I run a morbark 642 of this style now, I used to run a morbark 640 stationary head now, and i like the stationary one better, it handles the twisted up ones so much better.

We have fitted the staionary heads with this style with great results.

Take Care,

We run the Nicholson A8 Highspeed Debarker, and been running it since I ca remember, I been at Chaleur Sawmills for 7 years, ours is a bit faster then what is shown here though, Iam not kidding, we can run about 50-60 logs per minute.. We have 2, we also have the nicholson A5. They can handle logs up to I think 24". You can find Nicholson A8

on Youtube
