The Lamello P-System
The time-saving joining system with form-locking anchoring

Connect every angle and save time

The Lamello P-System is an innovative and time-saving joining system for wood and wood composites. The Clamex P-14, Tenso P-14 and Divario P-18 connecting fittings enable flexibility, creativity and efficiency throughout the design, manufacturing, transport and assembly process. The positive-locking P-System groove forms the foundation, which is milled into the workpiece using the Zeta P2 biscuit joiner or on a CNC machining centre. The P-System connectors are inserted into the P-System groove by hand in seconds and securely anchored. The wide range of connectors enables almost any application, many angle connections and a variety of functions such as detachable, invisible or slide-in joints.

Aesthetic look with the barely visible 6 mm access hole

Clamex P is a detachable connector and is anchored in the form-locking P-System groove within seconds. Through the minimalist 6 mm access hole, Clamex P is firmly connected and disconnected using a lever.

Clamex P eliminates the need for glue, allows aesthetic joints at all angles and is ideal for permanently joined or detachable mitres.

Features Clamex P

Detachable

Open the connection time and time again with the rotating lever

Aesthetic

The small, hardly visible opening (Ø = 6 mm) serves to close and open the connector

High clamping force

Clamp and glue workpieces at any angle, ~ 80 kg or 170 lb

Stackable

Workpieces with pre-installed P-System connectors are stackable for storage and transport

Versatile

The shallow element depth allows for mitres from 22.5 – 180°, surface, corner and dividing panel connections

High clamping force for perfectly clamped joints without screw clamps and shims

Tenso P-14 is a self-clamping glueing aid and is anchored in the form-locking P-System groove within seconds. The high clamping force of Tenso leads to perfectly clamped joints without the need for clamps or presses, regardless of the angle of the work pieces.

Aesthetic joining is possible without visible connectors, with short assembly times and without the need to wait for the glue to dry.

Features Tenso P

Glueing

Fixed joints of two workpieces

Invisible

No visible connector

High clamping force

Allows for perfect alignment and clamps the workpieces ~ 15 kg or 30 lb

Versatile

Simple glueing of mitre joints

Lower assembly force

In combination with the pretension clip, only a short force impulse is required to snap it into place

Plastic element for Clamex P and Tenso P

Bisco P is a plastic biscuit which fits into the 7 mm P-System groove and is held in the groove due to its surface structure. Bisco P is used in combination with Clamex or Tenso as a cost-effective alignment element and ensures flushness of the joint. The Bisco can also be used as a dry joint as a test before the work piece is permanently joined with Tenso P and adhesive. Bisco P-14 is used in combination with Clamex P-14 or Tenso P-14; and Bisco P-10 with the same connectors in size P-10.

Features Bisco P

Flush alignment

The generous sliding tolerance allows for perfect flush alignment of workpieces

Alternating application

Combination with Clamex or Tenso. Ideal for dry joints before glueing to ensure that the groove fits.

Versatile

The shallow element depth allows for mitres from 22.5 – 180°, surface, corner and dividing panel connections

Perfectly closed joints without visible connectors

Divario P-18 is a detachable connector for slide-in insertion and is anchored in the form-locking P-System groove within seconds. The connector is used to slide shelves or partitions into an already assembed cabinet. In the process, the Divario P-18 clamps the workpieces together firmly and ensures perfectly closed joints without visible connectors. Divario P-18 is used for joining shelves to divisions from 18 mm panel thickness or in butt joints from 12 mm

Features Divario P-18

Sliding insertion

Slide in between two fixed sides or shelves using a guide groove

Invisible

Guiding groove covers the connectors

Clamped joint

No resistance while inserting until shortly before building the clamping force

Fast installation

Quick installation of the connectors without glue after transport

Assemble by sliding

Partially routed guiding groove for completely invisible furniture joints

P-System processing possibilities

Extremely fast, time-saving joining method - Cut. Connect. Done.

The Zeta P2 is the biscuit joiner for P-System connectors and is used to create the formlocking P-System goove within seconds. The integrated vertical mechanical drive is automatically triggered at the maximum cutting depth and performs a lateral cutter movement for the P-System groove. Connectors with various functions and different sizes can now be inserted into the form-locking P-System groove. The insertion into the groove is quick and without tools.
