activating this option, the values in the parameters“OMI”, “OMO”, “ETH” are calculated
automatically by the system and then made non-editable.
Optimisation of edgebanding strip loading

Allows to optimise the time taken to extract the edgebanding strips from the store, reducing the
number of withdrawals made by gluing group. In this case, the amount of edgebanding strips
dispensed will equal the sum of the values defined in more consecutive machining operations. To
make this command work properly, we must define a maximum amount of extractable

Before reading the following chapters, it is important to know the meaning of the term
“edgebanding” and the types of machining operations that can be programmed with the software.
2.1 Edgebanding
Edgebanding means the group of operations carried out by the machine to apply the edgebanding
strip to the surface forming the piece thickness and to finish the edgebanding strip applied.
The number of sides to which it is necessary to apply to edgebanding strip depends on the piece
(or profile) shape reproduced in the plan of the Editor application software graphics area,
represented by means of the drawing (figure 4).
Figure 4: A = thickness of the piece edgebanding strip; B = piece side; C = piece or “profile” shape.
Each profile is made up of geometric elements (lines and arcs) and represents the machining path
to be covered. Each element is connected to the following one and to the previous one; this
connection is used to determine the machinable sides and, therefore, to define two types of
profiles: “disjointed” or “open” profile, and “closed” profile.
Closed profile (closed ring)

When the elements used to form the profile are adjoining and tangential among themselves, the
generated path is unique and corresponds to a unique side of the piece, as it begins and ends in
the same point. In this case the profile is defined as “closed” (figure 4) and the machining
operation is defined as “closed ring edgebanding”. By selecting a profile element in the Editor
graphics area, the system automatically selects all the profile.
BIESSE S.p.A. © - b705kb0002.fm301110

23
2 Basic signs
Figure 5: closed ring profiles
Open or disjointed profile (open ring)

When the geometric elements used to form the profile are adjoining but not tangential among
themselves (figure 6), they create tangency instructions and, therefore, a non-continuous path (a
discontinuous geometry); in this case the profile is defined as “disjointed” or “open” and the
machining operation is defined as “open ring edgebanding”. By selecting a profile element in the
Editor graphics area, the system automatically searches all the adjoining and tangential elements
in order to determine the machinable side.
Figure 6: example of tangential and non tangential elements.
A and B: circle arcs intersecting in the P

point; non tangential elements.
C and D: line and circle arc intersecting in
the P point; non tangential elements.
E and F: line and circle arc intersecting in
the P point; tangential elements.
P: joint point between the geometric
elements ends.
The example in figure 7 shows a disjointed profile made up by three sides, L1, L2 and L3, deriving
from three tangency interruptions, f, g and h, between the profile elements. Element A and
element B form the f tangency interruption; element C and element D form the g tangency
interruption; element D and element E form the h tangency interruption.
By selecting element E, the system automatically joins it to element A, creating a single
machinable side in a single edgebanding sequence. In this example the edgebanding operations

to be programmed are three; the machine does not carry out a single continuous edgebanding
operation, but three edgebanding operations.

arcs) and divided by means of the c, d, e tangency interruptions.

2.2 Types of programmable machining operations

With the BiesseWorks software it is possible to program the following edgebanding operations:
• Blowing: cleaning the surface to be edgebanded.
• Gluing: the group of operations that are used to apply the edgebanding strip.
• Edge trimming: cutting the edgebanding strip at the ends of the edgebanded side.
• Double edge trimming: disposal of the edgebanding strip in excess in the upper and lower
parts of the piece.
26 BIESSE S.p.A. © - b705kb0002.fm301110

2 Basic signs
• Edgebanding strip scraping: removal of the excess material from the upper and lower ends
of the edgebanded side, to give a rounded shape to the edgebanding strip and to eliminate the
roughness left by the double edge trimming mill.
• Glue scrapping: removal of the glue in excess to eliminate possible burrs and clean the
edgebanded side.
• Corner trimming: rounding of the edgebanded corners.
• Edgebanding strip tempering: restoring the edgebanding strip original colour by heating the
edgebanded side.

