Shaving Machine
The Newman Shavings Mill is a horizontal feed machine engineered to convert wood waste (i.e. slabs, edgings, cutoff blocks, trimmings, etc.) into quality agricultural bedding shavings of uniform size and thickness. (Note: The length
of the wood waste, moisture content, and species will affect the SIZE, QUANTITY, and QUALITY of shavings as well
as the percentage of fines produced.)
The machine comes complete with a 24" (610 mm) diameter cutterhead with 16-knife rows, carbide knives for ease of
maintenance, OSHA guards, variable feed speed, and premium efficiency totally enclosed fan cooled cutterhead
motor.
The Newman Shavings Machine will simultaneously process wood of varying width, thickness, and length. It is
capable of producing shavings from material of up to 5" (127 mm) thick and 13" (330 mm) wide.
The shavings machine will process wood slabs with bark on or off, scrap edgings off fall blocks, slabs, scrap lumber,
etc.
A vibratory conveyor normally feeds the shavings machine. Properly fed material is converted to shavings in a single
pass with the shavings being discharged from the outfeed end. The shavings may be removed by a pneumatic
conveying system or simply blown from the machine.
