Kadant Carmanah’s Straight Knife Drum (SKD) Chipper turns sawmill and planermill residuals into uniform pulp-grade chips—from trim ends and solid wood to overs—without compromise. Its robust, high-inertia drum absorbs feed surges with ease, while straight knives and internal screen grate tolerances provide site-level fine tuning across diverse input streams. With configurable knife pockets (2, 4, or 6) and selectable RPM between 600 and 900 via custom belt and sheave setups, the SKD adapts effortlessly to specific throughput demands. The chipper accepts both standard plate and replaceable keyway-style knives, featuring dual reusable edges that can be honed for extended life. Built to last for years, the SKD delivers reliability, efficiency, and operational value at every turn.
