Description
The PC200 Single End Power Feed Trim Saw is engineered to efficiently trim the ends of deck boards and stringers for manufacturing recycled pallets. Ideal for pallet recycling and remanufacturing operations, the PC200 trims the ends of boards from 0.5m to 1.7m long, up to 50mm thick and 254mm wide at rates of up to 12,000 boards per 8-hour shift. The PC200 features an overhead blade design for reduced board kickback, electronic variable feed speed for optimum production, and a gravity-assist incline feed system for efficient material flow. A typical pallet recycling system will include 2 or 3 Pallet Hawg® Pallet Dismantlers for each PC200 Single End Power Feed Trim Saw in order to dismantle a pallet and trim boards into smaller material for assembly of a recycled pallet.
Operation
With the easy to read scale, four quick-adjust board stops are set from 0.5m to 1.7m at the desired board lengths. The operator turns on the blade motor and power feed with a single on/off switch and adjusts the variable feed speed for optimum efficiency. Boards at varying lengths are loaded onto the gravity-assist incline table that includes three heavy-duty #2060 roller feed chains with 304mm spacing. The lugs on the chains move boards up the table through the 457mm diameter nail-resistant carbide-tipped blade and one end of the board is trimmed. Next to the blade, trim cuts from each board are dropped onto a conveyor system or into a container for recycling. Trimmed boards continue moving up the incline table to the 1.45m drop height and drop onto a sorting table or into a bin for further processing. Blades are able to be resharpened and changing a blade is easy with the removable blade plate. For added safety features, all chain sprockets are enclosed below the table, two emergency stops are located on the machine, and a convenient reversing switch assists with jammed material.
The PC200 Single End Power Feed Trim Saw is backed by the same level of service, quality, and safety features shared by the entire family of Wood-Mizer wood processing and pallet recycling equipment.
