Abstract (en)
A log processing apparatus (1) for both longitudinally splitting and transversely cutting one or more elongated logs (2) into short lengths comprises an elongated bed (3) extending between an upstream end (7) and a downstream end (8) for supporting the logs (2). A splitting element (22) having a main splitting knife (25) and first and second transverse splitting knives (32,34) for longitudinally splitting one or more elongated logs (2) is located adjacent the downstream end (8) of the bed (3). An hydraulically powered main ram (24) located in the bed (3) towards the upstream end (7) thereof urges the logs (2) through the splitting element (22). A first ram (44) selectively urges the splitting element (22) downwardly from a rest state into one of a clamping state for clamping the logs (2) on the bed (3) and a splitting state for splitting the logs (2). A saw disk (50) is located adjacent the downstream end (8) of the bed (3) downstream of the splitting element (22) for transversely cutting the one or more logs (2) into short lengths.
