Valon Kone supplied two identical VK8068HDSL single rotor debarkers. The customer debarks presorted spruce logs with an average log length of 4,0 m and the log diameter of 230 mm.
Valon Kone debarkers have a VK8000 frame, which is the heaviest frame type available from VK. The modular frames are of heavy duty (HD) range which are designed particularly for high-speed production plants, like Labe Wood.
The VK debarkers in the sawmill infeed require high availability and reliability in a two-shift operation. “It became clear in the very early stage of the project that air seal debarking rotors with a pneumatic tool pressure are required for the sawmill”, says area manager of Valon Kone, Maximilian Riegg. “Dia 680 mm rotors in both debarkers guarantee high-speed debarking and the best possible debarking quality.”
Labe Wood decided to purchase VK debarkers for the project, as the company Maresch from Austria has many years’ experience working with Valon Kone. “Maresch has been satisfied with the long-term co-operation with competent VK employees. And there was no better alternative on the market”, says Radim Strava from Labe Wood.
