Vibratory Log Decks

Vibratory Log Decks

General Kinematics’ Vibratory Log Decks are a reliable and efficient log handling solution for the wood processing industry. They efficiently move raw logs from one area to another, typically from the log yard to the debarking, chipping, or processing stations. Handling saw mill residue, such as slabs, edgings and lily pads, is no problem. Available in various conveying speeds, they can be tailored to your application’s material handling requirements.

GK vibratory log decks streamline log handling operations and enhance your system’s productivity while minimizing maintenance requirements. Unlike conventional chain log decks, GK vibratory technology eliminates rotating parts, meaning less cleaning, fewer breakdowns, and significantly reduced maintenance downtime. They are built with heavy-duty components to withstand the demanding environments of all wood processing facilities, providing long-term performance.

Utilizing General Kinematics’ proven SYNCRO-COIL® technology, they employ a natural frequency design that reduces energy consumption and ensures smooth material movement.

Benefits

  • Vibratory motion facilitates consistent and controlled log feeding, optimizing downstream processing and operational efficiency.
