When was the last time you took a close look at the edges of your finished panels – a really close look? Were the radii absolutely smooth and free from chatter marks? Did you notice any chipping? Did the corners pass the thumbnail test, or did you notice a tiny raise in the edging material that snagged?

With the emphasis firmly on imperceptible glue lines, it makes little sense to ignore imperfections on the edging materials – and to combat such imperfections is one of the key reasons Biesse has introduced its AR70 single-motor corner rounding unit as an option on its mid-range edgebanders.
