Thanks for your comment. Our patented Perfect Split -system is really popular choice to process high quality restaurant wood in all over the world. In the USA our distributor is Metsa Machines: www.metsamachines.com/ Please be in touch with them for more information.

Hi Alan, thanks for your comment! We try to show the advantages with these videos and live demos. Unfortunately this spring all demos and trade shows are cancelled. This splitting system is available in two of our Firewood Processors: Japa 405 and Japa 435. We have a great number of customers who appreciate the high quality output of the patented Perfect Split system. This machine can be powered by PTO, 3-phase electricity or Combustion engine. Screen and controls have 12V nominal voltage. With the voltage readout we can check the proper voltage level when we use external power from the tractor for example.

@@japa-firewoodprocessors Need to double the size of the spit chamber so you can split two 43 cm logs at same time IMO otherwise good machine for professional results

hi Kevin, with 405 you can have both traditional splitting and perfect split options. 435 is more heavy duty and is designed for really heavy logs with only perfect split option. Mr. Bob Nelson from Metsa Machines has plenty of machines on his stock in US and can give you more information and offer of these Machines

@@villekairus4560 Thank You 🙏 very much for replying to my message(s)! I have watched Bob and Joe from Ohio Wood Burner go to Finland factory. I hope that you have a blessed day 🙏

Just doing the calculations at 25 cm long radius of log of 17 cm radius (34 diameter ) and 4 rounds per minute (3passes X5sec per pass average) should process about 5.4 solid m per hour , so about 1.8 cords . They did in my estimation 8.5 loose Cubes so the 8.35 is likely correct , but its 5 solid CM of wood so 52 euro X5.04=262.08 sold for 576 = 314 gross or 502 Euro at 40 cm 16 inch length per hour

4.15 solid cubes=5 m stacked as shown on display =8.33 loose so 215 euro cost sales at 575= 360 Euro value added

Hi, for more information in USA please contact Metsa Machines: www.metsamachines.com/ We have this machine available in different versions, like PTO, electric and diesel powered versions as well as the stationary and mobile versions. Please contact Metsa and they will offer the right machine for you!

Way to much.

Hi Edgar. Thanks for your comment. Circular saws definitely have their benefits and so have the chain saws as well. The main benefit of the chainsaw is the compact size compared to the circular saw. For 15" logs 16" bar is enough. For 15" logs the minimum size of the circular saw blade is about 34". This requires a lot of space inside the processor. Circular saw requires less maintenance but maintenance for the chainsaw is much easier and can be done by the operator. We also offer a harvester saw unit, same as used in the professional forestry harvesters, including automatic chain tensioning. This allows the operator to replace the new chain without any tools. Also the lifetime of the chain is much longer with the harvester saw unit. If there is metal or stone in the wood that damages the blade/chain, it takes only a couple of minutes to replace the chain. Replacing the circular saw blade normally takes a minimum couple of hours and the maintenance often requires professional workshop.

Regarding maintenance: maybe so, but if you run a HM-chain you can run wery long time without any stops. I know of a 365 where the last change of chain was early 2020, but that one is in "semi-pro" use...

The fact that it can split pieces into manageable sizes is a huge selling point for a customer. Large split pieces result in improper seasoning and heavy weight that some customers don't like. This machine, with the return ram to split larger logs efficiently is a huge bonus.

Hi Ken, thanks for your comment. We have also a bunch of other machines available with and without the Perfect Split system. Take a closer look in here: japa.fi/en As explained in the video this procesor is producing the perfect sized firewood for the customer who require high quality firewood.

bit.ly/2IL2LCG This is a picture after the 2018 Firewood Processor Shootout. We took one piece of split firewood from each pile to compare the difference between Perfect Split and traditional splitting knife. It's probably easy to recognize our firewood in the picture and easy to understand why some of the customers are ready to pay more for the firewood like this. For some customers the size of the firewood is not that important but for some customer it is. And for the firewood producers aiming for the constant high quality we can offer the right tools.

For me looking at for example Eastonmade one concern is the size of some of the wood. The pieces are somtimes so big that one should use a forklift to move them 🤣. For my use this 10" is perfect, ~3"X3".

Not a bad idea. We are publishing new videos online all the time. Stay tuned!
