Brunette

Brunette Retract-to-Load (RTL) Log Singulator is designed to improve production and add profits. The innovative design’s expanding and contracting steps assist in log separation and rotation. In addition, the patented RTL nose piece provides secondary log singulation right at the top of the unit, reducing log gap and improving piece count. The unit is balanced over center at the park or “pre-load” position. At this point all torque is negative creating negative inertia which increases acceleration and significantly reduces energy consumption. The RTL is in motion from the point where inertia is neutral (loading position) to the point where inertia is negative (park position); there is virtually no start and stop impact force on the drive components.

The patented RTL technology and the Negative Inertia Drive System are the two main advantages of the RTL log singulator. Other key features include improved log singulation; pre-staged log positioning; widths to suit 8-24 ft. log lengths; minimized shock loading; heavy duty frame construction; electric drive—outboard; lockable top/bottom stages; oversized bearings; heavy duty crank arm assembly; reinforced steps; easy to replace, heavy duty mechanical components. The robust heavy duty construction and innovative design of the Brunette RTL Log Singulator helps improve mill efficiency, reduce downtime, and lower operating costs.

Cooper Machine

Cooper Machine has been “Home of the Scragg” for more than 40 years. While we are best known for our overhead and chain scraggs, we also like to keep up with the times and technology to supply what our customers need to make their mills more profitable and efficient.

We offer a large variety of labor saving equipment to process both hardwoods and softwoods. We cover from merchandising logs to producing lumber, cants, ties, mats and pallets to sorting these products.

Cooper Machine is offering a merchandising line with single or multiple saws to cut treelength logs into specific sizes. This can be used for both logs as well as other round materials such as posts, poles etc. We also have a sorting system for round products as well to either sort onto the ground, in a bunk or a pocket. This can be modified to fit the customer’s specific needs.

And now we are partnering with EWD to provide more quality equipment that will open up even more production and efficiencies for some of our customers including high production edgers, sash gangs, chipper canters and band give us a call and give us a chance to show you what Cooper,

Fiberpro

FiberPro specializes in high speed/high recovery merchandising/ roundwood handling systems for corporate and independent clients as well as softwood and hardwood applications. The company’s history and expertise reflect a customized approach so each client has a system designed for their specific needs and future mill production/recovery expansion plans. Our priority is to supply our clients with the highest performing engineered solution that has the highest safety standards and reliability standards in the industry.

FiberPro’s latest generation of merchandiser systems have redundant safety systems integrated into the design and oversized components for increased reliability/uptime compared to past designs. It has taken more than 25 years of constant development and improvements to reach the speeds and productivity the latest generation systems are currently achieving.

The latest design changes are new stem and log singulation systems that utilize an innovative new drive design and are now self-cleaning on the infeed side of the feeder system with either a full plated design or screw technology.

The Log Trimmer saw gallery has an updated lineal guide system that allows the traveling saw modules to be guided on a large center mounted solid steel roundway assembly with a single high efficiency direct interlocking mechanical drive system that allows the modules to travel at speeds in excess of 100 FPM and accel/decel times in less than a quarter of a second for unparalleled shifting performance, safety and repeatable accuracy. Saw modules are designed with such advanced materials as aluminum and advanced drives like servos for added speed/strength with less mass to move.

FiberPro’s goal is to help the industry with solutions through experience and new innovative designs allowing Fiberpro to be the go-to guys for wood yard technology and lumber handling solutions.
