Offload Clean Firewood
With dimensions of 4 feet by 10 feet and a total weight of 1,690 pounds, this heavy-duty disc screener is built for stability, durability, and continuous operation in demanding firewood processing environments. It can be seamlessly integrated into an existing production line, typically positioned after processing or drying stages to refine and clean finished firewood before packaging or delivery. Alternatively, it can be used as a standalone unit for post-drying and pre-delivery screening, allowing operators to manually or mechanically feed material for final quality control. In either configuration, the machine is designed to efficiently separate debris, fines, and unwanted material, ensuring a cleaner, more consistent end product ready for market.
Hex Discs
The AutoFine disc screener achieves its high level of separation efficiency through a system of precision-engineered hex discs constructed from durable 3/16-inch steel. These discs are deliberately spaced to allow smaller debris, bark, and unwanted material to pass through while retaining usable firewood, ensuring a clean and consistent final product. Designed for continuous industrial use, the steel construction provides long-term durability and resistance to wear, even under heavy daily processing loads.
The screening deck consists of eight rotating rows of hex discs mounted along a central shaft, creating a controlled tumbling and vibration action as material moves across the system. As logs and split wood are fed onto the deck, the rotational movement causes them to spin, bounce, and shift, which naturally loosens and separates fines, kindling, and loose debris from the larger firewood pieces. This mechanical agitation eliminates the need for manual sorting and significantly improves processing efficiency, producing cleaner, more uniform firewood suitable for packaging, storage, or direct sale.
Add On to Your Log Cleaner
Though the AutoFine’s frame is engineered to integrate seamlessly with other Timberwolf equipment such as TWC conveyors, it can also be enhanced with an optional hopper (shown here) to improve material flow and loading efficiency. The hopper acts as a controlled funnel, helping guide firewood evenly onto the disc screener and reducing spillage or uneven feed. This is especially useful in high-volume operations where consistent loading helps maintain steady throughput and minimizes interruptions in production.
One of the key advantages of the AutoFine compared to a traditional firewood tumbler is its continuous forward-moving design. Instead of holding material in a rotating drum, the AutoFine keeps logs progressing steadily through the system, allowing direct transfer into a truck bed, wire basket, or other collection system without stopping production. To further refine this transition, an optional discharge chute can be added to the end of the machine. This chute helps control the flow of outgoing material, while an integrated chain bar slows the movement of logs as they exit, reducing impact and improving safety, organization, and overall handling efficiency.
Keep Your Power Safe
Timberwolf’s disc screener is designed for maximum compatibility and flexibility, allowing it to connect seamlessly with virtually any firewood processor on the market. For operations that do not use a processor, the AutoFine can be independently powered using a dedicated Power Pack, providing a fully self-contained screening solution. This setup ensures the machine can be integrated into both advanced production lines and simpler standalone workflows without sacrificing performance or efficiency.
The Power Pack is built around a reliable 4.9 HP Honda engine and includes an integrated fuel tank and Zinga filtration system to maintain clean, consistent hydraulic performance during operation. It connects to the AutoFine through two heavy-duty Continental hydraulic hoses, ensuring secure and efficient power transfer. Designed with portability in mind, the unit is equipped with wheels and ergonomic handles, allowing it to be easily repositioned as needed. This mobility enables operators to place the Power Pack at a safe distance from the working machine, improving both safety and workspace organization during continuous operation.
