High-precision HDF Heat Press with Density Deviation ±3 And Servo Control System

To produce High-Density Fiberboard (HDF) with extremely uniform density distribution across the entire panel (density deviation ≤ ±3%), meeting stringent requirements for flatness and strength in high-end applications like furniture and flooring substrates.

The density is controlled within ±3%, which is the top level in the industry. Ordinary presses usually have a range of ±5-8%. Achieving ±3% density means that triple precision control must be achieved: (1) uniformity of the laying process (fiber grading and air flow laying); (2) precise regulation of the pressure in each continuous press zone; (3) closed-loop energy-efficient temperature control for the hot press.

High-precision HDF Heat Press with Density Deviation ±3 And Servo Control System

HDF MDF for MINGHUNG Machinery Line

HDF (High-Density Fiberboard) is an engineered wood product made from lignocellulosic fibers. Fibers are refined, mixed with resin, dried, formed into a mat, and consolidated under high temperature and pressure. Density ≥800 kg/m³.

Classification:    

Standard HDF (800-900 kg/m³)    

Ultra-Hard HDF (>900 kg/m³)    

Moisture-Resistant HDF (with water repellents)


Core Manufacturing Process  

1.Raw Material Processing: Wood → Chipping → Thermally Ground Fiber → Resin Blending (UF/Melamine) → Drying

Key Technologies for Achieving ±3% Density Deviation  

1. Multi-Zone Pressure Control System

      Zone Design: The press is divided into 20-30 independent pressure zones along its length and 5-10 zones across its width (totaling 200+ controllable zones).

      Dynamic Pressure Adjustment:

          Each zone is equipped with high-precision pressure sensors (accuracy ±0.5%) for real-time pressure monitoring.

          Proportional servo valves dynamically adjust hydraulic cylinder force based on the set pressure profile, with response time <50 ms.

      Example Profile:

          Infeed Zone: High pressure (>5 MPa) for rapid mat compression.

          Middle Zone: Reduced pressure (2-3 MPa) to allow steam escape.

          Outfeed Zone: Gradual pressure reduction to prevent springback.


2. Online Thickness Monitoring & Closed-Loop Control

      Thickness Scanners (Laser/X-ray): Scan panel thickness at 100+ points per second, resolution ±0.01 mm.

      Real-Time Feedback: Thickness data is compared to target values → automatically adjusts zoned pressure or press speed to compensate for density fluctuations.


3. Mat Preconditioning Technologies

     Pre-press: Pre-compacts the mat to ~70% of target density, eliminating initial density gradients.

      Microwave Preheating (Optional): Uniformly heats the core layer, reducing core/surface density differences during hot pressing.

2. Servo-Synchronized Steel Belt/Chain Mat Control

      Dual Servo Motor Drive:

          Independent servo motors drive upper/lower steel belts, with encoder feedback.

          Real-time synchronization accuracy ≤ ±0.1 mm, preventing belt slip or tension imbalance causing surface marks.

      Chain Mat Support System:

          Servo motors control chain mat height by zone, compensating for belt deflection to ensure uniform pressure transfer.

3. Servo Temperature Control

      Hot Oil Circulation System:

          Zoned temperature control (±1°C), avoiding local hot/cold spots.

          Servo valves modulate oil flow rate, responding to press speed changes (e.g., automatic temperature increase during acceleration).


Auxiliary Systems Supporting ±3% Density Precision  


1. Intelligent Forming System

      Airflow Formers: Layered fiber forming – coarse fibers in the core, fine fibers on surfaces.

      Online Density Gauges (X-ray): Detect forming density in real-time → feedback to adjust forming head parameters.


2. Press Frame & Heating Platen Design

      FEA-Optimized Frame: Stiffness >1×10⁶ N/mm, deflection <0.1 mm/m.

      Slightly Convex Platen Design: Compensates for thermal deformation during operation, ensuring uniform pressure distribution.


3. Big Data Process Optimization

      Digital Twin Model:

          Collects real-time pressure/temperature/speed data → Predicts density distribution → Automatically optimizes process profiles.

          Learns from historical data to continuously improve control precision.
