The portable edge bander PEB 500 V is designed for precision, ease of use, and comfort in professional edge banding operations on wooden panels and derivatives. The adjustable guide system allows for easy work on edges of varying thicknesses and heights, adapting to straight or shaped surfaces. The two rubberized handles and height-adjustable guide plate ensure stability and extended use without fatigue. The continuously adjustable feed speed allows for uniform edge application, while the adjustable temperature and rapid heating improve operational efficiency. It is suitable for ABS, PVC, melamine, and veneer edges, offering great flexibility in the workshop and on-site.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between DR, EBM, and PEB in the Bernardo edge bander range?
DR 500 / DR 500 S: stationary fixed edge banders with automatic motorized feed — for series production with consistent quality on long runs. EBM 50 E / EBM 60 Profi: mobile edge banders with adjustable electric feed, more versatile for workshops with varied production. PEB 300 / PEB 500 V: manual portable edge banders or with variable feed (V) — the most economical, suitable for low-volume artisanal production.
What type of glue does it use and how long does it take to heat up?
All Bernardo edge banders use granular EVA hot melt glue dissolved in a heated tank. Heating time is typically 4–8 minutes. Keep the glue at the correct temperature for the type of edge: standard PVC 140–160°C, ABS 160–180°C, thick edges 180–200°C. Replacement granular EVA glue is available from Krollit.
What edge thicknesses are compatible?
PEB edge banders work with edges from 0.3 to 3.0 mm. DR and EBM edge banders typically accept edges from 0.4 mm up to 3.0 mm, with feed speed adaptable to the thickness. For edges over 3 mm or solid wood edges, different specialized equipment is needed.
How do you clean the glue pot?
While the glue is still hot (never cold): empty the pot with a special scraper, then clean any residue with absorbent paper while the pot is still hot. Do not use water. If the glue has hardened cold, reheat the machine until the glue softens and then proceed with cleaning while the machine is hot.
