In the 1980’s, Cliff Rawlings had tinkered with enough wood grinders that he developed the Rawlings solid rotary wood hog. During this time sawmills had generally used hammer mills to pulverize bark into hog fuel for boilers,

but many had given up on processing cedar because the bark was so stringy.

Cliff’s new grinder used a system of solid rotors that efficiently reduced the more challenging bark without the usual equipment breakdown. The same concept with some improvising to the Super Hi-Inertia™ rotor is being utilized today in the Rawlings wood hog design. Since then the family owned and operated company has manufactured and marketed several series of product lines offering a complete line of horizontal and vertical grinders in a range of sizes, diesel or electric powered.
