In a press release, Hakki Pilke describe the X Firewood Factory and its components as follows:

Professional firewood processor Feed 900 Log Table 

The Feed 900 Log Table offers superior performance and practicality for the demanding needs of professionals.

This log deck is specifically designed for large logs with a diameter of up to 90 cm (36’’) and is equipped with a bearing chain that ensures smooth and reliable operation.

The Feed 900 Log Table combines efficiency, durability, and user-friendliness, making it the perfect choice for professional firewood processing.

Its modular design and high-quality components ensure long lifespan and minimal maintenance, keeping your operations smooth and efficient year after year. 

  • Feeding table: Suitable for 90 cm logs, allowing for easy handling of large logs. 
  • Robust structure: Extendable to a length of up to 6 metres, which can hold up to 14 tonnes of logs. 
  • Chain options: Available in both 2 and 3 chain versions, allowing you to choose the model that best suits your needs. 
  • Length options: The table length is adjustable between 4-6 metres, providing flexibility in space requirements and log quantities. 
  • Robust separator: The separator operates with separate control, improving the efficiency and accuracy of handling large logs. 

Fast and reliable S90 Saw Machine 

The S90 Saw Machine is designed to meet the toughest demands of professionals, offering superior efficiency and reliability in log handling and cutting.

This saw machine combines top-of-the-line technology and durable components, ensuring long-lasting and smooth operation.

Filling intermediate conveyor 

The conveyor between the S90 and X90 machines is designed to maximize wood processing efficiency and productivity.

This intermediary conveyor ensures seamless log feeding to the splitter, keeping the splitting unit constantly at full capacity. 

  • Optimal log feeding: The intermediary conveyor transports logs directly to the splitter, ensuring continuous operation and maximum efficiency. 
  • Intelligent packer function: Larger and smaller logs automatically find their place thanks to the packer, ensuring that the splitter always operates at full capacity.

Powerful and productive vertical log splitter X90 

The X90 Splitting Machine combines cutting-edge technology and superior power, providing perfect performance and quality for every firewood professional’s needs.

The splitter is an ideal choice for professionals who need an efficient and reliable tool for log splitting.

Its advanced features and top-tier technology make it an indispensable tool that enhances work efficiency and improves the quality of the firewood. 

  • Splitting force: Up to 47 tonnes of splitting force, ensuring efficient and effortless log splitting regardless of wood type. 
  • Maximum log diameter: Can split logs with a diameter of up to 90 cm (36’’), making the machine suitable for a wide range of raw materials. 
  • Efficient X-Blade: The X-blade ensures efficient and precise splitting, consistently producing uniform firewood. 
  • Automatic operation: The splitter operates fully automatically, allowing the operator to focus entirely on feeding and cutting logs. 
  • Adjustable firewood size: Easily select the size of the firewood from the display menu, enabling the production of perfect and precisely tailored firewood. 
  • Consistent results: The splitter ensures perfect and uniform firewood regardless of log diameter. 

XL Conveyor 

The X Firewood Factory is crowned with the XL Outfeed Conveyor, available in three sizes: 4, 6, or 8 metres.

The 60 cm (24″) wide conveyor transports large quantities of firewood and it has a built-in cleaning system that separates debris from the firewood. The pivoting outfeed conveyor is easily detachable from the machine, and it can be transported short distances on its own wheels.
