It is supported by the infeed log deck, outfeed log bunk, access platform, waste conveyor and control room. Six highly responsive knife arms have adjustable carbide tips providing suitability for seasonal bark removal. The line speed is controlled via a VSD (variable speed drive) and spec to run at 105 metres per minute. Log specifications for processing are a minimum of 100mm and a maximum diameter of 630mm.
