1.BUILT FOR FLAT PANELS THAT MATTER: HC R-RP is engineered for flat sanding of plywood, MDF, particleboard and solid-wood panels — the panels where thickness precision and surface finish decide whether they sell as premium stock.
2.DUAL-STRUCTURE SANDING HEAD: An eccentric steel roller (#1) removes stock efficiently; an R-P (roller + pad) structure (#2) delivers the fine finish. Two heads means one pass produces panels ready to coat.
3.SIEMENS OR MITSUBISHI PLC + 99 PROGRAMS: Choice of premium PLC brand at order — both with a touchscreen HMI that stores up to 99 sanding programs. Recall a customer spec in seconds, no manual setup.
4.3-ROLLER FEEDING — NO "FALSE HEAD/TAIL": The three-roller feeding system holds panel thickness uniform from edge to edge — solving the "false head/tail" problem where two-roller systems thin out at the ends.
5.PREMIUM SANDING-BELT COMPATIBILITY: Designed for 3M, Mirka, Sia Abrasives, Klingspor and other top-tier industrial sanding belts — no compromise on the consumable that decides your finish quality.
6.16h+ CONTINUOUS DAILY DUTY: A 4,100 kg welded steel frame absorbs vibration and keeps thickness accuracy stable across double-shift, 16h+ daily production.

Not sure which HC R-RP model to specify? Use this quick logic:
By panel width:
• Panels ≤ 630 mm (small batches, narrow stock) → HC R-RP 630
• Panels ≤ 1,000 mm (standard plywood/MDF production) → HC R-RP 1000
• Panels ≤ 1,300 mm (wide premium panels, high volume) → HC R-RP 1300
By throughput requirement:
• Entry-scale flat-panel shop → HC R-RP 630
• Standard plywood / cabinet-panel producer → HC R-RP 1000
• High-volume plywood mill or premium furniture-panel line → HC R-RP 1300
Not sure between 1000 and 1300? Choose HC R-RP 1300 if you anticipate wider panels within 12-24 months, or if you already run any panels > 1,000 mm — the 300 mm extra capacity future-proofs the investment.
Manual sanding or single-head machines force you to run panels through twice — first for calibration, then for finish. HC R-RP's dual-structure head (eccentric roller + R-P) completes both in one pass, at 20.18 m/s belt speed, with Ra ≤ 1.6 μm finish quality.

Q: What does the HC R-RP do?
A: It flat-sands plywood, MDF, particleboard and solid-wood panels — both calibrating (thickness accuracy) and finishing (Ra ≤ 1.6 μm surface) in a single pass using a dual-structure sanding head (eccentric roller + R-P).
Q: What's the difference between R-RP 630, 1000 and 1300?
A: All three share the same dual-structure head, PLC and belt speed. The number is the working width in mm. Choose 630 for entry/narrow work, 1000 for standard plywood, 1300 for wide panels and high volume.
Q: What's the difference between HC R-RP and HC-G7/G9?
A: HC R-RP is a flat-panel wide belt sander (plywood, MDF, boards). HC-G7/G9 is a brush sander for carved doors, louvered doors and complex furniture panels — where flat sanders can't reach recessed surfaces. Many producers run both.
Q: What PLC does it use?
A: Choose Siemens or Mitsubishi at order — both come with a touchscreen HMI that stores up to 99 sanding programs.
Q: What sanding belts does it use?
A: Designed for premium industrial belts — 3M, Mirka, Sia Abrasives, Klingspor and other top-tier brands.
Q: How fast can it feed?
A: 2-21 m/min for R-RP 1000/1300, or 2-26 m/min for R-RP 630 — adjustable to substrate and finish requirements.
Q: What surface finish can it achieve?
A: Ra ≤ 1.6 μm with fine belts — a finish-ready surface off the machine.
Q: What's the "false head/tail" problem it solves?
A: In two-roller feeding systems, panels lose thickness at the front and back edges as they enter and exit — creating "false head/tail" where the ends are thinner than the middle. HC R-RP's 3-roller feeding holds thickness uniform from edge to edge.
Q: What voltage does it use?
A: Standard 380V / 50Hz / 3-phase, configurable to your market.
Q: Do you provide installation?
A: Yes — HICAS engineers provide on-site installation, commissioning and operator training worldwide, typically 5-7 days.
Q: What payment terms do you accept?
A: 30% T/T deposit, LC at sight, and SINOSURE export credit insurance.
