Nordautomation products

Nordautomation’s products for sawmills are divided in two categories: Log handling and by-product (residue) handling technologies.

Log handling:

• log tables / feeder decks
• step feeders
• log conveyors and kickers
• metal detector conveyors
• scrap sorting conveyors
• log bins
• scraper conveyors
• bark conveyors
• revolver turners and curve conveyors

By-product handling:

• conveyor systems for bark, wood chips and saw dust

Trends in the modern log sorting line are high capacities, fast conveyor systems, low maintenance requirements and high availability even in severe conditions. Nordautomation's equipment and systems are able to meet all these challenging requirements.

If the maximum capacity of a sawmill is to be achieved, the highest possible operating rate must also be targeted. The technical availability of the sawmill’s equipment plays a big role in this. The log handling, sorting and infeed solutions provided by Nordautomation always achieve a technical availability of at least 99 per cent, which improves the efficiency of the entire sawmill.
