Hakki Pilke launched the revolutionary X Firewood Factory at the FinnMETKO exhibition in August 29th, 2024. This top-of-the-line machine includes large Feed 900 log table that can handle logs with a diameter of up to 90 cm, the professional S90 saw machine with superior efficiency and reliability, the log splitter X90 with top-notch technology and superior power and XL Conveyor designed for large quantities of firewood. With X firewood factory you get the ultimate productivity for firewood processing and the entire machine can be operated by just one person.
Finnish quality for international firewood production
This is the first machine of this size manufactured in Finland. The splitting machine also features an X-blade that splits the log vertically, a technique that has not been used before in Finnish firewood machines.
The X Firewood Factory is designed for true professionals and industrial production, for those who want to achieve high productivity and require uninterrupted material flow and a high-quality end product. The machine is mainly intended for export markets where log sizes are large.
“This is the first time a machine of this size has been presented in Finland. There is a high demand in the Central European market for machines that can handle logs in the 50-90 cm size range. The machine was developed in collaboration with three leading Finnish firewood processor brands. By combining the best expertise, we can meet the competitive Central European market with Finnish technology,” says Lauri Kälviäinen, TP Silva’s Sales and Marketing Director.
TP Silva will be selling the X Firewood Factory under its three brands; Hakki Pilke, Palax, and Japa.
