Looking for a New Chipper?

Wednesday, July 25th, 2018

FOR SALE from stock — BRUNETTE Drum Chipper Model 6040.

The BRUNETTE Drum Chipper 6040 is specifically designed to produce quality chips from short material such as trim blocks, log ends, and lily pads. The machine is a Drum type Chipper with knives that extend across the full face width of the drum which ensures uniform chipping and reduces the amount of cards and overs.

A clam shell opening operated by a hydraulic cylinder provides an ergonomically friendly working area for knife change. The knife clamps are designed with a self-opening feature that eliminates the need to remove the clamps or nuts during knife changes. The knife pocket is equipped with counter knives for easy replacement.

Brunette Presents at OptiSaw 2018

Tuesday, May 8th, 2018

Capital is an exciting word in the forestry industry. In the lumber mill business, considering capital expenditure means answering the question: Do you repair or replace, a major piece of equipment?

Patrick Browne ImageBrunette Machinery’s Patrick Browne will present a case study on this issue at OptiSaw — the one-day educational forum aimed at those involved in the sawmill business — happening on June 5, 2018 in Richmond, BC.

Patrick’s study focuses on the log singulator, an innovative machine that notably changed the forest industry in the 1980’s. He explores the pros and cons of investing in the most recent technology or repairing/maintaining existing time-tested units.

OptiSaw, presented by Canadian Forest Industries’ Wood Business, will feature Brunette’s case study along with other topics concerning the future of sawmilling.

Join us at this informative event on June 5th, 2018 at the Sheraton Vancouver Airport Hotel, in Richmond, BC. This forum is geared to people associated with the sawmill industry —sawmill management and owners, process engineers, continual improvement managers, optimization staff, researchers and design consultants.
