Firewood Processors

Benefits of a Circular Saw Firewood Processor

Circular saws are large and powerful, which allows them to operate faster than a chainsaw blade. This results in clean and consistent cuts.

No lubrication is needed for a circular saw, so the sawdust it produces will be dry

Circular saws have a longer sharpening interval and require less maintenance than chainsaw blades.

Benefits of a Chainsaw Firewood Processor

Chainsaw Firewood Processors offer a larger cutting diameter which means you will have more consistent cuts when working with larger logs.

Buying a firewood processor with a chainsaw will lower your investment cost, compared to if you opted for a circular saw processor

Chainsaw firewood processors require less power than a circular saw processors

Palax

The Palax factory located in Ylistaro has been a part of the lives of firewood production professionals for 70 years. Initially designed for forestry and field work, the products were refined over time, and along the way, a small one-man business grew into a group that is now one of the world’s leading manufacturers of firewood machines.

Palax X-Aim

Palax X-Aim is an automatic splitting wedge height adjustment system for Palax firewood processors. It monitors the diameter of each log and automatically adjusts the splitting wedge to the optimal height, ensuring consistent firewood quality regardless of log size variations. This allows operators to focus on feeding and cutting the wood, increasing efficiency and ease of use. 

Automatic Adjustment, X-Aim uses a pulse sensor to measure the log’s diameter and sends this data to the control unit. 

Optimal Splitting, the control unit automatically adjusts the splitting wedge to the appropriate height for the log’s diameter, ensuring consistent splitting. 

Increased Efficiency, automating the wedge adjustment, X-Aim allows operators to spend more time on other tasks like feeding and cutting, leading to faster processing and higher output. 

Consistent Quality, The automatic adjustment ensures that every piece of firewood is split to the same standard, regardless of the size of the logs. 

Ease of Use, The system simplifies the firewood processing operation, making it easier for operators to focus on the core task of producing firewood. 

Factory-Installed Option, X-Aim is a factory-installed accessory for new Palax firewood processors, available for both Pro+ and Pro models.
