Results of RB-55 chopping complex production inspection

A detailed description of the design and principle of the RB-55 chopping complex operation, developed at a Nizhny Novgorod company and designed for grinding wood materials, is presented. Predictive dependences in the form of a third-degree polynomial for calculating the grinding power consumption are obtained, the maximum throughput of the chopping complex is predicted when chopping pine slabwood with a humidity of 23...30 % — 9 m3/h. The maximum throughput capacity of the RB-55set for grinding round wood (spruce) with a humidity of 47,8% is 23 m3/h, and the total power consumption of electric motors is 68,23 kW. It is established that the resulting chips correspond to the brand of PS intended for the chipboard manufacture.
