Industrial wood processing
Surface preparation
2.1
Surface preparation is an important step in the processing of
wood in all its forms - plain wood, plywood, chipboard or
MDF - as it strongly conditions the visual finishing quality of
finished products. It can also lead to a substantial reduction
in coating or stain consumption. With a wide range of construction types and a strong know-how in fill material types,

Fine sanding, deburring and edge rounding
After planing and milling, the wood surface is usually prepared with a belt sander for subsequent coating. Even if very
fine abrasive grits are used, the belt sander cannot avoid
damaging the top layer or even pressing fibres into the wood
surface. These damaged or loose fibres will then reappear on
the surface after coating as a result of tension arising during
6
Denibbing
After a stain or base coat is applied, wood fibres or “nibs” are
raised which, together with possible excess coating, make the
surface feel rough.
In order to achieve the required smooth surface for the subsequent treatment, a perfect fine sanding of the priming is
necessary to remove the raised fibres and the excess coating.
Once again, the OSBORN-Unipol Novofil®
abrasive nylon
brushes give a long-lasting perfect solution with accurate and
constant aggressiveness.
For some coating types, a rougher surface structure with
microscopic scratches is required, this can be achieved using
a more aggressive brush and higher RPM.
Fine sanding and denibbing of profiles
For surface preparation of profiled elements, we recommend
the Lipprox
®
and Lipprite
®
wheel range. Their non-woven,
flexible, abrasive structure can easily be dressed to the exact
form of the moulding and thus ensure a homogeneous finish.
Lipprox
®
convolute wheels: for fine sanding of MDF or plain
wood moulding after milling and after veneering.
Lipprite
®
flap wheels: for denibbing of veneered profiles.
The result of this automated process greatly improves the
quality of surface preparation prior to staining or coating
leading to the reduction of the quantity of primer required
and therefore reducing costs.
Thanks to the flexibility of abrasive nylon filament, the brush
will adapt to all contours and shapes ensuring a homogeneous result on the entire surface.
Where the efficiency of the sanding paper decreases over the
service life, the aggressiveness of the Novofil abrasive nylon
filaments remains constant or slightly increases over the life
time of the brush. Indeed, with the wearing of the nylon
based filaments, new embedded abrasive particles are constantly revealed at their tips. On totally flat surfaces, such as
panels, the Lipprite
®
abrasive rollswill provide a very intensive brushing and achieve a smooth and homogeneous surface after belt sanding.

Preliminary tests can be performed in our laboratory and our
technicians can further assist you during the set-up of the
process.
The high-quality Novofil
®
filaments and metallic wire used by
OSBORN-Unipol guarantee the highest brush lifetime.
Structuring / antique finishing
For a wide range of products such as floor, decking, doors or
furniture elements, manufacturers are seeking to emphasize
the natural grain of plain wood in order to obtain an antique
or rustic finish.
OSBORN-Unipol offers a comprehensive range of aggressive
brush roll solutions to achieve a unique finish for the different
wood hardnesses.
The filaments abrade the softer areas more than the harder
ones, revealing the grain of the wood and leaving a surface in
relief that can be then stained or filled for ceruse finish.
The depth of the structure can be controlled with the brush
speed and line feed.
For hard wood species, metallic bristle brush rolls are recommended. Carbon steel wire and brass coated steel cord wire
give, in this case, an excellent finish, but for very acid wood
species, the use of stainless steel wire is a must to avoid
undesired dark stains on the wood surface that
can be caused by the corrosion of steel wires.
After structuring with metal brush, a subsequent operation with a Novofil
®
abrasive nylon brush is recommended to
remove the raised and broken wood
fibres and to finish opening the
pores.
For softer wood, great results can be
achieved in just one operation with
aggressive Novofil
®
brush rolls.
The key to success is to define the accurate
combination of filament or wire, brush density and aggressiveness, as well as, process parameters to match each specific structure result required.
8
Plastic wood structuring
Composite material extrusions such as plastic wood made of
natural fibres and synthetic material, are used more and more
for decking, fences and floor construction.
The challenge for the manufacturer is to recreate the structure
of plain wood on the surface of the extrusion both for decorative and security requirements.
This particular random and non-slip pattern can be achieved
with OSBORN-Unipol densely filled wire brush rolls.
For optimum and constant results, OSBORN-Unipol ensures
a continuous high density as well as perfect trimming and
grinding of the brush.
Brush roll constructions
Brush roll form is the most common shape for the surface
preparation of large panels and especially suitable when the
finishing must follow or recreate the specific fibre direction of
the wood.
Depending on the machine configuration and specific applications we can provide different brush constructions:
- Factory assembly constructions
- Complete spiral brush with shaft
- Spiral brush refilled on reusable tube or on customer shaft
- Customer assembly constructions
- Spiral brush on one-way tube
- Internal welded brush modules
- Loose spiral brush
- Section construction pressed on tube for very high density short roller brushes
All our state-of-the-art
brushes are carefully
trimmed, ground and
balanced (except for the
loose spiral and brush
modules).
Cleaning before coating and staining
Before coating or staining, the cleaning operation is the last
important preparation step to ensure the quality of the result
and to reduce the consumption of treatment.
The OSBORN-Unipol dense brush rolls with natural Tampico
fibres in a conveyor type system will ensure a continuous
removal of the dust and finest loose fibres from the sanding,
fine sanding or structuring operations.The slight natural abrasiveness of the Tampico fibres will moreover provide the
finest finishing of the surface.
Punched construction and Multi-Zack modular system
The filaments are inserted in bundles into a plastic body
which offers a great range of design, pattern form and den sity
possibilities.
Punched brush rolls can be provided in one piece, with or
without shaft, or in a convenient Multi-Zack modular system.
Dusting
For fine dusting operations at different steps of the process,
OSBORN-Unipol brush rolls with natural horse hair will give
excellent results.
To easily remove the bulk of the dust or wooden chip from
wood panels or elements, OSBORN-Unipol lag brushes or
strip brushes with nylon filament or horse hair can be placed
at different steps of the conveyor systems.

