Among the many benefits listed were consistent gap reduction, smoother production flow and greater board control.<\/p>\n<p>Scott Atchison, Eacom&#8217;s Planermill Specialist says: &#8221;the Grip system was an easy in-house mechanical and electrical install for our site. The components were basically bolt on replacement on our Gilbert planer with minimal welding and was easily completed during a three day long weekend. Since install our site has seen improvements in efficiency and fbm\/hr while maintaining the same speeds. The Grip system has met our site expectations and was able to reduce gap and provide a consistent steady feed with reduced planer jams. Our Elk Lake mill is very happy with the product and the price point with the system on track for meeting or exceeding our projected payback of 9 months. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9136 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/02\/GRip-Elk-Lake-248x300.jpg\" alt=\"The GRIP system is designed to boost production, increase efficiency and feed boards with state-of-the-art traction.\" width=\"248\" height=\"300\" \/>\u00a0 \u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9138 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/02\/Grip-Elk-Lake2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"The GRIP system is designed to boost production, increase efficiency and feed boards with state-of-the-art traction.\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/>\u00a0 \u00a0 <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9140 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gilbert-tech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/02\/Grip-Elk-lake3-scaled-e1581006851892-291x300.jpg\" alt=\"The GRIP system is designed to boost production, increase efficiency and feed boards with state-of-the-art traction.\" width=\"291\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Gilbert, we constantly work on improving our equipment and offer many different upgrades.
