Function
Receiving wood chips for onward transport to existing buffer stock.
A 24m long tipping hopper receives the wood chips from side-tipping lorries with trailer. The material is fed out of the hopper, first by means of bar feeder which feeds the material towards the middle of the hopper, where rotating spike roller evens out the flow before the material is finally fed out of the hopper with a screw conveyor. After the tipping hopper, the material is lifted vertically 20m with a bucket elevator before it is transported onward on a belt conveyor to the middle of the buffer stock. Here, a mobile reversible belt conveyor takes over and distributes the material in the buffer stock’s longitudinal direction and below this belt conveyor there is a mobile screw conveyor that distributes the material in the buffer stock’s transverse direction. This screw conveyor can serve both output ends of the reversible belt conveyor. The delivery also included the elevator tower as well as modification of the buffer stock’s roof construction.

Forest, paper and pulp
The forestry industry is technology- and knowledge-intensive, and it places high demands on equipment and plants. We design transport systems for handling wood shavings, peat, wood, bark and wood chips, often with associated conveyor bridges. The systems often also include mobile equipment for unloading to stockpiles.
