Our high-performance standard for industrial operations.
(cutting capacity approx. 300.000 - 1,0 million m³)

The changing structure of the European wood industry is placing stringed demands on the machines and conveying systems used by the emerging large-sized companies. High-performance industrial scale production calls for a solid plant engineering capable of addressing specific criteria. Extreme loads in round-the-clock operations and high availability are essential to economical operation. With our solid plus product line we are offering heavy-duty, durable plant engineering of the very finest standard. We are fortunate to be able to call on experience gained through countless completed products in the wood based panel industry, where adaptation to the demands of tough, continuous operation and adverse weather conditions has always been the norm. Profit from our know how.

Conveying systems for long logs and short logs

Conveying systems for long logs and short logs

High feed capacity and numbers of pieces associated with highest standards of the availability are the basic conditions for the development of all conveying systems. We set new standards with our product range solid-plus. Very tear resistant chains, special wear resistant steel and the necessary sophistication in the details characterize our conveying systems. Especially for accelerating short logs HOLTEC set the benchmark in its business sector by developing the v-shaped rollerway log-runner.

log-runner: THE innovation for accelerating logs - hundredfold proven.

Feeding and separating systems

Feeding and separating systems

The system capacity essentially depends on an efficient and high-performance infeed system. Regardless of long logs or short logs – HOLTEC provides a wide range of solutions. Our focus is hereby not only on the production capacity: Infeeds naturally have to bear the highest mechanical loads. Innovative solutions from HOLTEC support to get the “total lifetime costs” under control – i.e. the costs for the total operating time. The reduction of wear and the minimisation of lubricant consumption are of essential importance. With the patented double acting step feeder chainless we separate up to 40 logs / min - with almost no wear and without using chains!

Crosscut lines and crosscut saws

Crosscut lines and crosscut saws

Everything started with cutting logs: For over 40 years and in close cooperation with the company STIHL. From the start with chain saws, now fully automated circular saws are produced - for highest performance in all diameter ranges. As crosscut line, circular saw, chain saw or as combination machine. With belt conveyor or chain conveyors - our experience draws from more than 250 crosscut lines worldwide. Not without being proud we state: HOLTEC - worldwide the number 1 in cutting logs!

Sorting lines with sorting control

Sorting lines with sorting control

Log sorting lines for logs with small, medium and big diameters. In individual design and with the right sorting box concept. In concrete or in steel, as single box or as over-run box – for logs with small and with big diameters. Finished systems with sorting speeds of 200 m/min and up to 100 boxes.

Waste handling of all types

Waste handling of all types

Waste handling of all types Seems to be marginal and is often disregarded. Adapted to the application a suitably dimensioned waste handling is self-profitable. HOLTEC provides solutions from the scraper conveyor via the waste conveyor in chain execution to the conveyor band with metal detection.

As core product to 100% from one source and designed as well as improved with a long-standing know-how.

Electrical control and switch systems / Visualisations

Today systems in the wood industry are complex high-tech machines. With customer-oriented complete solutions HOLTEC provides the corresponding automation. From the switch cabinet construction to the process programming we produce the complete value chain in our own company and therefore, we have under control 100% of what our customers receive.

• Development of customer-specific hardware and software

• Production of electrical components and switch cabinet construction

• Ergonomically designed operator's desks

• Installation and cabling of the delivered systems

• Start-up at site

 

Debarkers and butt reducers

Debarkers and butt reducers

Integration and turn-key deliveries of state-of-the-art debarkers and butt reducers. On demand we supply high-performance debarking and butt-reducing concepts of the market leaders and integrate the systems into the complete process. Electrical control and switchgear systems are included – everything from one source, for minimizing interfaces. Capacities of more than 150 m/min debarking speed are possible today. Also the technology in the field of butt reducers has been continuously improved. Today butt reducing times of less than 4 sec/short log are possible thanks to state-of-the-art technology.
