Timberlab, a U.S. company specializing in sustainable timber solutions, confirms its partnership with SCM, a leading manufacturer of machinery and systems for the woodworking industry.The collaboration includes the supply of two highly innovative technologies for the new plant in Millersburg, Oregon, destined to mark a real milestone in Cross-Laminated Timber production.
SCM will supply a new CELASCHI XL profiling machine and double-end tenoner that will ensure the processing of panels over 18 m long, at a rate of 1 every 15 minutes, and an AREA XL 5-axis CNC machining centre with a mobile gantry structure and pendulum processing, developed specifically for the industrial production of large format CLT panels (up to 60'x11.5').
Both SCM innovations are ideal for being integrated into high-productivity lines.
With these two state-of-the-art solutions, Timberlab will be able to achieve top-level processing efficiency and precision for a plant that promises to be one of North America's largest, with an expected output of 100 thousand cubic meters of CLT panels.
