What You Need to Know About Maintaining Bürkle and Wemhöner Membrane Presses

With the right maintenance, Bürkle and Wemhöner membrane presses deliver high performance for years. We have compiled the key points to consider regarding spare parts and service.

Bürkle and Wemhöner are among the most widely used membrane press brands in the furniture and laminating industry. The efficiency of these presses is directly linked to regular maintenance, the right spare parts and timely service.

Key points in regular maintenance

  • Periodic wear inspection of the pins and pin plates.
  • Monitoring the condition of the membranes and covers.
  • Regular inspection of the heating and vacuum system.
  • Timely replacement of worn parts with original-quality components.

What to look for in spare parts

Incompatible or low-quality parts may seem cheap in the short term, but they reduce pressing quality and increase downtime. Parts manufactured to match the original exactly, in the correct material and tolerance, are more economical in the long run.
