The WP truck bin is the heaviest well built bin in the marketplace. Storage capacities range from 15 units to 42 units for single bins. Truck storage bins can be placed end-to-end to create as much storage capacity as required. Leveling screws, compactors, hanging and hydraulic baffles, and wind enclosures can be added to the truck bin to suit your specific needs.

The automatic board stacker is a unique modular unit capable of stacking multiple length boards end-to-end, or single-length packages up to 24' long directly out of a finger jointer board press, or any type of lumber processing system, with no manual handling. Manual adjustments are provided to vary package widths from 42" to 48" with variations in lumber thickness automatically compensated for by optical switches. System control is provided by a PLC with an operator's push button station to start and stop the system as well as provide manual override controls.
The stacker operation is fully hydraulic which allows for user-friendly, fully adjustable speed and operation control. Hydraulic power is provided from a state-of-the-art, fully protected, pressure-compensated pump unit. Additionally, packages are built on a roll top scissor lift which can be powered for optional automatic discharge. A 20' long accumulation roll case is also available to store finished packages.

The WP baghouse filter is built for large industrial dust collection applications and requires a support structure. This filter is a primary dust collector with bag section on top which uses reverse air for cleaning of the bags. Dust is pulled from inside the bags and blown back into the cyclone section at the bottom of the primary filter.

Western Pneumatics designs high pressure pneumatic conveying systems which use positive displacement blowers to create the air and pressure needed to move product efficiently. Blowers are pumps sized specifically for air volume (CFM) and pressure capacity.

High pressure systems use low air-to-material ratios to move product to a single or muliple locations on a plant site in an energy efficient manner.

The Western Pneumatics Machinery and Pneumatics divisions are supported by our UL508A rated panel shop.

We have over 15 years experience in panel building and have built many MCCs for our wide range of equipment. The Western Pneumatics engineering department designs control panels, MCCs and PLCHMI programming. Our electrical engineering is based on a scope custom fit by your application.

A short list of components we have worked with are as follows: Allen Bradley PLCs, Siemens S7-200, Automation Direct, Panelview, Panelview Plus, Panelmate, C-More, Allen Bradley soft starts, Saftronic, AB VFDs, ABB VFDs, Hitachi VFDs and Yaskawa VFDs.

We have proven we can build control panels and MCCs as per your design and criteria while working along with your PLC program and programmer.

Our modem and Ethernet support allows for trouble shooting and program changes, if needed. We also provide start-up and commissioning assistance.
