LINE FOR TREE-LENGTH LOGS

LINE FOR TREE-LENGTH LOGS

At the beginning of the process for manufacturing wood-based panels is the technology for the professional size reduction of the different wood types. The quality of the chips, strands, flakes, or fibers determines the quality of the panel. Anything neglected at this stage of the process cannot be made up later on.    

For this reason Siempelkamp offers the complete range of machines for the production of high-quality chips. Technological competence and intensive development work, based on market and customer requirements, result in optimal customer-specific solutions.
 
The line for tree-length logs is designed for the processing of whole logs with lengths of up to 20 meters: With the log feed, debarker, washing system, dosing system all the way to the highly-efficient disc chippers, the production of high-quality chips is guaranteed.

Features, Function
