Timber treatment plants, engineered around your process.
R D Industrial Corporation designs and manufactures Woodworth timber treatment plants in India for vacuum-pressure impregnation of utility transmission poles, railway sleepers, sawn lumber, and commercial timber products.
Rather than treating every vessel size as a rigid off-the-shelf product, Woodworth systems are custom-engineered around target output volumes, wood species, chemical preservative formulation, level of PLC automation, and site footprints.

Integrated Treatment Plant Systems
Woodworth timber preservation plants feature heavy-wall pressure vessels, automated chemical mixing units, high-efficiency vacuum systems, and digital control consoles for predictable chemical absorption and deep penetration depth.
Heavy-Duty Pressure Autoclaves
Precision-fabricated steel pressure vessels designed for rigorous industrial duty cycles. Built to handle extreme vacuum-pressure differential cycles without structural fatigue, guaranteeing long-term plant operational safety and complete chemical containment.
Automated Fluid Handling
High-volume chemical transfer pumps combined with precise chemical dosing systems. Designed for efficient solution fill and return cycles with zero chemical wastage.
PLC & Digital Monitoring
Optional PLC-automated touch-screen control panels with real-time pressure, vacuum, fluid level, and cycle time tracking for complete batch quality assurance.
Engineered Components & Sub-Systems
Treatment Vessel / Autoclave
Standard diameters ranging from 1.2m to 2.5m and lengths up to 24 meters, engineered to match target volumetric output and charge sizes.
Storage & Mixing Tanks
Corrosion-resistant steel chemical storage tanks equipped with mechanical agitators and level transmitters for uniform preservative solution blending.
Vacuum System Skid
Heavy-duty liquid ring vacuum pumps capable of rapidly creating up to -0.09 MPa vacuum to extract moisture and air from wood cell cavities.
Pressure Pump Assembly
Multi-stage hydraulic pressure pumps delivering working pressures up to 14 bar (1.4 MPa) for deep sapwood and heartwood chemical penetration.
Timber Trams & Track Systems
Heavy-duty steel bogies and internal/external rail tracks engineered for fast loading and unloading of heavy utility poles and sawn timber.
Safety & Environmental Skids
Integrated spill containment sumps, pressure-relief safety valves, and vapor scrubbing units to maintain complete plant environmental safety.
Standard Technical Matrix
Every Woodworth plant is custom configured to meet client production volumes, wood species parameters, chemical formulations, and available site footprint.
Custom Engineering Options
Dual-cylinder configurations, automated door opening mechanisms, integrated steam heating coils, and mobile skid-mounted units available upon request.
Woodworth Plant Insights
Have questions about choosing the right plant capacity, vacuum pressure cycles, or technical compliance?
Talk to an EngineerWhat timber species and products can be processed in Woodworth plants?
Woodworth treatment plants are designed to process all commercial softwoods, hardwoods, utility transmission poles, railway sleepers, sawn lumber, plywood veneers, and bamboo.
Are Woodworth plants compatible with different chemical preservative systems?
Yes, our treatment vessels and fluid handling skids are engineered with compatible alloys and seals to work with waterborne preservatives, quat-based systems, boron compounds, and fire-retardant chemicals.
How do I determine the right plant capacity for my sawmill?
Plant capacity is calculated based on your daily required cubic meter volume, average timber stack dimensions, and required treatment cycle duration. Our engineering team assists in sizing the ideal autoclave diameter and length.
Does Woodworth provide site erection and operational training?
Yes, we provide full turnkey delivery including civil foundation drawings, mechanical installation, electrical commissioning, chemical solution preparation, and complete operator safety training.
