Set the edge finish for each side

Description
This section of the interface makes it possible to choose on which side(s) of a panel edgeband should be applied. By checking the boxes next to the desired edges (L1, L2, W1 and W2), the selected edgeband is set to the corresponding edge. Different edge finishes can be applied to each side of a panel.
It’s good to know that the edgebanding feature in Para-Flex is, of course, designed for edgebanding, but can also be used for overlength per side. That’s why we use both the terms “edge finishing” and “edgebanding.”
The left section of the menu bar (Materials) displays the finishes available in the current 3D model. The top row applies to the base materials (panels, profiles), while the bottom row applies to edges.
See the page on searching the database to add specific edge finish types to the 3D model so they can be applied to the edges. The Applying Materials section explains how to create or edit edge finish types.
By default, the drop-down lists on the right side of the menu bar display the material that was last selected for the edge finishes in the model. These lists can be used to apply a specific finish to each of the four edges.
Conditions
- Only applicable to parts with a material assigned to it.
- The labeling of edges is based on the parts’ origin, see the Guidelines in the Basics Section for more information.
- Para-Flex handles a maximum of 4 sides per panel by default. Please contact us if control over more edges is desired.
Tip
There are many ways to add overlength to an item handled by Para-Flex, see the FAQ section to find out more.
