"We Made the Right Choice!"
We installed our second Cleereman carriage in July of 2003 and I gotta tell you the thing is bullet proof! We produce 4.5 - 5 million board feet per year, thats over 22 million feet since installation - all with zero downtime. Before we finalized our decision to install the second Cleereman we looked at every major brand of carriage and were absolutely sure we made the right choice. It runs smooth and just works everyday. Plus, our sawyer loves it! We wouldnt have anything else in our mill.
