Robert Bürkle GmbH from Freudenstadt will be presenting its comprehensive portfolio in the field of press and coating technology at LIGNA 2025. As a leading machine and plant manufacturer, Bürkle focuses on the areas of automation, sustainability, digitalization and energy-efficient plant technology. "LIGNA is the most important platform for us to present our latest innovations in wood processing and surface technology. We look forward to entering into dialog with customers and partners, presenting tailor-made solutions and shaping the future of wood processing together," explains Jürgen Schröer, CEO of Robert Bürkle GmbH.

New Ggeneration of all-electric Roller Coating Machines

Bürkle says it is revolutionizing its roller coating technology with the new generation of all-electric roller coating machines. Thanks to innovative drive technology paired with sensor-based detection, the new generation of machines enables consistently precise material application with reduced energy and maintenance requirements. The new roller application machine completely dispenses with pneumatic elements, which further emphasizes the sustainable and energy-efficient basic idea. At the same time, the machine can be fully integrated into digital production environments.

Energy Efficiency and Sustainability

In addition to the new generation of machines, the energy efficiency and sustainability of machines and systems play a major role. Bürkle will be presenting resource-saving enhancements, particularly in the field of coating technology. These include the latest developments in the field of UV LED drying technology. Customers benefit from reduced operating costs and a smaller ecological footprint without having to compromise on the usual performance.

Automation and Digitalization

In addition to the surface technologies of laminating, pressing and lacquering, Bürkle will be focusing on its modular automation solutions at LIGNA 2025, which are designed to be suitable for large-scale systems as well as for medium-sized production companies and the skilled trades. In addition to robot-assisted handling systems, visitors will be able to talk to the company's contacts about everything from intelligent gantry systems to the fully automated control of production lines.

Customized Concepts for every Production Operation

In cooperation with Siemens, Bürkle is presenting state-of-the-art IoT solutions and its new HMI to complement its automation portfolio. Intelligent data analysis and smart production monitoring enable customers to optimize their processes and minimize downtimes. "Increasing efficiency through intelligent automation and digitalization is essential in order to remain competitive. With our modular automation solutions, we offer tailor-made concepts for every production operation. In addition, the IoT solutions in collaboration with Siemens create a smarter, predictive environment with maximum transparency and efficiency," continues Schröer.

High-end Systems for laminating, press Technology and Door Production

As usual, the system manufacturer's LIGNA portfolio includes new high-end system concepts with innovative technology combinations in the areas of painting, laminating, press and door production systems. In particular, the engineering service with digital twins offers customers major benefits in the projects, which will be presented in various application scenarios. The product range is rounded off by a significantly expanded range of services. Here, the retrofit specialists will be presenting their solutions for modernizing existing systems and the portfolio of individual retrofit machines.
