Bent Lamination Vacuum Press

Contemporary dining chair episode 507.

Bent lamination vacuum press.

The vacuum pressing bag system which completely envelops the woodwork and the vacuum press table frame system with a hinged lid that drops down over the wood panel being pressed. Vacuum pressing systems offers two types of veneering and laminating systems. With vacuum clamping your form needs to be exceptionally strong or it is likely to crush and ruin your glue up. Especially when pressing large bent laminations.

When set up right there will be no gaps in the lamination. The vacuum press is necessary for the glue up of the numerous laminates. This form of pressing is undoubtedly the primary application of global vacuum membrane presses though there are of. We manufacture vacuum bag presses and vacuum frame presses for veneering laminating and clamping using the finest materials to provide years of heavy duty service.

Vacuum pressing bag system. The tank gives a large initial vacuum flow which pulls the frame down to the table and provides the perimeter seal needed by the small pump. Which is often referred to as bent lamination or form veneering. Vacuum pressing systems for laminating veneering.

This project involves bentwood lamination for the curved chair back. Clamping in a vacuum press applies a surprising amount of pressure evenly across the entire part. I used boat canopy window vinyl for bag material and some brass fit. A solid form was used for vacuum clamping this small part.

Because a frame press has a large surface area to seal a 4 x 10 frame press has 28 to seal verses a bag with 4 to seal using a vacuum tank could make a difference on getting the initial seal. This free breathing quality of our system is unique to our presses and makes a big difference in the speed of air evacuation.
