Production line and factory setup overview
Produces solid and engineered wooden doors from conditioned timber, veneers or boards through grading, kiln conditioning, ripping/planing, finger-joint/lamination where used, panel/frame machining, pressing, sanding, edge preparation, finishing, hardware drilling and protected packing.
Recommended lowest-entry line configuration Launch with one door construction and controlled moisture target. Afghan/local timber must be graded and dried before machining; confirm warp resistance, glue system, veneer/finish, hardware and installation samples before scaling capacity.
Production process and implementation sequence
- Timber/board receiving and moisture grading
- Kiln conditioning and storage
- Ripping, planing and lamination
- Panel/frame CNC machining
- Pressing and glue cure
- Sanding/edge finishing
- Veneer/paint/finish where specified
- Hardware drilling, inspection and packing
Products, capacity and market fit
- Approve a physical sample and applicable standard.
- Launch with a defined product range and documented tool settings.
- Keep material and quality records for each batch.
- Solid and engineered wooden doors - Wood species/moisture, construction, thickness, flatness, glue bond, veneer/finish, edge quality, hardware preparation and installation tolerance - Homes, hotels, offices, furniture retailers, joinery contractors and renovation projects
