Wood Shaver Machine Helps Colombian Manufacturer Make Animal Bedding
A manufacturer from Colombia recently invested in a wood shaving machine to process wood scraps into animal bedding. The client, primarily engaged in wood-related manufacturing, generates a significant amount of leftover wood in their daily production.


Instead of discarding these materials, the company sought a practical solution to transform them into a high-value product. This not only provides the company with additional revenue but also effectively improves material utilization.
Why does the customer choose a wood shaver machine?
In the local market, wood shavings are widely used as bedding material for poultry, livestock, and small animal farms due to their excellent water absorption and comfort.
This large market led the customer company, after evaluating various options, to decide to purchase a wood shaving machine capable of continuous operation and stable output. Their main requirements included:
- The wood shaver machine must be able to efficiently process logs and wood scraps.
- Produced wood shavings must be suitable for use as animal bedding, being uniform and soft.
- The entire machine must be easy to operate and have low maintenance costs.
- It must meet daily production needs, with a minimum hourly output of 1,500 kg/h.


Wood shaver machine performance in real use
