Automatic edgebanding machines with a wide performance range from small craftsman machines to industrial machines

• The machines of the series 'Akron' were sold very successfully in England and Ireland, especially the model Akron 430 and similar models.
• The 800s line was developed as an alternative to the small edgebanding machines from Homag. They have relatively heavy machine bodies and can be equipped with aggregates for all forms of edge finishing.
• In about 2006, slight change of design: The protective covers get bigger windows with a narrow border in black.
