USAGE OF SAWMILL WASTE WOOD

SLAB TIMBER FROM THE SAWMILL INDUSTRY

Slab timber is an industrial wood produced by log sorting companies and sawmills. It is a by-product created when logs or trunk wood is cut to into desired lengths. Slab timber is suitable to produce chip board, OSB or MDF boards and can also be reprocessed into firewood or briquettes. Wood chips have also proven their worth as bedding for stables as well as for heating purposes in the form of briquettes.

WOODWORKING WASTE

Production waste from the wood processing industries. When shredding woodworking waste from the wood processing industry, it is very important for the shredding machines to maintain high availability particularly in multi-shift operation. Therefor, we build reliable waste grinders that are particularly designed for day in day out performance. Moreover, the low maintenance requirements further increase availability.

VENEERS

Shredding thin veneers appears to be very easy at first glance. But correct wood grinder configuration is a decisive factor here. With our drum chippers with a pusher feed system offers you a customized wood shredding machine especially designed for shredding veneer.

BARK

Two shredding systems are available for shredding bark pending the moister content. The fast turning drum chippers work well with wet bark, while our HL single-shaft series is the preferred system for dry and hard bark.

PAPER AND CARDBOARD

The reliable shredder-system can cost-effectively reduce and shred the material in advance before cartons and paper are pressed into bales and defibred. This volume reduction step can greatly benefit a recycling companies as well as in recycling centers or cardboard and corrugated cardboard factories.
