Our gang saws are ideal workhorse machines, producing the majority of finished product in most of our sawmills. The simplicity of our design, coupled with solid construction and plenty of power, produce high throughput and top quality results. Gang saws are capable of making multiple high tolerance cuts in a single pass. Proper alignment of the cant going into the gang saw produces excellent throughput and recovery. Optical sensors detect the presence of material, activating pneumatically assisted driven hold-downs to apply pressure down onto the cant, and guiding the timber accurately through the cut. The high accuracy on board thickness along with the excellent cutting finish achieved by these circular saws result in improved recovery savings further down the line in the dry-milling/ finishing process. This beast of a machine is a must-have in any high volume sawmilling operation.
Features:
- Feed speeds up to 197 ft/min (60 m/min)
- Compatible for blade sizes: 4" or 5" (100mm or 125mm)
- Throat width 17" (430mm)
- Single or twin-head configurations
- Electric servo sizing system for fast size changes – under 0.3 seconds! (depending on thickness)
- Heavy duty slatt-chain feed with variable speed
- Powered hold-down rollers on both the in- and out-feeds for fast, accurate material feed
- Robust headrig column for high strain, high speed sawmilling