carry out special machining operations.
• AT1 subspindle; standard subspindle of the double edge trimming mill to be used to machine
the profiles with closed or open ring.
• AT2 subspindle; fictitious subspindle of the double edge trimming mill to be used when
performing double edge trimming operations that need the aggregate to be turned 8° in
relation to the spindle axis. Continued double edge trimming operations on the open profile
are possible with this spindle.
• AT3 subspindle; standard subspindle of the edgebanding strip scraper blade.
• AT4 subspindle; standard subspindle of the glue scraper blade.
• AT5 subspindle; fictitious subspindle of the glue scraper blade. The axis of this subspindle is
aligned with the aggregate axis and allows to perform machining operations on the concave
profiles with very small bending radius (see the related technical data in the aggregates
manual).

6.1 Basic edgebanding concepts

Edgebanding is carried out by using the geometric profile created with the GEO command
(“generic” geometric profile).
Piece edgebanding comprises different types of machining operations that can be programmed as
needed:
1. Blowing operation (see page 55).
2. Gluing operation (see page 54).
3. Double edge trimming operation (see page 56).

4. Double edge trimming of the postformed panel (see page 58).
5. Edgebanding strip scraping operation (see page 59).
6. Glue scraping operation; glue (see page 62).

7. Edge trimming operation (see page 64).
8. Edgebanding refreshing operation (see page 67).
9. Corner trimming operation (see page 68).

It is also possible to intervene on the machining operations by entering the additional technological
data, which can be applied to the single profile elements, to be able to carry out an optimum
machining operation or to optimise the machining operation (see paragraph 6.12, page 72).
How to select the profile elements to be machined

To select a profile element to be edgebanded, place the cursor on one element in the drawing,
press the left mouse button and the CTRL key followed by the SHIFT key; the element should turn
red. To select another element, repeat the same procedure.
6.2 Notes on programming

If the program has been declared to be symmetrical, i.e. the Symmetry box of the dialogue box
Piece variables has been enabled, edgebanding operations cannot be carried out since they can
not be made symmetrical, that is, executable on a symmetrical origin.
Therefore, so that it can be made symmetrical, no edgebanding machining operation must active
or commented (turned into a comment) in the edgebanding program.
6.3 Gluing operation

In this case it is possible to use two different programming methods: the new assisted
programming (see chapter 8 “assisted gluing operation”), operative from software version 3.2, or
the old manual programming (see chapter 9 “Manual gluing operation”).

6.4 Blowing operation

Select the profile element to which to apply the blowing operation from the graphics area, click on
the button and on the button. The system automatically searches all the elements
adjoining and tangential to the selected element to determine the machinable side in a single
blowing sequence. Fill in the following data fields:
Check data: used to enable the machine data check to establish whether there is coherence
between the data and the programmed machining operation. The disabled field displays the
alarm symbol on the machining operation icon.
Geom. identif.: identification code of the profile to which the element selected in the graphic area
belongs.
Selection type; allows you to choose which parts of the selected geometry will stay active for the

used only if the profile has been generated in an anticlockwise direction.
Move conn.: transfer of the machining operation start point, on the same profile trajectory, with
respect to its start point. A positive value moves the machining operation start point after the profile
start point, a negative value moves the machining operation start point before the profile start
point.
Input geom.; movement performed by the tool to penetrate the workpiece. Select the type of lead-
in required.
Radius perc.; percentage to modify the arc radius created by the tool to come close and to move
away from the piece.
MacSpd: tool speed of advance during the machining operation.

Spindle: used to indicate the spindle with which to carry out the machining operation. This field
can be useful when it is necessary to carry out a machining operation with an aggregate/tool that is
only supported by a specific spindle. You should check that the electrospindle chosen is present
