Edge banding applications have an intensive use in the furniture industry due to the visuality,
added value and protective properties it provides. In addition, the edge banding process is an
important step in the production process. In this study, the results of PVC based edge banding
application applied to the 18 mm MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) and PB (Particle Board)
slide edges are evaluated. Samples were taken from an industrial process by sampling method. In
the application, a computer controlled computer edge banding machine was used. In the edge
banding machine parameters such as speed glue temperature, speed and pressure were kept
constant. Dependant variable was edge banding performance while independent variable was
selected as material type. Edgebandign performance was analyzed with ANOVA and probability
plot.
According to results, material type was found as significant factor. MDF and PB for edge banding
performance values were found as 0.049 and 0.051 N/mm2, respectively
