Quality VAKuum Products, inc, (Q.V.P.) has a large 126" x 66" x 6",
102" x 66" x 6", 126" x 66" x 24" and a 102 x 66" x 24" Vacuum Frame Presses
for shops requiring pressing of several flat panels at the same time or large
curved pieces. The 24" high industrial grade polyurethane top permits stacking
of several 5' x 10' or 5' x 8' panels in one pressing. This allows a shop to lay-up
the panels in place and close the frame lid without having to slide the panels into a
vacuum bag. The 24" high top also allows for a large curved form to be used in the
frame press. It's faster and easier for production of large work than using
a vacuum bag to press veneer on flat or curved substrates.
Q.V.P. has been making large frame presses as special orders for years and
has added the large frame press as a standard item. Medium sized shops do not
need panel production equipment that cost tens of thousands of dollars.
However, they do need the capacity to do limited production of flat or curved pieces
that are difficult and time consuming to do with a mechanical press or a vacuum
bag press.
Large shops with high speed panels production equipment have purchased the
large frame press to do prototypes or one-of-a-kind curved pieces. As one
large shop production manager said at the 1997 Anahiem Show,"We get
orders for 500 flat panels and then order for 3 curved panels. We need to do them to
satisfy our large account or we don't get the order for the 500 panels. Your
large frame press allows us to do the curved work off line with high quality
results."
