PROCESS MAP
Tape preparation → panel edgebanding
Adhesive coating and film lamination add a laser-activatable adhesive layer to edgebanding tape. In laser edgebanding, a separate laser system activates the layer and the edgebander applies the prepared tape to the panel. Hot-air contour edgebanding uses hot air as the heat source.
01 / Tape preparation
Apply adhesive to the back of edgebanding tape.
Which tape material, dimensions and adhesive are required? Which edgebander will use the coated tape?
Tape preparation
EM-60S
Apply hot-melt adhesive to the back of edgebanding tape, then cool and rewind it for a separate panel edgebanding operation.

Target result
Share photos showing the required finish and part shape.
02 / Tape preparation
Bond adhesive film to edgebanding tape with hot air.
EM-25 combines adhesive film and edgebanding tape using hot air. Share your tape and film details so EIMA can discuss the setup for your downstream laser edgebander.

03 / Contour edgebanding
Apply edgebanding to external curved panel edges.
For external panel contours and panel thicknesses of 10–60 mm. R7 denotes a 7 mm radius; discuss the specific contour and tape with EIMA. Edge trimming is performed manually after edgebanding.
