Owning a wood processing factory has never been easy. Wood is sometimes abundant, sometimes scarce, workers are increasingly difficult to find, old machines consume electricity, break down easily, and the quality of the wood chips is inconsistent… At the end of the month, when you sit down to calculate, there is not much profit left.
More and more factory owners are starting to pay attention to wood chipper with advanced technology – not only because they chop strongly and quickly, but also because they save electricity, reduce damage to the chipper blades, and produce even, beautiful chips that meet export standards.
This article will share with you: Why is investing in a new technology chopper a good decision at this time? What can it save? How does it increase productivity? And how to choose the right machine for your workshop. If you are thinking about “upgrading the line”, do not ignore the following.

Market context: Increasing demand, great challenges
In recent years, the demand for wood chips and recycled wood materials has increased sharply. Factories producing pellets, MDF, plywood, pressed wood, etc. have sprung up more and more, especially in provinces such as Thanh Hoa, Tay Ninh, Binh Phuoc, Gia Lai, etc. The export market is also wide open, especially orders for wood chips to China, Korea, Japan or pellets to the EU and Japan, which are in great need of a stable supply.
However, as demand increases, the pressure is greater than ever. Many factory owners complain that:
- Raw wood is increasingly expensive, if not fully utilized then loss.
- The old chipper was not working properly, wasting electricity, losing blades, and making uneven chips, so the partner returned the goods or forced the price down.
- It is difficult to recruit workers, and the machine depends too much on the operator. If there is a break, the production line will stagnate.
In addition, the quality standards for wood chips are increasingly strict: they must be the right size, clean, free of impurities, and uniform to meet the requirements of drying, pelletizing, or exporting. Older chipper machines are almost incapable of meeting these requirements stably and for a long time.
In that context, investing in wood chipper machines with advanced technology is no longer a matter of wanting or not, but a must if you want to survive and develop sustainably.
Specific benefits of investing in wood chipper with advanced technology
Investing in a high-tech Wood chipper machine is not just about replacing an old piece of equipment – it’s about upgrading the entire performance of your factory. First of all, it saves a lot of electricity thanks to the 960 rpm slow-speed motor and the smart inverter system. With high operating frequency, factory owners can save millions of dong in electricity costs each month.
The chopping blade is made of SKD11 or DC53 steel, which has a lifespan many times longer than normal blades. Thanks to that, the machine operates stably, has little wear and tear, and requires little maintenance, helping to reduce downtime and replacement costs.
Another outstanding strength is that the output chip quality is very consistent – meeting export standards, pelletized or dried. There are no chips or impurities, thanks to the optimal design of the chopping chamber and material supply. This helps businesses to close orders more easily, without being forced to lower prices.
The machine also supports automatic operation, integrated conveyor and PLC control, helping to reduce dependence on labor – very suitable in the current labor shortage context.
Many machines can reach a capacity of 10-35 tons/hour, and can chop all types of wood – from acacia wood, miscellaneous wood to roots or old pallets. Thanks to that, businesses can proactively input, increase output, and shorten the payback period to only 1-1.5 years.
Outstanding advanced technology features
Automatic control by PLC – easy to operate, high safety
Most modern shredders are equipped with a Siemens PLC control panel or equivalent. This allows the operator to perform simple operations: turn on the machine, monitor the screen, and troubleshoot any errors. The system is also pre-programmed to protect against overload, emergency shutdown, and temperature warnings, ensuring the safety of the equipment and the operator.
Super durable chopping knife – SKD11 or DC53 standard
The knife is the “heart” of the chipper. With imported SKD11 steel, high hardness, good abrasion resistance, the knife is less likely to become blunt whether chopping fresh or dry wood. The knife’s lifespan can be up to 4-6 months depending on usage conditions – 2-3 times longer than a normal knife. This is a factor that helps save costs and maintain stable chip quality.
Optimal chipping chamber design – even chipping, less wood jams
The machine is improved with a sliding or spiral chipping chamber, allowing wood to enter smoothly and chips to come out continuously. No clogging, no need to stop the machine frequently. Thanks to that, the quality of wood chips is uniform, with little broken pieces – meeting the requirements of pellet production or export.
Automatic feeding – reduce human effort, increase productivity
The machine usually comes with an automatic feed conveyor and an output conveyor. The operator does not need to push the wood manually – just load the wood onto the conveyor. This reduces the risk of accidents, improves work efficiency and reduces dependence on human labor.
Sturdy frame – heavy load capacity, long life
The entire machine body is made of thick steel plate, welded in one piece, and painted with anti-rust paint. Some models also have a removable blade chamber structure – easy to maintain, quick blade replacement without having to disassemble the entire machine.
Customizable to your needs – flexible in capacity and installation type
Depending on the size of the workshop and the raw materials, the machine can be designed with a capacity of 3 to 25 tons/hour, using an electric motor or a diesel engine, fixed or mounted with moving wheels. Some units such as GREEN MECH also provide custom design drawings according to the actual site.

Analysis of investment efficiency of wood chipper with advanced technology
Although the initial investment cost of advanced wood chipper technology may be 15-25% higher than conventional machines, the results are completely worth it. First of all, the machine helps save 20-30% of electricity thanks to the use of slow-speed motors and frequency converters – a significant number when operating 2-3 shifts/day. In addition, the chipper blades are made of super-durable SKD11 steel, helping to extend the replacement period up to 4-6 months, significantly reducing maintenance costs.
Not only that, the new chipper produces uniform wood chips with less debris, meeting the requirements of pellet production or export – thereby selling at a higher price. With a capacity of up to 10–25 tons/hour, the output is doubled compared to the old machine, while labor and electricity are reduced. If calculated carefully, the total financial benefit per month can be up to 30–45 million VND, helping to recover capital after only 10–14 months. This is an investment that can “pay itself back quickly” and generate sustainable profits for many years to come.
