We have spent the beginning of 2016 upgrading our equipment. Our LOGOSOL NORWOOD MX34 BANDMILL has been replaced by MEBOR HTZ 1100 PRO band saw.
Mebor’s automated log loader, away from the operator, makes it safe and easy to load heavy and/or bent logs. With its wider blade and longer bed we can now saw hardwood and softwood logs up to 6m in length and up to 1m in diameter, at a much faster pace. The two sided sorting system allows us to grade and stack faster as well as dispose of waste without having to handle it. Bundled waste is then stored before being chipped into biomass for our biomass boiler. Boards and blocks are then graded by their heartwood content and amount of wane as well as by their thickness and width. At this point some stacks are ready for delivery to a customer whereas others are processed further on our other machines.
