ROSS Products for the Plywood Industry

ROSS valves and other components are used throughout the plywood industry. Detailed below are just some of the operations where our valves and components are utilized.



CHARGING SYSTEM
CHARGING SYSTEM
TRASH GATE

ROSS valves actuate cylinders that align logs before entering saws or the debarker. ROSS valves are used in the charging system, and to actuate the trash gate downstream from the lathe. Durability is crucial here. Long-lasting ROSS valves promote high production by maintaining consistent operation of the lap gate and clutch/brakes entering and exiting the dryer.

STACKER
STACKER

Air valve repeatability ensures stacking is done consistently and properly. The shift time of a ROSS valve remains consistent throughout the life of the valve. Air valves keep things moving in the glue process. Any malfunctions mean loss of production and poor quality.

PRESS
PRESS

To load and unload a press, you need a reliable, high-cycling air valve that can function in extreme temperatures. ROSS valves can do just that. Whether it's a panel feeder, turner or equalizer, machines need reliable, dirt-tolerant air valves. ROSS poppet valves survive in even the dirtiest of environments.
