Woodworking

Wood as a natural resource is of great economic importance. High demands are posed to the material and its technical specifications, as well as to the end product and its visual appearance.

Your contact for surface treatment

The natural raw material wood is of great importance in various industries. High technical demands are placed on the raw material, on the finished product and after all on its appearance. In short, the surface treatment of wood is very specific, as there are high demands on the wood surfaces.

What happens before the surface treatment?

In order to meet the industrial requirements for wood surfaces in the best possible way, an analysis of the initial condition is required first. 

During wood preparation and production of the workpieces, upstream processing steps are decisive for the subsequent finish and surface result.

Below, the processing steps required to produce a wooden plank as a starting workpiece are documented.

Trimming

Loading...

Trimming involves cutting off the edge of the tree using a saw cut. The aim of the cut is to remove the bark and the directly adjacent cambium layer from the sawn timber.

Dressing

Loading...

The wood product, e.g. plank, cannot yet be processed after the edging cut. On the one hand, the surface structure is rough. On the other hand, the still warped surfaces must be leveled. In this step, angularity is also created between the individual sides.

Planing

Loading...

The planing process is now required to achieve a defined thickness/height. An already flat wood surface is placed on the planing table and the opposite surface is then processed in one or more planing processes. 

Cutting to size

Once the desired thickness or height is achieved, the product can now be cut to the final length and width dimensions. The sawn timber is now prepared for brushing processes such as structuring.

Texturing wood

To create textures on wooden surfaces, the softer earlywood components are brushed out whilst the harder latewood remains intact, forming the desired relief-like texture.

Grinding wood

Whether sanding, fine sanding or intermediate lacquer sanding. Whether a simple, flat surface or a complex, uneven surface - Osborn helps with the sanding of wood.

Stripping paint from wood

Due to weathering and other external influences, lacquered surfaces are subject to flaking and peeling over time. Before a new coat of paint can be applied, the wood must be completely stripped of paint. Compared to other methods, brushing allows you to tap into a variety of benefits.

Cleaning wood

Especially in exterior applications, wooden surfaces are exposed to weathering, resulting in undesired discoloration and decomposition of the surface.

Applying paint, oil, and sealers to wood

Texturing or grinding is often followed by a variety of finishing steps. Surface coatings are usually used to increase protection and weather resistance, but are also applied for visual reasons.

Dust off wood

A lot of dust and sawdust is produced during woodworking. A clean, dust-free surface is essential for the further processing of wooden workpieces.

Strip brushes for woodworking machines

Sealing, cleaning, elctrical shielding, guiding – strip brushes are versatile tools for a wide range of use cases.

Finishing WPC components

WPC (Wood Plastic Compound) is a material mix primarily used for exterior applications such as porch and deck flooring, fences, shutters, and blinds. We help you to achieve the desired surface structure and finish.
