Quality Policy / Processes
With modern testing facilities in-house, and stringent standards to meet, Mangalam Timber is fully geared to ensure that every cubic mm of DURATUFF MDF conforms to Bureau of Indian Standard’s specifications.
It’s policy on quality is programmed to go beyond compliance with applicable legal and other norms towards five overarching, longterm commitments:
Upgrading technology to achieve zero defect quality in product and performance.
Improving productivity and capacity utilisation for enhanced customer satisfaction
Conservation of natural resources.
Steady growth of large scale plantation.
Proactive involvement of the entire workforce by systematic awareness training.
MDF- Why Duratuff
The Advantages
Perfectly smooth, even surface: The surface stands for flawless quality of material and technology – free of defects such as waviness, telescoping, air pockets or other forms of defective bonding.
Excellent workability: DURATUFF MDF can be turned, profiled, routed, carved and grooved – just like wood. It also has superior flexibility and screw-holding capacity. It facilitates mass production, unlike pre-laminated particle boards and plywood. Saves labour and time.
All-round durability: Pre-laminated DURATUFF MDF has powerful resistance against abrasion, household chemicals, steam, cigarette burns and cracking.
Excellence of lamination: The laminated decorative paper forms an integral part of the board, and cannot be de-laminated even under adverse usage conditions.
Super smooth edges: Unlike those of pre-laminated particle board and plywood, DURATUFF MDF’s edges substantially reduce the cost of finishing.
High versatility: It can be laminated, veneered, lacquered, painted, printed, or coated with PVC.
Environment
In its very conception, Mangalam Timber is a green company, committed to preserve India’s natural forest cover, prevents deforestation, by substitution of wood with short cycle timber-based fibre board.
In its day to day plant operations, it is also committed to do its utmost to protect the increasingly fragile human environment. In its continuous effort to preserve and restore the eco-balance, its “Environmental Protection” policy has so far resulted in four major steps:
Effluent treatment plant (ETP) to treat its waste
Boiler stack emission control to prevent smoke pollution
Dust and airborne particle control systems
Water harvesting systems
Manufacturing Process
Stage 1: CHIPPING OF WOOD Logs of eucalyptus, casuarina and acacia firewood are stripped of their bark. A drum chipper reduces the logs into even shaped chips of about 25x25 mm, which are stored in a silo.
To refine them for processing, quantities of chips are placed on a vibrating screen to remove bits of bark, dirt, dust etc. If required, they are soaked in water to increase moisture content and improve the quality of fibre.
They are passed through a vibrating chute and a metal detector drum to remove all traces of metal contaminants. A blower sends all the dust, bark, metal particles etc., from the screen to a dust silo pneumatically.
Stage 2: DEFIBRATING, GLUEING AND DRYING The chips are ‘digested’ in a defibrator for about 4 minutes under pressure (about 8 bar) in saturated steam. Fed into the defibering discs, they are injected with urea formaldehyde resin and other additives through a blow line system into the fibre coming out from the defibrator.
Before defibration, the chips are coated with molten paraffin wax. The glued fibres are simultaneously dried and pneumatically transported by hot air through a dryer ducting system to a cyclone separator, which takes out any defective fibres, and finally, to a scale where they are weighed.
Stage 3: MAT FORMING AND PROCESSING The dry fibres are conveyed to the mat forming system. Here they drop down to a mat former belt, where distribution arms spread the falling fibres into a uniformly even mat.
The thickness of this ‘scalped’ mat will depend upon the thickness of board to be produced. It is run through a series of heavy rollers in a pre-press to compress the mat to about 1/3 thickness. The pre-pressed mat is then passed through a metal detector.
Thereafter, edge-trimming saws trim the edges, while cross-cut saws size the mat to the required lengths of board. The fibres not formed into mats are sucked out by vacuum boxes and recycled.
The mat passes through a series of conveyors to a mat stacker, from where it is fed into the hot press. The hot press allows up to 10 mats to be pressed at a time to the specified thicknesses. Powerful hydraulic pressure and high temperature (produced by steam) make for strong and homogeneous bonding of the fibre mats.
The resulting boards are unloaded on to a conveyor to be fed out, and heat is dissipated by axial exhaust fans. Mats unsuitable for pressing are tippled to a silo for either recycling or transferring to a waste fibre bin through a blower.
Stage 4: COOLING, SANDING & TRIMMING The boards are weighed on a weighing platform, cooled to room temperature in a star cooler, and then stacked on a platform.
Each stack of boards is taken by forklift truck to a roller conveyor, and transferred one by one to a wide-belt sanding machine to be surface-finished. They are then trimmed with the help of saws to the required sizes.
Stage 5: GRADING & STORAGE The trimmed boards are inspected while on the roller conveyors, stacked by grade, and sent for either storage or lamination. The finished non-laminated boards are later despatched to various destinations by truck.
Stage 6: IMPREGNATION Base paper for lamination is unwound from a paper roll, passed through a tray filled with a special resin, and then through dryer chambers. The air in the dryer chambers is heated up to 150°C by thermic fluid circulated through coils heated to 250°C from a thermic fluid heater.
The paper is then cut to the required size and stacked on a scissor lift. The stacks of impregnated paper are then shifted to storage racks in an air-conditioned store.
