Abstract

A chip and method for producing wood pulp. First, second and third pairs of substantially parallel sides are formed by cleaving, cutting and cutting, respectively. The sides of the second pair of sides are cut by a first knife so as to be spaced between about 2 to 8 mm. The sides of the third pair of sides are cut by a second knife so as to be spaced a greater distance apart than the first pair. The sides of the first pair of sides are cleaved substantially along the grain direction so as to be spaced also a greater distance apart than the sides of the first pair. The sides of the third pair of sides are cut so as to be substantially perpendicular to the sides of the first pair of sides.
