Operation
With the easy to read scale, four quick-adjust board stops are set from 21” to 66” 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 12” spacing. The lugs on the chains move boards up the table through the 18” 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 58” 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.
Built in the USA, 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.
