The integrated line combines state-of-the-art technologies to cover the entire processing cycle: from raw log reception and handling to primary breakdown, edging, multi-rip sawing, and final cross-cutting for the production of wood components and packaging (pallet elements). Thanks to the adoption of advanced fieldbuses (such as IO-Link and protocols compliant with Industry 4.0 directives), the entire plant ensures high performance, real-time diagnostics, and reduced downtime.

1. Sezione Loading and Primary Breakdown Section (Log carriage & Band Sawmill)

• 3-Way Log Loader: Heavy-duty structure in IPE 240 steel for handling logs from 2,500 to 6,000 mm in length and diameters up to 1,000 mm.

•  Log Carriage Model CMOL: Equipped with differential pressure hydraulic dogs (40/80/150 bar) managed by PLC and position transducers. Brushless motor drive and gear reducers ensure rapid positioning up to 600 mm/s.

• Vertical Band Sawmill Model SNV14: High-production hydraulic system featuring 1,400 mm hardened steel flywheels, hydraulic pressure blade guides, and an automatic lubrication system.

• Canter Model PTL 1000: For simultaneous slab chipping and log profiling with a 75 kW motor and a feed speed of 500 mm/s.

• Control Cabin and Console: Ergonomic operator workstation equipped with an Elcaton programmable electronic thickness setter featuring a 15.6” touch screen, cutting-phase monitoring cameras, and a remote technical assistance system.

2. Evacuation, Multi-Rip Saw, and Cross-Cutting Section

• Transfer and Outfeed Roller Conveyors: Robust handling systems featuring transfer chains and motorized rollers for continuous material flow to subsequent phases.

• Thin-Cutting Multi-Rip Saw (Endone A. Costa): Installable power up to 259 HP / 191 kW, maximum saw group width of 500 mm, and cutting height up to 160 mm, complete with pneumatic pressure rollers and automatic lubrication.

• 3-Head Automatic Cross-Cut Saw: Designed for the automatic cycle of end-trimming and packaging 'slab/side-cut' recovery, with a cutting width up to 4,500 mm, PLC management, and 500 mm saw blades.

3. Dust Extraction and Environmental Safety System

• Self-Cleaning Filtering Station (PF JET Series): High-efficiency system with a filtering surface of 228 sqm and an air flow rate of 18,000 m³/h, complete with ATEX 22 explosion-relief valves, extraction screw conveyors, and an integrated fire-suppression system.

• Ferrari Centrifugal Fan (37 kW) and compliant exhaust stack for total cleanliness and a healthy working environment.

• Band Saw Blade Grinder (Alix Model AM 518): For in-house maintenance and constant cutting efficiency of the saw blades. 

• Customized Automation: Mechanical and electronic design, as well as software development, managed entirely in-house to adapt to the customer's space layout and operational workflows.

• Industry 4.0 Compliance: Continuous monitoring of consumption parameters, advanced sensor diagnostics, and integrated remote assistance.

• Reliability and Robustness: Top-quality components designed for heavy-duty, continuous-duty work cycles in the primary breakdown and pallet sectors.
