Wood-Mizer (www.woodmizer.com), has revealed the impending launch of a modular horizontal resaw with from two to six cutting heads, to meet the needs of sawyers and small timber processors who wish to further extend timber processing.
The add-on or subtract resaw, which devolves from the company’s multi-head saw will be commercially available in the new year.
It permits, for example, a sawyer who wants to expand into secondary processing to buy a resaw with two cutting heads and subsequently to add two or four more to the module.
The basic two-head resaw is designed to either take a rubber belt or flat steel chain feed. Each head can be tilted with the addition of an optional tilting kit, which permits for example tilting from zero to nine degrees for lap fencing. The machine permits significant value to be added to raw material in a flexible manner. Owners can buy in and install extras when more capacity is appropriate.
Equally they can disassemble a lengthened resaw and revert to a two-head unit to suit commercial requirements. It can easily be dismantled and removed to a new site since it has no separate foundations. As a result, expenditure on fittings that often remain behind is unnecessary.
According to the company, this reflects recent moves to develop more secondary timber processing equipment such as its modular kiln, “Dsba” moulder and edger-MultiRip, in addition to its band sawmills.
