FAQ

Apps

Materials can be directly copied and pasted from a list or easily imported using the import function.

An export of the material list is available for feedback.

Labels

It is possible to have HOMAG create an individual layout for you. This service is charged at cost in accordance with HOMAG guidelines. Please contact your Service Company for this.

In our example, you can see the information with which we provide each label for the edge coils.

In principle, a printer can also be assigned to another app (=assistance app) or an additional shelf at the same time. This can be set in the configuration dialogue ( gear wheel at the workstation in the app). Please note, however, that the apps sometimes use different label formats.

You can easily reorder the label rolls via our eShop.
Alternatively, you can also obtain the labels from other sources. Please note the corresponding requirements.

Configuration

Yes, that is possible. The materialAssist app offers the option of creating compartments without LED support.
You then only attach the QR code with the compartment designation and create the spaces in the configuration. You can subsequently store material there using a scan or direct selection in the tablet.

LED strips

Yes, that is possible. Please note that the LED strips have a predefined length. However, unlit areas can still be created and managed in the app without any problems. Here you will find the installation dimensions of the components.

The extension cables for the LED strips are 2.0 m long. You can also add another 2.0 m cable. The extension cables are available in the HOMAG eShop.

The LED strips are available in the following lengths and can be combined up to a total length of 6000 mm:

  • 2,00 m
  • 1,40 m
  • 0,50 m
  • 0,16 m

Up to 4 LED strips with a total length of 6000 mm each can be connected per LED control box.

The LED system available since 2023 makes it possible to connect another LED control box to an output of the LED control box. Since each LED control box has this output, this process can be repeated several times. 

With 2 LED control boxes you can realize e.g. 4 x 6.00 m (1st LED box) + 4 x 6.00 m (2nd LED box) = 48.00 m LED length with one HOMAG CUBE.

More

Yes, that is possible. If an edge code is scanned with the tablet or with the bluetooth scanner connected to the tablet, all available rolls are displayed. The edge code must be printed on the component label or the order sheets as a 1D/2D code. When the code is scanned, the app searches for the material and activates the LED bars of the corresponding rack.

No. The boxes are not necessary for working with the edge rack. They represent an optional added value, as the edges can additionally be stored in the box protected from dirt, damage and UV radiation. The edge boxes are currently not available.

Yes, this is possible for certain HOMAG series. The prerequisite is woodCommander 5, but you can also use it very flexibly in conjunction with other machines. You can simply continue to use your processing programmes on the machine as previously. You then enter the consumption directly into the app when you put the edgeband back on the rack. Alternatively, you can have the remaining length calculated automatically by measuring the outer and inner diameter of the roll. Thus, the edge management can be used for any type of machine.
