TRIMMER

Carbotech International offers a full range of trimmers to meet your specific needs. We have the perfect solution to handle your specific wood dimensions, cutting patterns, and space available at your mill.

MULTISAW TRIMMER

First, we developed a high speed multisaw trimmer that can handle your highest production rates. In standard configuration, saws are placed every foot with a 10 hp motor for every saw, two frame panels that serve as maintenance walkways, and saw modules that are quick and easy to maintain. Plus, in our design the chain circles back beneath the waste conveyor to ensure that rejects quickly fall onto the belt and, most importantly, do not become stuck between the chains. Available options include a fully pivoting frame for improved saw access or one or more adjustable saw modules to accommodate custom dimensions for certain markets. You may choose between saws that adjust manually or automatically.

“CANADIAN” TANDEM SAW TRIMMER

We also offer two tandem saw trimmer models: a classic “Canadian” trimmer and an adjustable saw model. The first trimmer requires two operators—one to cut the first end and another on the other side of the machine to cut the other end of the board after a series of chains and rollers push it through. This type of trimmer is still quite common in hardwood and other mills. The second type of trimmer is similar to the multisaw trimmer but with only one fixed saw on the wood line side and one mobile saw on the opposite side. This configuration makes it possible to cut boards to the desired dimensions when space is limited.

LINE SHAFT TRIMMER

CARBOTECH also offers a line shaft trimmer design. This classic design has been totally revised to meet the modern requirements of your mill : - The outer panels transforms into maintenance catwalks; - Saws can be placed at one foot increments; - Our new trimmer will consume up to 55% less energy than a multi-motor trimmer; - It has a separate compartment for pneumatic and electrical feeds and the driving mechanism is separated from the cutting area; - The belts are pneumatically tightened and the driveshaft is in one piece and is factory aligned; - As for maintenance, we have designed this trimmer so that all the major components are readily accessible : you don't have to dismantle any of them to get to another one. Belts can be replaced in seconds without having to touch the driveshaft; - We also offer the option to tilt the entire trimmer top for an even easier access to the saws.
