Highland Pine adds Automatic Treatment Line


Highland Pine Products (HPP) in Oberon have requested Acora Reneco to supply a completely new automated line to allow them to treat their dried timber on line and on demand.

HPP and Acora together developed the concept of this fully flexible system that will allow HPP to select ‘on the run’ which packs of timber will go for treatment.

The process allows the dry sorter operator to select a pack for treatment and the whole pack is then diverted to the treatment line, singulated, even ended and then fed piece by piece at up to 100 pieces per minute through the transverse spray unit.


The spray booth will apply Osmose DeterMITE, termite protection coating onto all timber passing through this line.

The advantages of this system are that individual pieces are sprayed while they are carried through the spray booth on sharp top chains, so that all parts of the piece are treated.

The total system comprises a bundle transfer trolley, surge decks, unscrambler, Tong Dog lug loader, spray booth system, course divider, stacker and automatic lathe placer.

Finished treated packs are then fed into the existing strapping line and taken to storage ready for despatch to the client.
