Productivity and quality control are increased as the floorboards or furniture panels are only handled once in the process — freeing resources and factory floor space and ensuring a consistent, quality insertion from a machine that is both easy to use and service. As a result of the agreement, a Threespine® automated inserter has been installed at the Välinge support center in Kushan that opened in 2019. Having the machine on-site will allow Välinge to offer its licensees a first-rate demonstration and training environment for the latest inserter technology. The agreement has had an immediate effect with one 5G® Fold Down™ automated inserter currently being installed at a licensee’s facility in South China. “In HOMAG China we have found an ideal partner with the same exacting standards that we at Välinge have. It enhances our local presence in China even more — we’re excited by the benefits it will bring our many licensees in the region,” says Magnus Holgesson. 5G Tongue insertion Threespine production For more information please contact Magnus Holgesson Regional Manager Asia Sales & Marketing + 46 (0) 766 69 88 57 magnus.holgesson@valinge.se Permalink Copyright © Välinge Innovation AB.
