Wood Processing

Andritz provides customers with one-source supply of wood, chip and bark processing systems as well as the process control systems. Our process expertise and advanced control systems ensure flexible and efficient operation.  

Higher product quality and plant availability
Depending the type of the process the end product of the woodroom is the most high quality logs or chips. Both should be produced with minimal raw material loss. With the help of Andritz Wood Processing process control the yield and quality of the end product can be increased by cutting the raw material loss and thus the capacity and availability of the woodyard can be optimized in all process conditions.

Andritz utilizes the latest automation technology to satisfy customer needs and quality demands. This translates into low operational costs, high availability, and a safe, environmentally responsible workplace.
Since late 80’s Andritz has delivered automation and electrification systems to nearly 100 woodyards all over the world. The deliveries have ranged from basic process control systems to turnkey deliveries including process control, electrification and process monitoring systems.
We are committed to ISO 9001 quality standard. Safety has a great importance in electrical and automation deliveries. Therefore all our deliveries comply with the European Harmonized Standards or with applicable local standards.

Our solutions grow with your business
In order to keep up with the constantly growing requirements of the pulp and paper industry, Andritz conducts continuous research and development work on woodyard process control.  We have developed several advanced automation products:

The DrumMatic™ Process Optimization System controls the debarking process so that the desired capacity and degree of cleanliness are obtained with minimum wood losses.
The BarkScan™ is a system for measuring the quantity of good wood in bark in real time. It transmits the information to the process control system.
The LogScan™ Sorting Equipment provides accurate sorting of the debarked groundwood logs according to the dimension and cleanliness.
The WoodScan™ is a system for measuring the amount of bark in wood logs after debarking in real time. It transmits the information to the process control system.
The Automated Grinder Charging System provides uniform and constant wood supply to the grinding machines.
