Planing Line Stacker
Product description
Renholm’s package layer puts finished product packages in planing mills and other processing facilities. A continuous flow of pieces of timber is recorded and marked before the layers are stacked into finished product packages. The package layer handles all types of packages such as full packages, half packages, and quarter packages. Binding strips are placed in the packages between predetermined layers. Binding strips are manually loaded into a cassette from the gangway alongside the machine. The binding strips are then cut to the correct length for the current package width.

Function description
The pieces of timber enter the stacking section individually via a chain conveyor. A layer of timber pieces is then formed on a set of two adjacent chain conveyors. When one chain conveyor has captured a layer, it accelerates the layer at the correct speed, at which point the laying arms take over the layer and place it on the lift consoles.
The second of the two adjacent chains then receives subsequent pieces of timber and forms a new layer. The procedure is repeated until the package is complete. When the timber layer is placed on the lift consoles, they are lowered by the corresponding height. Binding strips are placed between certain layers to hold the package together. The laying arms and lift consoles are raised and lowered using gear motors.
