S.L.I.C.E. (Spiral Lead In Cutting Edge) Technology is a new twist for drum style chipping heads.  It reduces the depth and overall area of fiber pull caused by changes in grain or knots.  Gains in surface finish quality are made through a slicing action that makes a smooth cut, instead of a chop. The end result is an increase in the value of your lumber.  SLICE Technology advantages are:

• Improved finish on curve sawn cants with opposing knife tips across the head producing a spiral lead in cutting edge that makes a smooth slicing action across the surface of the cant
• Reduced fiber pull and knot tear out with SLICE Technology utilizing a knife set up that is twisted and tilted to enter the cant at an angle
• Improved chip quality with the diagonal cutting pattern quality providing a smooth slicing action that allows for the formulation of a chip that is consistent in both thickness and length
