The Panel Master line of sanders was introduced to the industry in 1983, replacing the American Series sanders. Like the American Series, the Panel Master was primarily designed for sanding OSB and plywood. Portions of the Panel Master were also based on the original Kimwood Smithway and Control Master line of sanders. The Panel Master is available in 4' to 5'-6" widths with each width equipped with a variety of sanding head styles depending on the specific application. |
Typical Sanding Heads:
| |
 |
Opposed Contact Heads:Opposed Contact heads are capable of individual height adjustment via eccentric cams which are mounted on dovetail slides for ease of maintenance. |
 |
Offset Combination Heads:Offset Combination heads have both height adjustable combination contact rolls and flexible platen bars. The combination head is backed up with fixed backup rolls. For ease of maintanence, the combination head units feature dovetail slides. |
Sanding Head Drive:All sanding head motors use banded "V" belts to drive high speed jack shafts featuring short coupled universal drive joint assemblies which are connected to the contact rolls. This allows the contact roll to be vertically adjusted for varied stock removals and different belt grits while maintaining a positive driving torque at all times. |

Retrofits:Kimwood has been involved in the manufacture of sanders for the wood products industry since 1963. Through the years, the sanders have continually been updated to accomodate specific industry applications which characterize the everchanging industry. As the applications have changed so have certain areas of the sanders. In some cases, Kimwood has introduced new models to meet new applications or modified existing models simply to remain competitive in the industry. Irregardless, Kimwood sanders remain the leading sander in the industry today. Click "Sander Retrofits" for available sander upgrades. Roll Inventory Program:The Roll Inventory Program was introduced in September of 1999 when Kimwood began stocking rolls that were in the highest demand. Kimwood has now implemented a revised program that will increase the number and type of rolls held in inventory via component stocking rather than assembled rolls. Component stocking will allow more individual roll parts to be placed in inventory which are used on multiple roll assemblies. This will be advantageous and will increase our ability to meet the high demand rolls needed to help customers during downtime situations. Click "Roll Inventory Program" for more information. Parts, Manuals, & Assembly Drawings:Kimwood maintains historical files for all of it products lines. As a result of this, almost all of the equipment originally supplied can be manufactured from historical files. Kimwood also can reproduce most machine assembly drawings and original manuals for those pieces of equipment. Click "Parts, Manuals, & Assembly Drawings" for more information.
