Enhancing Efficiency in Production
with Ferroplan Conveyor Systems
Ferroplan’s conveyor systems play a pivotal role in optimizing and enhancing the efficiency of production processes
in the forest and sawmill industry. These systems offer a countless of versatile benefits, particularly in financial and
operational aspects.
Mechanical forest & sawmill industry
The forest and sawmill industry has a significant need for a variety of conveyors. This is because it’s an industry where there’s a need to transport products at different stages from one place to another within production facilities.
Investing in sustainable and innovative conveyors is worthwhile, as it improves production efficiency and enhances overall results. Ferroplan’s conveyor systems are used in various industries, from storage to manufacturing, and from automotive to waste handling. However, we also offer a wide range of conveyors perfectly suited to the demanding environments and specific needs of the mechanical forest and sawmill industry. Ferroplan’s conveyor systems are suitable for handling various wood products at different stages and ensuring uninterrupted production.
Conveyor systems for different applications
Ferroplan conveyor systems facilitate the transfer of various materials within production facilities. From logs, bundles of boards, lumber packages, stacks of battens, to bark, wood chips and sawdust everything can be managed with different types of conveyors. Ferroplan is well-known for its unique conveyor solutions, which means we customize to preciously fit the customer’s needs and production facility.
Different types of measurement and log conveyors are suitable, for instance, for transporting large logs before and after debarking. Various sizes and types of saw feed conveyors, incorporating log conveyors, log kickers, step feeders, and measuring conveyors. They seamlessly collaborate making them an excellent addition to different setups. Additionally, transporting by-products such as wood chips, bark, and sawdust to desired locations is achievable with various belt and trough belt conveyors, ensuring the overall solution for the production facility is clean and reliable.
Specialty conveyors for specialized needs
Through preliminary design, we ensure that each customer’s unique requirement is met. The structure of our conveyors can be tailored to various dimensions and configurations, making it possible to adapt the conveyor system to a wide range of environments.
Ferroplan conveyors can be acquired individually, but we also design comprehensive solutions that address specific customer needs and requirements. In the preliminary design phase, we also address risk management by conducting a risk analysis, model profitability calculations, and create mechanical, automation, and installation plans. Through preliminary design, you can be assured that the result will be an efficient and reliable material handling system, with optimized costs and consideration for space constraints.
