WEITMANN & KONRAD GMBH & CO. KG

WEKO, founded in 1953, is a german manufacturer of innovative and contact-free minimal application systems for fluid and powdery substances. For powdery products spray-nozzle systems are developed and produced at WEKO for mostly Antiblock functions. For fluid applications WEKO developed and manufacture unique rotor-spray technology to combine a more sustainable and high precise process with cost-saving production. Especially for the wood and straw panel board production WEKO offers contact-free and high precision band and mat moistening systems. Typically the water is mixed with an release agent to avoid press stops on the 24/7 continuous running panel board presses for MDF, HDF, CB/PB and OSB. The precise moisture applications which allows setting steps of +/- 0,1ml/m² combined with a high performance dosing system for release agents spends a lot of benefits to the press productivity and board quality. As no spray nozzles are involved which has to be exchanged and/or often maintained the system offers a very low cost of ownership. The applied water reacts inside the press like a fast steam shock and reduces the reaction time of your glue by up to 30% - which means your press could run much faster. In addition it spends a higher flexibility of the platecombined with a more dense top and bottom layer.
