What is a Drum Wood Chipper? How Does It Work?

Drum wood chipper is an ideal equipment for producing wood chips, which is widely used in paper mills, particleboard and fiberboard plants, wood chipper production and export bases. Raw materials such as logs, twigs, twigs can be cut into high-quality wood chips with uniform length and thickness. Wood chipper can also be used for wood board processing after a short treatment. If you want to make wood pellets or briquettes from logs, wood chipping is the first step.

Drum wood chipper is characterized by a large electric drum in the center of the machine. It is a special equipment for producing high-quality wood chips for power generation and wood pulp industries. That is why it is popular in places where wood chips are used as raw materials for further production, such as wood pellet plants, particleboard plants, fiberboard plants, biomass power plants, etc. There are many types of chipping materials, such as wood, straw or rice straw, etc. Our wood drum chipper is very strong and scientifically designed to convert wood materials into uniform and high-quality wood chips.

1. Its structure has high quality of cutting sheet materials, wide material adaptability, and convenient operation and maintenance. The machine consists of a machine base, a knife roller, upper and lower feeding rollers, a conveyor belt, a hydraulic system and other parts.

2. The machine base is welded with high-cavity steel plates, which is the supporting foundation of the entire machine; two flying knives are installed on the knife roller, and the flying knives are fixed on the knife roller through a pressure block with specially manufactured flying knife bolts; according to the different thicknesses of the cut materials, the upper feeding roller assembly can float up and down within the corresponding range with the help of the hydraulic system; the qualified sheets cut down fall through the mesh holes and are discharged at the bottom, and the large sheets will be cut again in the machine.

3. Hydraulic system: The hand oil pump supplies oil to the oil cylinder, which can start the cover, facilitate the replacement of the blade, and lift the upper feeding roller assembly during maintenance, which is convenient for adjusting the gap between the flying knife and the bottom knife and the disassembly and assembly of the combing plate.

The drum chipper consists of a machine body, a knife roller, upper and lower feeding rollers, a conveyor belt, a hydraulic system and other parts. The machine body is welded with high-strength steel plates and is the supporting foundation of the whole machine. The knife roller is equipped with a flying knife, which is fixed to the knife roller by a flying knife bolt through a pressure block. According to the thickness of the material being cut, the upper feed roller assembly can float up and down within the corresponding range with the help of a hydraulic system. The qualified flakes cut down fall through the screen holes and are discharged from the bottom. The large flakes will be cut inside the machine.

Drum chipper can cut logs, branches, board skin, waste veneer, bamboo, cotton stalks and other non-wood fiber stems into sheets of certain specifications, which can be used as the basic raw materials for particleboard, fiberboard, non-wood artificial board and pulp and paper making. The machine has advanced structure, high quality of chipping, wide adaptability of raw materials and easy operation and maintenance.
