Use real maximum feed dimensions
Log diameter is only part of chipper selection.
Wood species, crooked branches, bundled feed and the chip size needed downstream all matter. Send representative photos so the feed system and rotor are not undersized.

is commonly used.
NovaGen wood chippers are selected by maximum log diameter, wood species, feed form, required chip geometry and duty cycle. Heavy-duty feeding and accessible wear parts support continuous industrial operation.
Sawmill waste
Slabs, edgings and production offcuts.
Pellet feedstock
Prepare uniform chips for drying and hammer milling.
Board & boiler fuel
Controlled chips for downstream industrial use.

| Selection factor | What we need | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Max diameter | Largest log or bundle size | Controls inlet and rotor |
| Wood species | Hardness and density | Controls power and knife setup |
| Chip dimensions | Downstream requirement | Controls knife and screen |
| Duty cycle | Hours per day and feeding method | Controls machine class |
Questions buyers usually ask
Worth checking
before you order.
Drum or disc chipper?
Drum chippers handle varied industrial feed and capacities; disc chippers can suit controlled log feed and specific chip applications.
Can it process nails or metal?
Metal contamination damages knives. Upstream inspection or metal-detection measures should be considered.
Can chips feed a pellet line directly?
Chips normally require drying and hammer milling before pelletizing.
