Elements by Rosta are essential to the Canadian lumber-processing industry

Rosta products serve forestry applications.

Rosta Inc. manufactures rubber spring components for a wide variety of industrial markets in Canada, with its unsurpassed mastery of three areas of technology. These elements are perfect for many applications in mining, construction, food processing, agriculture, waste management, transportation, and more. Another essential industry that Rosta serves: timber and lumber processing. The Rosta crew plays a strong role with its wood-processing machine components. Wood is crucial for many aspects of modern life, from construction to pulp and paper and furniture.

A major boon to machinery

These elements are a major boon to common machinery applications in the lumber-processing sector. Notable examples include shaker conveyors, gyratory sifters, chipper drives, transfer lines, and chain and belt drives. Rosta timber- and lumber-processing elements are recommended for the following applications:

• Chain and belt drives – benefits such as vibration damping and extended lifespan for belts, chains, and bearings for these drives. Simple and universal installation puts Rosta’s wood-processing components to work right away.
• Crushers and chipper drives – for superior belt and bearing life, as well as compensation of peak loads. No routine maintenance is necessary.
• Gyratory sifters – with efficient elastic suspension and support, as Rosta components eliminate the requirement for maintenance.
• Shaker conveyors – with such advantages as wear prevention, long service life, absorption of solid born noise, and long-distance conveying. Rosta machine elements also provide benefits for elastic drive units, and conveyors become shear-proof and maintenance-free.
• Transfer lines – a one-part maintenance-free solution available for transfer lines, especially for shock absorption.

For close to eight decades, Rosta’s parent company in Switzerland has logged many international success stories for its customers in the forestry sector and beyond. For instance, a few years ago, Rosta offered an ATEX motor base for CMC Texpan, a leading supplier for machinery and plants in the woodworking industry, based in Colzate, Italy. With this unique motor base, CMC Texpan was able to suppress fire and explosion hazards at its plant, and this boosted worker health and safety significantly.

With Rosta’s unmatched portfolio of industrial solutions, forestry and wood companies worldwide continue to remain profitable and competitive.
