This Koch DL 80 Edge Bander is a used edge bander — sometimes referred to as an edge banding machine — built in 1991 and currently located in Belgium. Edge banders are woodworking machines used to apply and trim edge material to panel products, and in this machine's case also to insert dowels, making it suited to furniture and cabinet production lines where both edge finishing and jointing operations are required. Koch is a German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the woodworking machinery industry, producing equipment for furniture manufacturers and industrial panel processing operations.
The machine carries serial number 9107/4512 and handles workpieces ranging from 180 to 3,000 mm in length, 100 to 800 mm in width, and 12 to 40 mm in thickness. The working and transport height is 900 mm, and the overall footprint of the machine is 5,500 × 2,700 × 2,100 mm.
The fixed side is positioned on the left, with motorised width adjustment on the right side. Workpiece transport is carried out by belts, and the infeed belts are designed to lift, which assists with loading and feeding panels into the machine. Feed speed is variable, and a workpiece middle support with rollers provides stability during processing.
The dowel insertion specification covers a dowel diameter of 8 mm and a dowel length of 30 to 40 mm, with a dowel projection of 7 to 14 mm. Dowel centres range from a minimum of 32 mm to a maximum of 736 mm. Each side of the machine is equipped with eight glue injectors and eight dowel inserters of Type 24, giving the machine full bilateral dowelling capability. Each side also carries two dowel magazines fitted with a shaker mechanism and eight outlets with separators to ensure reliable dowel feeding and separation. The glue system uses a pump with a 3:1 ratio and is fitted with a pressure controller for consistent glue application. A control mirror is also included, allowing the operator to monitor the working area during operation.
