Twenty years ago KÜNDIG aimed to develop edge and widebelt sanding machines of an absolute top class. Today we have reached this goal as various awards and an enthusiastic response from those that use our machines show. Our patented oblique sanding technique has shown the way to the future in the technology of widebelt sanding machines. Therefore, the honouring with the „Challenger Award“ at the most important American woodworking show (IWF, Atlanta, USA) is not only an important recognition but also a motivation to new challenges.

In the past decades Kündig has invested a lot of work in the research of sanding processes. Different findings have led to important innovations like for example the automatic thickness measuring over the whole working width or the direct storage of actual operation settings. The biggest success we owe to the development of the oblique sanding technique. 

The ease of operation

KÜNDIG widebelt sanders are designed to make the operator‘s work as comfortable as possible. This is guaranteed by the well proven machine‘s head adjustment with the constant working level and the clearly arranged control panel. Studies on working processes have shown that with individual production, the direct handling of familiar control elements is far safer and quicker than with menu-controls. Alternatively, for repeating sanding operations a screen-controlled programmer is preferred. KÜNDIG has realized these ideas and developed a clear operation panel with both control elements. 

With the mechanical engineering, care and reliability for us are of the utmost importance. This goes from the initial design, to the choice of the components and parts, during the precise construction, to the commissioning of the machine with the customer. It is the only way to guarantee that after many years of use, our sanding machines work as precise as the first day they were installed. Also with our latest development, the eco* energy saving mode, we have responded to the legitimate claims for an economical use of resources.
