well..i definitly think that you should give your saw all that it can take..STIHL 40 RMHS chain can handle with a max of 87 HP and recomended speed is almost 8000 feet/minute..hope you recovery soon from surgery..i definitly want to see your machine working..
190 HP?!?..how much gallons of fuel per hour are we talking about?
Don´t understand this: " The biggest problem with the saw cylinder is keeping it from jumping back up and throwing the chain when you lift the saw back out of the wood"..can you explain it to me? I have a pressure reducing valve that i´m going to use at saw cylinder..
And what rod size your twin cylinders have? You mencioned only the 4.5 in bore size..
And why twins? is better that way?
"...have more torque than a f11 without needing the high rpms to get there..."
well, with a F11-019, with all that oil you should be able to cut at 68 HP and 7500 feet/min and almost 500 lbf in of torque..78 HP required, 3000 PSI of pump pressure, and 40 GPM of oil..but this is the old discussion about low rpm motors VS parker F11 motors VS price
I think this subject deserves a dedicated topic:
what is the "perfect" configuration to cut firewood? (torque vs sprocket size vs chain type and pitch vs chain speed vs other thing else)
IS there any topic like this here in tractorbynet?
I saw your topic about 12 wedges configuration..very nice..
well..think ours processors are quite diferent
..i wish i was in the starting phase of my project, not in the end of it..190 HP ?!?!? how many tonnes of firewood do you splitt for year?
