Bruks Siwertell company, Bruks Klöckner, has launched a next generation industrial drum chipper, which delivers enhanced performance and increased efficiency, setting a new benchmark in drum chipping technology for handling sawmill byproducts and waste wood.
The next generation DH 365 is an advanced development of Bruks Klöckner’s proven drum chipper model.
“With no steel frame or pit required underneath the machine, the discharge conveyor arrangement can be at ground level, which delivers significant cost savings and installation benefits for customers, and improves accessibility for maintenance,” says Patrick Wicharz, Area Sales Manager, Bruks Siwertell. “Water and debris can collect in pits, leading to rust issues, if you remove the pit, you remove the problem.
“Furthermore, the next generation DH 365 offers a broad range of wood chip lengths from 19mm to 36mm, so customers can tap into various markets, depending on what chip length is required.”
Other key innovations in the new industrial drum chipping model are an enhanced hydraulic system, which has a double-action hand pump. This allows the hood to open more quickly and efficiently as force is generated on both the up and down stroke of the lever. Also, a standard solenoid valve replaces the hydraulic block, ensuring smoother hood closure, free from judders.
The next generation DH 365 drum chipper will make its official debut in Hanover, Germany, at LIGNA 2025, a leading global trade fair for woodworking and wood-processing technology.
