There has been a dramatic increase in the utilization of chipper units since 1975. Continuing and increased demand for fiber indicates harvesting the maximum fiber per acre. Overall the increased yield is in the range of 25-40% and wood-tree chips are being put to a variety of uses. This article reviews the significant developments in both harvesting and mill site equipment which have allowed increased use of whole-tree chips while reducing grit load to the mill system.
