Endurance Equipment, LLC. products

Our heavy duty, no-maintenance Chutes are constructed with a 28 degree angle for ease of entry to Drum Debarkers. Tree-length versions are built with a 1.5 inch thick rolled plate slide surface. Width at entry is 15 feet to allow crane grapples to fully open for stem release. A large containment wall protects the drum from damage. Chutes are custom engineered to suit site layouts and drum sizes. Offered in log length or stem length versions.

Endurance Equipment’s proprietary chain bed and cylindrical trough design conveys materials of varying lengths and diameters effectively into Drum Debarkers horizontally. A sloped transition plate at the drum infeed point supports stems and reduces breakage. Superior debarking is achieved by keeping the stems horizontal throughout the debarking process. Because of its low infeed height, it is possible to feed the debarking system with mobile equipment as well as with cranes.

Endurance Equipment, LLC manufactures Rubber Tire Supported Drum Debarkers in diameters of 9′, 11′ and 13′ and lengths from 15′ thru 120′. Models are offered in Stationary, Transportable and Mobile configurations. The Endurance product line incorporates many features and innovations unique in the industry. These features contribute to an overall system design unsurpassed in productivity, debarking efficiency and fiber recovery.

Endurance Equipment, LLC has pioneered the use of multi-strand chain conveying systems for stem feeding of Flaker Systems. The Endurance design principle incorporates a two or three unit conveyor system to transport and stack the stems in preparation for flaking. The Drum Discharge Conveyor is constantly moving forward, pulling stems from the Drum Debarker and placing them into available openings in the Flaker Feed Conveyor.

Endurance’s Stem Merchandiser is the ultimate high-speed stem breakdown system available. Endurance’s Rotary Positioner coupled with our all electric Vertical Carriage system can process tree length stems at rates of up to 14 per minute. Transverse bucking eliminates the necessity of waiting on cut logs to clear the cut zone before bucking the next stem. All cuts on each tree-length stem are made in one continuous cycle. Superior positioning with absolute encoders and verification with the latest laser range finder technology guarantees that cut lengths are consistent within +/- .250” of desired overcut.

Heavy duty, high speed scan chain designs with regreasable pins and barrels allow speeds up to 600 FPM. V and Flat guide configuration with reverse knife edge flights hold stems stable and true throughout the scanning process. Rugged design permits direct loading and off kicking eliminating the need for belt/chain transitions.
