the surface after coating as a result of tension arising during ed during the process.

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 homoge-
neous 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 con-
stantly revealed at their tips. On totally flat surfaces, such as
panels, the Lipprite® abrasive rolls will provide a very inten-
sive brushing and achieve a smooth and homogeneous sur-
face after belt sanding.
Denibbing
before 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 sub-
sequent 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.
after
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.

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 recom-
mended. 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 sub-
sequent operation with a Novofil® abra-
sive 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 densi-
ty and aggressiveness, as well as, process param-
eters to match each specific structure result required.
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.
7
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 deco-
rative 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 appli-

cations 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 den-
sity 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 abra-
siveness of the Tampico fibres will moreover provide the
finest finishing of the surface.
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.

Furniture components
Surfaces are generally polished on a rotary table machine;
however alternative transfer lines may be used. First, the lac-
quered 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 com-
pound 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.

Car interior
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 applica-
tion.Tools such as maxi LM rings in a diameter range of about
960mm are used for polishing as well as for high-gloss fin-
ishing. For each single process step, an especially adapted
emulsion is used.

For heavy duty cleaning of MDF and OSB conveyors, for
example, OSBORN-Unipol recommends the spider brush roll
construction with convenient exchangeable strip brush ele-

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 additional-
ly provide a significant noise reduction compared to solid
rollers. Different configurations are possible: continuous den-
sity 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.
High load conveying with Load Runners®

The name Load Runners® stands for five decades of experi-
ence in manufacturing of idler rollers and guidance systems
for precision handling of heavy loads in tough environments.
