BIN SORTER

JAMEC designs and builds heavy duty bin sorter systems for Sawmills and planer mills. Our systems sort lumber at high speeds while reducing jams, downtime and maintenance.

We offer three main bin sorter designs:

• J Bar 
• Pusher lug 
• Drag chain 

Each system can handle hardwood or softwood lumber. In addition, our engineers select the right design according to your lumber sizes, production speed and available mill space.

Reliable Lumber Sorting at High Speeds

JAMEC bin sorters use carefully designed bin angles to help lumber move smoothly through the system. As a result, they reduce jams, production stops and operator tasks.

Our engineering team reviews your production needs and mill layout. Then, we select the right materials and prepare a custom system that supports your output goals.

For gentle lumber handling, we can also add soft discharge arms. These arms help protect finished lumber as it enters the sorting bins.
