Automatic Log Machining Center
HRP-Logwork is a modern and advanced log machining line. The machine is designed to work
completely independently so that employees are only needed to provide the raw material, blank
logs for it and at the other end of the line to package the final products. Corner joint notching,
T-batten notching, cutting, door and window hole cutting, angle beveling and even labeling of
the logs all take place inside one integrated machining unit. All operations are measured using
very accurate pushing advancer. The blank log is not being removed between procedures which
ensures excellent measurement precision.

HRP-Logwork is able to machine rectangular and round logs as well as their variations like Dprofile logs. All cutting routes and parameters adjust according to the log profile and size. There
is no limit for the minimum size or length of the log and even the maximum size 250mm (w) x
280mm (h) x 12m (l) may be enlarged by customizing the design to meet the client's needs.

The amount of waste pieces is optimized to be as small as possible. All the logs brought to the
automatic feeding table are included in the calculations as software solves what is the most
economic order to manufacture the logs.

Computer software for HRP-Logwork is supplied by Vertex Systems Oy, one of the biggest
software engineering companies in Finland. The software reads directly files created by Vertex's
own designing software, but support for other design software formats can be created when
needed. Cooperation with Vertex guarantees support and software updates for our clients also in
future.
Features briefly:
• Low space requirement due very compact design
• Capacity with two employees 100–120m per hour in basic machining
• Machining round and rectangular log and their variations
• Maximum size of the log 250mm (w) x 280mm (h) x 12m (l)
• Even very short logs can be manufactured because the cutting is
performed as the very last operation
Cornerless joint
• Eight independent drills, capable of drilling through or only half way the
log, from above or below
• Notching for windows and doors. Angle beveling ±90°
• Easy setup, monitoring and reporting with Vertex programs
• Effective optimization ensures low amount of waste pieces. All logs in the
feeding table are included in the calculations.
• Automatic measurement of the blank log.
• Removal of faulty parts of the log.
• Sticker printer or automatic inkjet printer for labeling the logs

Pushing advancer feeds the blank logs into the machining unit and
measures the place for each operation with extreme precision. We also
manufacture these advancers to be added to other log machining tools to
improve their measurement precision and help handling the logs.
