TS Lineshaft Trimmers have developed a reputation of high production and low maintenance. Capable of servicing the needs of Sawmills, Planing Mills, and Concentration lines at speeds of 180+ lpm, they offer a versatile and simple system for trimming lumber. Our rugged Lineshaft Trimmer is built with a tubular construction main frame, designed to withstand the rigors of operating at 200+ lpm with high thickness ranges.
A common question about Lineshaft Trimmers is: How do you make belt changes? The TS Lineshaft Trimmer ensures that each belt is accessible without the need to remove bearings. This is achieved via split mini-lineshafts between bearing mounts. Each coupling allows access to 4 saws. Integrated spare belt storage allows up to two belts to be stored with each saw. This allows up to 8 spare belts to be stored for each coupling, preventing the need for long downtime in the rare occurrence of a belt failure. Belt change is a quick and simple process - doable by a single person in under 5 minutes.
TS Lineshaft Trimmers typically have saw spacings from 1 to 2' (300-600mm), but can be configured for less. For challenging length requirements, we offer multiple sawbox configurations (for Precision End Trimming) as well as flying or adjustable 0' saw arrangements.
Each TS Trimmer is provided with an integrated 'gull wing' door system, (including pneumatically operated doors and safety bar), ensuring the system can be safely accessed when the pneumatics are isolated.
Available from 40-150+ hp, the sawbox is always able to provide the required cutting power, increasing belt life in high speed applications.
Modular design in the TS Lineshaft Trimmer allows for the flexibility to meet demanding length specifications. The 1' saw spacing still provides rapid access for all belt and saw changes.
