Stick placer systems

SPRINGER’s stick placer systems are fully automated, low in maintenance, and can be integrated into existing third-party machinery.

Bundling

SPRINGER packing systems and bundlers guarantee smooth material flow. When a stack and pack width can be varied, SPRINGER’s bundling solution allows single layers or boards to be bundled in a stack or pack. Layer cross-cutting or multi-layer cross-cutting, fully automatic stick laying, or stick laying with stick magazines that can be filled manually can also be integrated.

Dual fork stackers

Despite low acceleration, SPRINGER’s dual forks enable high-capacity stacking. While one set of forks transfers the tear to the lift table, the second one is already waiting for the next tear. As soon as the first set of forks moves to the rear, the second set of forks moves the tear to the front. The advantages of this stacking method are very noticeable on dry end side.

Box stacking

A SPRINGER box stacking layout enables different board lengths to be fed to the stacker section. A uniform package edge is still formed on both sides of the package. The key advantage of this SPRINGER solution is that the drying chambers can be used to maximum efficiency.

Step unscrambler

SPRINGER’s step unscrambler makes it possible to align and pre-separate thin and narrow boards in front of the unscrambler. In systems where a diverse range of wood sizes are sorted, the step unscrambler can also be optionally bridged, so that large sizes can still be fed directly to the unscrambler.

Sorting systems

Efficient and material-friendly: SPRINGER timber lines are used for pre-sorting directly after the sawmill or for the dry end. SPRINGER has developed different lumber sorting systems for diverse requirements when sorting green and dried timber. In addition to horizontal sorting lines, SPRINGER also offers sorting lines with drop bin systems. Regardless of how the sorting line is designed, the boards are sorted into single bins depending on their sizes and quality.

Servo feeder

The boards are transferred as a layer in a controlled manner via an accumulation section to the SPRINGER servo feeder and then fed individually or one after the other to the following cross conveyor or measurement cross conveyor. A key advantage of SPRINGER’s servo feeder is that the machine can adapt automatically and efficiently to the sizes of each board in a gentle way.

180 deg conveyors

Individually customized to customer requirements: SPRINGER’s curved conveyors are used to transport the boards on the lumber line at a particular angle. The angle of the curved conveyor can be selected as required up to 180°, which allows the direction of the lumber sorting line to be selected as desired.

Reject board trimming system

With SPRINGER’s reject board trimming system, poor-quality boards are cut up using a hydraulic blade. This allows for short pieces easily to be fed to a chipper or container.

Broken stick system

Boards that don’t comply with quality standards or could cause disturbances in further transport are removed manually. To eject the rejects from the layer of boards quickly without speed reduction or stops, the conveyor arms can be swung down individually, depending on the length of the wood.
