Quick-Strip System - one tool 4 options


Quick-Strip

The unique Quick-Strip System enables you to keep the brushes and only change the abrasive. This gives you huge savings over time. The brush has an estimated lifetime which is 5-10 times longer than the abrasive. On normal systems the abrasive is attached to the brush, this means that the brush is thrown away alongside the abrasive. With Quick-Strip you simply slide the abrasive out when it is used up. It is very easy and fast and can even be done while the Quick-Strip tool is mounted in the machine.


The Quick-Strip system fits on all QuickWood machines and most other brands. The system can be combined with: the Quick-Edge, Universal-Cut and Dual-Grit tooling systems.

Quick-Edge

It has always been a problem to sand the vertical edge on cabinet doors and the like. The options have been manual sanding or expensive machines involving an extra operation. With the Quick-Edge system all 4 outside edges, the profile and the surface is sanded in one through-feed. The system works with inclined brushes which enables the abrasive to push harder against the edge and hereby create a better sanding result.


The concept lies in the construction of the tool and not the machine. This means that Quick-Edge can work on any rotating through-feed machine and not only QuickWood machinery.

Dual-Grit

Often two different grits are needed for a perfect sanding job. One for sanding before lacquer and another for sanding in between. With the Dual-Grit system abrasives are mounted on each side of the brush. This means that you can change the grit simply by changing the rotations of the sanding drums. By doing this you safe loads of time otherwise spent on changing the tool completely.

Dual-Grit fits in the Quick-Strip system and can be mounted on almost any brush sanding machine. The only requirement is that the rotation of the sanding drums can be reversed.

Universal-Cut

To better suit your profile the abrasive can be cut in a pattern that fits it perfectly. With Universal-Cut the abrasive fingers are cut in an individual size and the corners are rounded. There are numerous advances with this, oscillation on the sanding drums is avoided because the different finger sizes overlap and the overall sanding result is better.

Universal-Cut fits in the Quick-Strip system and can be mounted on Quick-Edge, Dual-Grit and the normal Quick-Strip brush.
