Q-Fin

Quality Finishing

Effective technology – without intermediate sanding, that’s Quality Finishing by MARTIN.

Q-Fin

With a whole range of advantages for perfect surfaces.

In addition to clearly improved quality and reduced production costs, your windows will have a longer service life thanks to the wood preservation treatment applied on all sides. You can also give your staff a healthier work environment due to lower dust emissions. Another advantage, of course, is that from a pure craftsmanship point of view, the perfect surface quality achieved with Q-FIN technology is the true bottom line.

The best kind of intermediate sanding is no intermediate sanding.

Sanding and handling costs make up over 20% of the costs involved in manufacturing a wooden window frame. These steps in the production process are unpleasant and yet they must be carried out conscientiously. Such work often takes up the time of expensive, highly-qualified staff when they could be focusing on other activities with greater added value.

Q-FIN makes your processes far more efficient: Ideally, the machine, which can be operated via a large touchscreen, is implemented directly after profiling. After that, the window manufacturer has several options to choose from. Either the frames are bonded directly after being processed by the Q-FIN and then go on to surface finishing. Or, after Q-FIN and before bonding, they pass through a tunnel, where they are bonded, and then they move on to surface finishing. The advantage of this is that all six sides of the component are protected with a waterproofing treatment.

Machining of individual window profiles continues to make headway thanks to the possibilities provided by CNC manufacturing. Coating each individual profile before assembly is just another logical step in the right direction. Not only does this method increase productivity, it also ensures coating in the corner joints without any weak points.

Whatever the situation in your company, Q-FIN will bring you huge cost advantages. The machine will have paid for itself within a very short space of time, for instance after an annual production of approx. 1,500 windows.

Q-FIN is the perfect machine for any business that is looking to ease the cost
burden while at the same time improving surface quality.

The process sequence – an overview.

Modern manufacturing plants tend to use one of the two production processes outlined below. It is irrelevant which process you currently use. All that matters is that the Q-FIN can demonstrate what it is capable of in almost all conceivable scenarios.

The surface on your products is the best way to promote your company.

Where windows were once considered to be part of the basic structure of a building, today, they are increasingly perceived as “design objects”. Customers make a very conscious decision to choose technically sophisticated windows and therefore expect a correspondingly first-class surface. The Q-FIN procedure makes it possible for you to optimally fulfil such high demands with significantly less effort.

With a whole range of advantages for perfect surfaces.

Higher quality, lower production costs and so much more.

In addition to clearly improved quality and reduced production costs, your windows will have a longer service life thanks to the wood preservation treatment applied on all sides. You can also give your staff a healthier work environment due to lower dust emissions. Another advantage, of course, is that from a pure craftsmanship point of view, the perfect surface quality achieved with Q-FIN technology is the true bottom line. The fine-planing or finish-planing techniques used widely in the window manufacturing industry today promise very smooth and, above all, homogeneous wood surfaces. However, the more uneven the annual rings in the wood and the greater the difference in hardness between early wood and late wood, and the duller the tool, the more unsatisfying the planing results achieved. This leads to uneven absorption behaviour of the wood which can cause patchy or blotchy effects, especially when dark colours are used. With Q-FIN, you produce evenly absorbent surfaces and therefore perfect colouring.

More Highlights

No more intermediate sanding – not even on bevelled planes.

In order to eliminate intermediate sanding on the bevelled edges of sashes and frames, our engineers have developed a chamfer unit that can be adjusted in the angle range from 0 to 60 degrees. This means that not only the sash and frame parts on all relevant surfaces, but also the equally important glazing beads, no longer need to be sanded between coats.
These small yet crucial areas can now also be processed with Q-FIN technology. With less use of resources and a better result.

Quality Finishing refers to the geometrically defined cross-grain-cutting of fibrous wood. Through fine cross-grain cutting, the wood fibres, which run lengthwise on three sides of the workpiece, are cut with a degree of definition that cannot be achieved with conventional brush methods. This means that when water-based wood preservatives and varnishes are subsequently applied, the fibres do not straighten up again and the surfaces remain perfectly smooth. Therefore, no further sanding between coats of varnish is required, which means that not only can the sanding process itself be dispensed with, but all the associated handling tasks too.