The main recommended fill materials for these operations
are nylon, fibres, horse hair, chungking and phosphor bronze
fine wire.
The choice of the fill material, density and trim length will
depend on the nature of coating and expected levelling or
wiping effect.
In finishing or gluing lines, OSBORN offers a range of brush
solutions to apply, level or remove excess liquids on wood
elements.
The brush flexibility and the specific properties of each fill
material allow automation of these operations, optimising
the finish results and the liquid consumption.

Application category Lacquer type Machine type OSBORN-Unipol product range*
OSBORN-Unipol offers ideal solutions for the high gloss polishing of lacquer. A high quality surface finish is defined by a
uniform background and a shiny gloss. This result is achieved
by applying the appropriate polishing process after fine sanding and by the subsequent finishing operation. From an economic point of view, the time factor must always be taken
into consideration.
In our extensive product range, we have the appropriate
buffs, solid and liquid compounds, polishing and spraying
systems specially designed for this application. Thanks to our
close connection to our customer, these products and the
related processes are constantly evolving, allowing us to
make proposals based on the latest state-of-the-art technology
in laquer polishing.
Furniture components
Surfaces are generally polished on a rotary table machine;
however alternative transfer lines may be used. First, the lacquered surface previously fine-sanded with grits 800 to 1200,
has to be polished. The tool recommended for this operation
is a WR-buff together with the appropriate polishing compound chosen according to the type of lacquer used by the
customer. The polishing compound is applied with a brush or
with a roll directly on the part.
In the second step, the high gloss finish of the surface is
achieved using sponge pads. The polish should be applied
sparingly to the part and then rubbed in with the pads.
The edges can be processed manually or by using a special
edge polishing machine. For this operation, the best results
are achieved with a solid compound again selected according
to the type of lacquer.

This application is generally implemented on reversing
machines.The previous fine sanding is usually done with grit
size 280 or 400. OSBORN-Unipol folded EK rings made from
soft material are used as a polishing tool in combination with
a polishing emulsion for removing the sanding pattern. The
dosage of emulsion is controlled via high pressure guns and
is dependent on the part to be polished as well as on the
selected tool.
The OSBORN-Unipol product range, moreover, includes the
equipment needed for liquid application such as spray guns,
pressure tanks, diaphragm pumps or containers. If the parts
are being manually processed to a high gloss, then solid
paste is used first. Afterwards the surface will be finished with
liquid polish to finally achieve a deep, brilliant, high gloss.
Increasingly, robot processing has moved into this application.Tools such as maxi LM rings in a diameter range of about
960mm are used for polishing as well as for high-gloss finishing. For each single process step, an especially adapted
emulsion is used.

High load conveying with Load Runners®
The name Load Runners
®
stands for five decades of experience in manufacturing of idler rollers and guidance systems
for precision handling of heavy loads in tough environments.
Besides an extensive standard program of over 300 articles
available from stock or on short notice up to a diameter of
250mm, special sized rollers can also be tailor-made in small
quantities for special requirements.
To fit the different aggressiveness requirements of cleaning,
our brushes are available with a wide range of fill materials
including nylon, horse hair, natural fibres, steel, stainless
steel or phosphor bronze wire.
Process elements cleaning
OSBORN punched brush rolls offer flexible solutions for the
dusting and cleaning of conveyors, chains or other machine
elements. The punched construction allows infinite density
pattern configurations: plain, spiral or chevron form.
For heavy duty cleaning of MDF and OSB conveyors, for
example, OSBORN-Unipol recommends the spider brush roll
construction with convenient exchangeable strip brush elements.
Guiding and transporting
OSBORN brush transport rolls are a great alternative to steel,
polyurethane or rubber rollers for scratch-free conveying of
elements with delicate surfaces. The soft but short trimmed
and high quality nylon filaments easily support the weight of
big panels or elements, but do not retain dirt particles on their
surface, thus avoiding any risk of scratching. They additionally provide a significant noise reduction compared to solid
rollers. Different configurations are possible: continuous density rollers in one piece or modular system, or short elements
mounted with spacers.
With the same principle, wood panels can slide on OSBORN
nylon lag brush modules that can be installed on conveyors,
machines or racks to support,
protect or guide.

is an innovative Osborn made strip brush which,
due to its flexibility and adaptability in design, serves as a
cable duct element for furniture or constructive components. A further advantage in comparison to plastic strips
with bundle construction is the completely dense surface.
The reduction of weight, volume and bulkiness leads to
simplification in transport, handling and storage. Even the
smallest gaps can be optimally filled by the tiniest EZFlex
