The knife-ring flaker is an integral and pivotal piece of equipment in the particleboard production process, specifically within the flake preparation section. This machine is designed to efficiently process raw materials such as wood chips or other lignocellulosic materials into thin, uniform flakes that are essential for the subsequent steps in the particleboard manufacturing process. The flaker operates by utilizing a rotating ring equipped with knives that shave the material into precise, consistent flakes. The uniformity and quality of the flakes produced by the knife-ring flaker directly impact the strength and density of the final particleboard product. It is crucial for the flaker to maintain a high level of precision and consistency to ensure the quality of the particleboard. The machine's robust construction and reliable performance make it a staple in the wood-based panel industry, contributing to the production of high-quality and durable particleboard products that are used in a variety of applications, from furniture to construction material


After the chipper makes desired-size chip material from wood chips,bamboo chips and crushed veneer,the faking machine are used to produce required flakes with certain thickness as the raw material for particle board.Four series with the knife-ring diameter of p600 to 1400 are provided,can be equipped with the particle board line with an annual capacity of 30-200thousand m³.
It can provide you larger production capacity,more uniform flaks,more energy saving,more convenient maintenance,and it is an ideal choice for large and middle scale particleboard lines,can replace the imported equipment well.


High Efficiency: The knife-ring flaker is designed with a high-speed rotating ring that allows for rapid processing of raw materials, significantly increasing the throughput of the flake preparation section. This efficiency is crucial for meeting the demands of high-volume particleboard production.
Uniform Flake Production: One of the standout features of the knife-ring flaker is its ability to produce uniformly sized flakes. The precision of the knives and the controlled rotation of the ring ensure that each flake is consistent in size and shape, which is essential for the quality and performance of the particleboard.
Durability and Low Maintenance: The knife-ring flaker is constructed with durable materials that can withstand the rigors of continuous operation. Its design also minimizes the need for frequent maintenance, reducing downtime and operational costs
