Kundig Uniq-S Edge Sander

Uniq-S– With integrated feed system

In addition to the features of Kündig’s Uniq edge sander series, the Kundig Uniq-S model has a feed unit integrated into the machine body and is therefore ideally suited for the efficient through feed sanding of small and large production batches. Even difficult jobs, such as the production of chamfers are made easier for the user thanks to the fastening by means of the top pressure beam.

Ingenious Design – The Sanding Unit

At the heart of all Kündig’s edge sanding machines is the sanding unit. It offers a whole range of intelligent features. For example, the sanding belt does not oscillate by tilting the belt rollers. Instead, the entire sanding unit moves up and down. The oscillation stroke as well as the oscillation range are simply set by the use of two buttons. Maximum oscillation range is a whopping 90mm/3.5″. Thanks to the flexible adjustment and large oscillation range, sanding belts can be used optimally over their entire width, without any tedious adjustment of the working table height. The oscillation mechanism is driven by a separate motor.

The sanding unit can also be pivoted conveniently by means of a rotary switch. The pivoting mechanism is also driven by its own motor. The unit can be tilted between 90° and 45°. Thanks to the well thought-out mechanism, full oscillation is always available (at any sanding unit angle) and sanding on both sides is possible, even simultaneously. The different table heights of the front and rear sanding station also ensure that the belt is not being used at the same height at the same time. Furthermore, the combination of the pivoting mechanism and different table heights ensures that the distance between the sanding unit and the worktable remains minimal at any degree of inclination.

The integrated oil damper system, which acts on the tension roller, ensures that belts remain optimally tensioned even if there are differences in length due to manufacturing tolerances or the effects of moisture. The belt runs over a large area, graphite cloth. In order to reduce the wear on the graphite on the abrasive pad to a minimum, a deflection roller is installed to the left and right of it. The belt can also be changed with ease in seconds.

Always an Assistance – The Feed System

It is the feeding device that distinguishes the Uniq-S form the Uniq. The machine body integrated feeding system features a rubberized feed belt (a two-belt version is available as well) with variable speed between 3 and 15m/min (9 – 45 ft/min). its handling is, like everything on the Uniq-S, very simple. Place the workpiece on the table, fix it with the crank handle, start the feed. Afterwards, further workpieces of the same thickness can be simply placed on the belt. The feed system of the Uniq-S is ideally suited for sanding batches and is a helpful support when sanding or even producing chamfered or angled edges.

It is also useful for very large parts. The eccentric stops in front of the infeed fence are an additional help here. The feed unit of the Uniq-S is also helpful when processing particularly small parts. In this case we recommend the optional feed belt on the pressure beam (instead of the standard pressure rollers). Of course, all the above mentioned actions can also be carried out with our standard Uniq edge sander. However, Uniq-S users all agree that they would no longer want to go without the proven feed system.
