At the end of September, we completed an assembly at a sawmill Yerly Bois SA in the municipality of Treyvaux, Switzerland, and successfully handed over a sawing system to the customer. We were particularly pleased about this order.
The family business has been operating a sawmill for 150 years and has been in existence for five generations. As part of the extensive renovation of the sawmill, a new resaw system was planned. We made initial contact at LIGNA-23. Shortly afterwards, our employee visited the sawmill to gain an on-site insight. A little later, the customer’s management came to us to discuss the final details. Ultimately, the customer decided on our concept and placed the order.
The main machine is an extremely powerful resaw type HNS-2 in double-shaft design. The saw is equipped with two saw motors, each with 160 kW, has a cutting height of 260 mm and is able to carry out the entire resaw from the existing full frame. The saw works together with the EZV feed and centering device in fully automatic operation. A number of different cross conveyors and roller conveyors complete the system. The entire system comprises 8 full semi-trailers with a total weight of over 48 tons!
“The sawmill machines from MS MASCHINENBAU did not disappoint me and fully met my expectations of robust machines “Made in Germany”. For our company, it is always important to have a partner who responds to our specific requirements and wishes and implements them. From planning to assembly/commissioning, MS MASCHINENBAU was always committed and competent. We are impressed and satisfied with the heavy construction and high performance of the system. Special praise goes to the MS assembly team – they did an excellent job under such difficult conditions and in such a confined space” – says Christophe Yerly, senior boss, to our assembly manager Mr. Mund at the end of the assembly.
We are pleased about this assessment of our work and thank you for your trust!
