| SPECIFICATIONS
Designed to reduce the butt swell on softwood or hardwood logs ranging from 6-48" in diameter and 6' to tree length, our 40" long cutter head utilizes staggered carbide tipped knives to give a smooth finish. Unlike many systems available today, our standard cutting head feeds from the underside to give a perfect reduction in line with the natural log taper. This creates a butt flare reduction in line with the longitudinal axis of the log without reducing log volume.
The overhead wheels apply enough pressure to prevent the log from skewing or bucking, ensuring a consistent depth of cut every time.
The standard unit comes complete with hydraulically powered turning wheels and wheel aggressiveness control attachments. Our combination debarker/reducer units utilize all of the features of the standard log reducer while adding a carriage mounted Rosser Head Debarker. These units are available in the high production, bottom mounted reducer, or the lower cost, overhead carriage mounted reducer designs.
The turning wheels come with smooth attachments that allow you to reduce the aggressiveness of the feed rollers. |
