Robust technology for processing heavy hardwood logs

Designing and implementing logyards for heavy hardwood logs presents an exceptional challenge - even for experienced specialistes like HOLTEC. The logs to be processed are often extremely heavy, exceptionally thick and frequently irregularly shaped or curved. Their precise and gentle handling requires the highes level of accuracy and specialised technology to ensure optimal processing and top-quality results.

In hardwood systems speed is not the primary focus. Instead, a controlled and gentle material flow is essential. Every log movement must be precisely coordinated and carefully cushioned to guarantee a smooth and continuous operation.

HOLTEC meets these demands with extremely robust, tailor-made solutions that perform reliably even under the most demanding conditions. With innovative concepts and decades of experience, we develop systems that meet the special requirements of heavy hardwood processing - technology that goes far beyond the standard.
