Model
V94-AC		   ARTESAI V94-AC
High Speed, High Precision
knife grinding machine
   
  The Taihei V94-AC knife grinder is mainly used for base grinding veneer knives.
 
 
■Knife dimension
Length 1,000mm – 3,320mm
Width 125mm – 210mm
Thickness 12mm – 25mm
   
 
■Possible knife angle

Back：0°10’～ 45°
   
  Straighter knives
The ARTESA I has a high capacity coolant system that prevents frictional heating during grinding. This enables the machine to grind a knife with a straightness within 0.05mm (0.002 inches) over 2,750mm (9 feet).
  Fully automatic operation
By inputting the grinding pattern into the ARTESA I, the machine is capable of automating the entire grinding process. By using patterns, any operator can recreate knife angles consistently.
  Possible to grind many kinds of knife
The ARTESA I is not limited to grinding veneer knives. It is flexible enough to grind numerous types of knives including the chipper knife, clipper knife, composer knife and flaker knives among others.
   
 
Veneer quality
01 The ARTESA models conduct precision knife honing that results in a straighter and sharper edge. This knife allows for precise cutting on the lathe, improving veneer quality.
  → Increased veneer uniformity leads to a smoother veneer surface.
   
02 The knife honing angle can be kept consistent.
  → A consistent knife angle means veneer quality is consistent.
 
Cost savings
01 Low grade logs can be peeled.
  → Using sharper knives with consistent angles, low quality logs can be peeled to produce higher quality veneers.
  Reduces log costs.
   
02 Knife durability is increased as cracks are reduced on the knife tip and edge.
  → Using a special oval precision knife edge, veneer surface quality and consistency is increased.
  Less breakage means less knife costs.
   
03 By making the veneer surface smoother and consistent, the amount of glue required can be reduced.
  → Reduce glue costs.
   
04 The precision knife enables the lathe to peel veneer with uniform thickness while reducing the likelihood of splits and cracks. This decreases the likelihood of damage in the stacking and drying processes.
  → Improved yield with less waste.
   
05 The amount of sanding required is reduced in the sanding process. Veneer yield for the face and back will be increased as the process allows for peeling of thinner veneers.
  → Improved plywood thickness.
   
06 With a smoother surface, veneer flexibility is increased and handling becomes easier.
  → Improved productivity.
