High-performance debarking

Debarker Valon Kone VK5068 (year of manufacture 2006)

The Valon Kone VK5068 is a stationary rotor debarker from the VK5000 series, developed for the efficient debarking of small to medium-sized log diameters. Its robust design and sophisticated hydraulic system make it ideal for continuous industrial operation in sawmills and wood processing plants.

Technical features:

• Model: Valon Kone VK5068
• Year of manufacture: 2006
• Type: Single rotor debarking machine
• Area of application: Small to medium-sized log diameters
• Number of feed rollers: 6 (short log variant SL: 8)
• Roller diameter: 580 mm
• Drive: Electro-hydraulic
• Available in: Basic and heavy-duty version (HD)

Features & benefits:

• Centering feed device: Ensures even log guidance with minimal fiber loss.
• Feed rollers with interchangeable segments (FibreMax): Three segment types (blunt, sharp, spike) for different types of wood and conditions.
• Hydraulic contact pressure of the feed rollers: Closed circuit (Basic) or active hydraulic system with "soft opening" (HD) for high-speed debarking.

- Blade pressure system optionally hydraulic or pneumatic:

• Hydraulic: Rubber springs with separate hand pump.
• Pneumatic: "Air Seal" system with remote adjustment during operation.
• Rotor with pull-out system: Enables simple and safe maintenance.
• Modular design: Expandable with additional rotors or reduction rotor.

Special features:

• Developed for high performance with minimum downtimes.
• Extra reinforced components in the HD version for high-speed lines.
• Minimal fiber loss and gentle debarking even with sensitive wood species.
• Maintenance-friendly design with easy access to all components.
