Our roll jet dryer dries the raw, moisture-heavy veneer after peeling on the lathe. Taihei’s proprietary technology performs rolling without bending. This eliminates inconsistent pressures, improves veneer yield, eliminates clogging, and reduces waving and cracking. The unit configuration also significantly shortens installation times.

Uses proprietary technology from Taihei that helps keep the roll from bending under its own weight and improve veneer feed performance. In conventional dryers the feed rolls bend under their own weight, which causes inconsistencies in veneer thickness. In the Taihei Roll Jet Dryer, feed roll bending is reduced, which can help eliminate inconsistent thicknesses and improve yield.

In conventional machines, the heating and cooling sections are assembled and installed on site to fit the installation location. With the Taihei model, these sections are shipped as fully assembled units. Building the units in our own factory not only increases product quality and precision, but also dramatically reduces the time required for installation, getting you back to operations faster than ever!

Veneer suctioning locations can be changed to match the feeder cycle. Using a vacuum generator eliminates the need for large-capacity dust collectors, keeping your operations more efficient. Veneer cuts do not need to be inserted by hand, so everything can be handled by a single operator. The Type VF-5(4) has a detection system to alert when two panels are inserted. When two panels are detected, the system stops at that location until one of the panels is removed, but in other locations the feeder continues to insert panels, thus avoiding any slowdown in the panel fill rate.
Every Taihei machine is precision-engineered to deliver lasting performance—crafted in-house using proven technology and the latest innovations to meet your toughest production demands.
