This IMA Novimat Contour is a used edge bander — sometimes referred to as an edge banding machine — manufactured in 2009 and currently located in Germany. Edge banders are purpose-built woodworking machines that apply and trim edge material to the exposed sides of panel workpieces, producing clean, finished edges on boards, cabinet components, and furniture parts. IMA is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing edge banding and panel processing machinery for the furniture and woodworking industries.
The machine offers an electronically controlled feed speed ranging from 6 to 30 metres per minute, giving operators precise control over throughput to suit different materials and edge types. It is compatible with a broad range of edge materials: paper, PVC, and ABS edges from 0.3 to 3.0 mm thick; veneer from 0.5 to 3.0 mm; and solid wood slats from 0.8 to 20 mm. Edge height capacity spans 14 mm to 65 mm, and roll edge thickness runs from 0.3 to 3.0 mm. Regarding edge overhang allowance, the machine accommodates up to 5 mm of overhang for edge material up to 8 mm thick, and up to 2 mm for material over 8 mm.
Workpiece handling is flexible within defined parameters. The minimum workpiece length is 150 mm and the minimum width is 25 mm. Minimum workpiece thickness is 8 mm when operating without profile scraper blades, rising to 12 mm when profile scraper blades are fitted. Maximum workpiece thickness without corner copying is 60 mm, reduced to 40 mm when corner copying is active. The smallest element the machine can process is 150 mm × 150 mm, or alternatively 65 mm × 300 mm, with a maximum thickness of 25 mm for these small-format pieces.
