ARC Log Pusher
The ‘Advanced Rotary Concept’ (ARC) log pusher was designed to withstand the large impact loads caused by dense large-diameter logs often moving at high speeds. The robust and balanced design does not compromise on productivity or efficacy, achieving better performance than typical pusher designs.
The ‘ARC’ will also reduce mill maintenance and cleaning costs due to the machine’s external drive and mechanism plus minimized debris catch points.
Three Main Design Features:
-
Extremely robust support frame, log lifting arm and drive components.
-
Balanced log lifting arm, external electrical drive & actuating mechanism, plus a minimum frame profile.
-
Residuals removal optimized with an open-end frame and built-in deck tail sprockets for maximum height gain.
Other Benefits Include:
-
Can be customized for unique situations, log diets, and available space.
-
Log landing hopper (not shown) separated from the pusher to isolate log impact loads.
-
Improved drive efficiency from optimized external drive and lifting mechanism.
-
Remote manual greasing for spherical bushings is standard. Optional automatic lubrication is available.
-
All drive components are standard parts and readily available.
-
Includes VFD electrical drive and pre-wired control devices.
-
Includes mechanical safety pin c/w control interlocks.
