MEMBRANES FOR BUGATOOL VACUUM PRESSES
BUGATOOL is a Spanish manufacturer of industrial equipment, known for its solutions in vacuum pressing and thermoforming. For more than 40 years, the company has been developing machinery for the furniture industry, wood-based panel processing, and the forming of modern materials, with a strong focus on temperature control and process stability.
BUGATOOL vacuum presses are designed for technologically demanding applications where precise shape replication, uniform material pressure, and resistance to prolonged thermal loads are essential. Under these conditions, the membrane becomes a key working component that directly affects the quality of the finished product.
This category features rubber and silicone membranes intended for use in BUGATOOL vacuum and membrane presses, selected with regard to their design characteristics and operating parameters.
The most well-known BUGATOOL vacuum press series include:
- BUGA Press — presses for forming and surface covering with an emphasis on uniform vacuum distribution;
- BUGA Duo — combined systems with heating for thermoforming and laminating;
- ROBO — equipment for 3D laminating and parts with complex geometry.
Membrane selection for BUGATOOL presses
The operating parameters of BUGATOOL presses require membranes with predictable and consistent performance. Depending on the material and production technology, two types of membranes are used.
Rubber membranes
Natural rubber membranes are used in applications where maximum elasticity and accurate adaptation to the shape of the workpiece are required. They are suitable for classic veneer pressing operations and ensure uniform pressure without local stress points.
Silicone membranes
Silicone membranes are applied in heated processes where stable material properties at high temperatures are essential. They are especially demanded in thermoforming, PVC foil pressing, and the processing of modern synthetic and composite materials.
Practical advantages of membranes for BUGATOOL
- optimal compatibility with BUGATOOL vacuum and membrane presses;
- stable material behavior during repeated production cycles;
- uniform forming without surface defects;
- reduced equipment wear due to correct membrane performance;
- the ability to select membrane specifications for a specific technology.
Why the membrane is critical for pressing quality
In BUGATOOL presses, the membrane operates under constant mechanical loads and temperature fluctuations. An unsuitable material may lead to surface defects and reduced equipment service life.
Using professional rubber and silicone membranes ensures repeatable results, process stability, and high product quality even in complex production tasks.
