loaded directly from the press, even with temperatures 20 degrees below zero outside. This means something to the bottom line - and our customers know that! "
