Advantages

  • up to 116 rootstock per minute
  • About 98% of success rate for the handled effective lengthes
  • The rootstocks exit and the bundles realization are placed on the machine end, on a double gutter, for an optimized production
  • Less than 20 % falls, garanteed

Why buy a BM116 ?

  • I need to smoother production, with improved accuracy and consistency
  • Improve working conditions
  • I cannot find the qualified labor to do it

THE BM116 IN ACTION

MORE DETAILS

  • Cutting and sorting the rootstock in only one automatic operation
  • High performance and reliability compare to a manual process
  • Management of all the operations from the touch-sensitive screen, especially :
    • Rootstock size
    • Heel size
    • The maximum and minimum rootstock diameter
    • How many rootstcoks per bundle ( 50,75,..)
    • Statistics (during the day, production history…)
    • Exportable data for those formats : CSV, XML or BMP
  • The machine is blowing away the falls on the machine side
  • The rootstocks exit and the bundles realization are placed on the machine end, on a double gutter, for an optimized production
  • Silent machine (70 dB)
  • Network connection : RJ45 or USB
  • The material is european standards compliant

Rated performances :

  • Up to 116 rootstocks per minute
  • About 98% produced according to setup length (guaranteed minimum)
  • Less than 20 % falls, garanteed


Exemples 

  • For a 1 000 meters long woods :
    Taking 800 conform wood meters, we got 2 758 rootstock resulting in at least 2 703 conform rootstocks in about 23 minutes*
  • For 1 hour of effective work :
    2 608 of operated raw wood are giving 2 086 meters of conform wood which are producing 7 194 rootstock, resulting in at least 7 051 conform rootstock*
    (*) That 55 rootstock gap is the maximum gap that can happened in case the wood is matching the condition that we have seen earlier. The use of a perfect natural wood would allow the machine to reach 100% of success, resulting in 2 758 corresponding rootstocks in this example.

Conditions that you may respect to get those performances :

  • Use cleaned wood
  • Ensure the maintenance of the machine
  • Control en ensure the filtered compressed air specs


Processing capabilities

  • Kind of wood : Every kind
  • Rootstock size : from 12 to 55 cm
  • Diameter : from 4 to 17 mm
  • Rated speed : 2 meters / second
  • Length and heeling cut precision: +/- 2 mm


Maintenance

  • Blade sharpening  : After about 1 Million rootstock (depends of the kind of wood)
  • Cameras cleaning : 4 times a day
  • Blowing the dirt away : 4 times a day (same as cameras cleaning)


Restrictions

  • Wood has to be : dry, clean and freshly harvested.
  • Non conform wood (uncleaned, wet, regularity, flatness…) may slow and break down the machine performances.
  • The natural wood defects (sickness, hail…) who didn’t cause too many damage to the wood (small cut, small hole,..) are purposely not detected by the machine. So, they are not interpreted like an underperformance. This configuration leaves the possibility of a second manual sorting, according to the user’s choice, to qualify the conformity of rootstocks.
