Documented machine and specification

The HOLZH BB1228 is a horizontal veneer slicer for decorative veneer used in plywood, furniture and flooring. It takes a wood block up to 2600 × 1300 × 900 mm, has a 2000 mm working stroke and slices veneer from 0.2 to 3 mm thick, depending on the wood. Servo feeding advances the block, a clamping system holds it, and the knife and pressure bar separate automatically on the return stroke. The main motor is rated at 90 kW (DC).

What the BB1228 is built to do

A horizontal slicer moves a knife across a clamped flitch and peels off one thin sheet per stroke. Sheets come off in sequence, so the grain pattern stays matched from sheet to sheet: that is what decorative veneer buyers pay for. The BB1228 suits mills producing face veneer for furniture, flooring and panel lamination. Rotary-cut veneer for plywood cores comes from a different machine, a peeling lathe such as the Jinlun JLXQ260-50B.

Servo feeding sets the thickness of each sheet. Automatic separation of the knife and pressure bar on the return stroke stops the knife rubbing the flitch face between cuts.

Block size, stroke and veneer size

The 2600 × 1300 × 900 mm figure is the largest block the slicer accepts. The 2000 mm stroke is the length of knife travel. Ask HOLZH how the block is oriented to the stroke and what finished veneer length and width your flitch will give.

HOLZH also builds a larger BB1235. If your flitches approach the BB1228's limits, compare the two models on their own data sheets.

Thickness range

The 0.2–3 mm range covers very thin face veneer through to thicker sliced sheets. HOLZH states that the achievable thickness depends on the material. Thin veneer from dense or interlocked species is the demanding end, so test your own species at your target thickness.

What happens after slicing

Sliced veneer is wet and has to be dried, then trimmed into bundles. Qingdao Haozhonghao also builds dryers and guillotines for this part of the line. A veneer shear such as the Jilongchang MQJ410 trims dried sheets square; a hot press then bonds them to board. Plan these steps with the slicer, because the slicer's output rate is only useful if the dryer keeps up.

A trial on your own flitches

Ask for a slicing trial with your species, flitch preparation and target thickness. Measure thickness variation across and along several sheets and check the surface for knife marks and splits. Note the knife and pressure-bar settings used.

Buyer questions

Will I get 0.2 mm veneer from my wood?

HOLZH gives 0.2–3 mm depending on the material. Ask for a trial at 0.2 mm on your species.

What finished sheet size will I get?

Ask HOLZH to state the sheet length and width from your flitch with the BB1228's 2000 mm stroke.

Should I choose the BB1235 instead?

If your largest flitches are close to 2600 × 1300 × 900 mm, ask for both data sheets and compare.
