DUCTA-SERIES™ Rotary Debarking Drum
GK’s DUCTA-SERIES™ Rotary Debarking Drum is a robust and efficient solution designed to streamline the debarking process in the wood processing industry. The drum’s rotary action facilitates thorough bark removal through controlled mechanical agitation, abrasion, and controlled material flow, separating bark from logs of various species and conditions. Our rotary debarker drum systems ensure thorough bark removal with minimal wood loss, enhancing the quality of your raw materials and optimizing downstream operations.
The drum can be fed by power feed conveyors or by chute infeed fed by crane. The feeding system will be adjusted to your wood yard’s setup and processing requirements.
Built to Last, Easy to Maintain
Built with abrasion-resistant steel and forged drive components, our debarking drum is engineered to withstand the rigors of continuous operation in demanding environments. If you use GK’s modular LOCK-TITE™ liner system made with abrasion-resistant steel, you’ll experience less wear and tear than other debarking drums. These liners are easy to swap out compared to other liners as well. DUCTA-SERIES™ Debarking Drums are designed to lower operating costs, and increase operational uptime.
