The sharp choice for the sawmill industry
As running costs are enormous for sawmills, they want minimum downtime secured by reliable equipment to avoid losing a great deal of money each minute machines lie idle. Moreover, the powerful forces generated during high-speed sawing make the use of really sharp, resilient and wear-resistant blades crucial.
Although a bandsaw blade, including its maintenance, accounts for just 0.6% of sawmill running costs, Munkfors products result in considerable cost-savings in three main ways:
-
Better utilization of raw materials in the form of higher yields, better sawing accuracy and surface finish.
-
Improved production efficiency through longer running times, higher feed speeds and less maintenance.
-
Higher operational reliability gained through higher capacity.
In addition, Munkfors provides sawmill support by taking full responsibility for blade lifecycles by supplying new blades, resharpening worn blades and evaluating them to give feedback on bandsaw or processing performance.
But no matter where individual sawmills make their priority in this combination of benefits, Munkfors helps them to achieve their production goals.
