Steel Belts: Two massive, highly polished, continuous steel belts (top and bottom) that carry the mat through the press. They transmit pressure and heat evenly.
Heating System: Typically uses high-pressure thermal oil circulating through heating platens above and below the belts. Steam systems are less common now. Provides the heat (170-220°C) needed to melt the resin (usually UF or MUF) and cure it.
Hydraulic Pressing System: A series of hydraulic cylinders along the length of the press apply immense pressure (upwards of 1000 psi / 70 bar initially, tapering off) to compress the mat. Modern CPS presses have multiple pressure zones along their length.
Roller Carriage System: Supports and guides the steel belts. Precision rollers maintain belt tension, alignment, and flatness.
Infeed Nose: Guides the fragile mat smoothly onto the moving lower steel belt and under the upper belt as pressure begins.
Outfeed Nose: Guides the pressed board off the belts smoothly as pressure releases.
Belt Cleaning & Lubrication: Critical systems to remove resin residues and ensure smooth belt movement and prevent sticking.
Drive System: Powerful motors driving the belts at precisely controlled speeds, determining line speed and press residence time.
Thickness Control System: Sophisticated sensors (lasers, eddy current) continuously monitor board thickness at the exit. Feedback loops automatically adjust the gap between the platens along the press length to maintain target thickness.
Advanced Control System: PLCs and sophisticated HMI software control all parameters: temperature profiles per zone, pressure profiles per zone, belt speed, belt tracking, thickness control, lubrication, etc. Integration with upstream/downstream systems is crucial.
Minimized Waste: Precise control and continuous operation drastically reduce start-up, shutdown, and grade-change waste. Consistent mat formation feeding the CPS further minimizes edge trim and off-spec material.
Labor Optimization: The high level of automation inherent in CPS operation significantly reduces the manual labor required per unit of output compared to managing multiple daylight presses. Operators transition to supervisory and analytical roles.
Maximized Uptime: While complex, the intelligent predictive maintenance capabilities and robust design of leading CPS presses contribute to high overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), minimizing costly unplanned downtime.
