Wood/Log Debarker Machine

Log debarker is an important piece of equipment used in the logging industry to remove log bark. This equipment is a machine designed to remove bark from coniferous (softwood) and deciduous (hardwood) logs. The types of milling debarkers we offer can remove bark from fir, spruce or pine trees as well as hardwoods including oak or beech logs.

What is a log debarker?

It is a heavy-duty machine whose function is to remove the bark from logs and reduce their diameter, making them easier to handle and process. There are many different types of peelers on the market, but they all generally work in a similar way. The wood is placed on the machine's feed table and fed into the rotating blades of the debarking machine. The blades peel away the bark, leaving smooth, bare wood. Wood rotary cutting machine is suitable for plywood factories, veneer factories, lumber factories, etc. It is one of the wood processing machinery product series.

The working principle of wood debarker machine

The wood debarker machine can peel the bark of various woods, and the peeling rate can reach more than 95%. At the same time, the knots and irregular parts of the outer circumference of the wood can be shaved off at once, and then transferred to the next process - log peeling. The efficiency is greatly improved, and the thickness uniformity of the rotary cut veneer is improved. The bark contains the cambium layer, the living part of the tree that helps transport water and nutrients. This layer causes the wood to expand and contract, causing cracks and warping. Therefore, using a wood debarker to remove bark can avoid these problems and facilitate subsequent processing. The machine uses rotating blades to strip the bark off the tree while a conveyor belt moves the logs through the machine. Depending on the type of machine, the wood can be peeled while still round or cut into squares before passing through the machine.

What are the benefits of using a Log Debarker Machine?

1. Improve efficiency

The most obvious thing about this device is that it saves time and increases productivity, as it helps speed up the process of debarking logs. The machine can peel bark off trees in minutes. Previously, workers had to use hand tools to remove bark from the wood, a time-consuming and laborious process. However, with a log debarker, the process can be completed faster and easier, making the operation more efficient.

2. Quality improvement

Another benefit of using a log debarker is the improved quality of the boards produced. By peeling bark from a log, you ensure even and complete removal of the bark. This gives your finished product a cleaner, smoother appearance while also improving the overall quality of the finished product. Additionally, peels are less likely to rot or rot, which means they last longer and can be used in a wider variety of applications.

3. Safer operation

Manual skinning poses significant risks to the operator as it requires the use of sharp tools and requires a lot of physical strength. The simultaneous use of a debarker keeps these sheets stable and stationary, minimizing the chance of worker accidents and injuries.
