PEZZOLATO TM1200/TB900 $457,897 +gst

The wide availability of large diameter logs, not suitable for export or sawmill processing, allowed Pezzolato to develop a new set up for high quality firewood by processing logs with diameters even larger than 1 meter.

This set up is divided into 2 units:

TM 1200 – CUTTING UNIT with a conveyor system to cut logs of any type. This system is capable of being fully automated.

The machine has a large thickness of 30 mm feeding cradle which can support logs with a length of 6 meters (longer on demand) and a max diameter of 1200 mm.

The logs, by means of a rear pushing unit, are pushed onto the chain saw unit and blocked there before being cut by a 72" Bar 3/4" Chain.

The chain saw unit, sliding vertically, is driven by an electric motor with a power up to 22 kW (30 hp).

TB900 or TB1200 – SPLITTING UNIT is equipped with an automatic vertical splitting system, able to process any type of logs, with a diameter range varying from 300 to 1200 mm and a maximum height 500 mm.

This unit has adjustable pitch feeding and is driven by a 22kW (30hp) electric motor; the splitting power can be 40 or 50 tons.

The feeding chain is strong thanks to its closed links and has a length of 1600 mm, (it could be longer on demand.)

By means of this chain, the cut logs pass through the action of the splitting wedge. The dimensions of the output wood can be set electronically, from a minimal splitting measure is 20 x 20 mm for kindling.

TB 900 machine on average produces 18/20 bulk cubic meters (5,04/5,6 bulk cords) per hour of cut logs 250 mm height with splitting size 90 x 90 mm.

Price of this machine will vary based on the optional extras that are chosen. Units can be purchased individually. To see this machine working: https://youtu.be/1s2c9t4yFXQ
