These models are designed for fast
production of high quality accurate timber. The fixed track method
means you have access to the log and can cut timbers from all sides.
You can add extensions to any length without compromising the accuracy
or speed of the mill.
To increase productivity an extra set of tracks can be added so
that while the operator is sawing logs at one end, another log can
be set up at the other end. This will allow you to double the production.
The Lo/Lo tracks are recommended if you will be frequently moving
from log to log. You can upgrade to the Hi/Lo tracks for use beside
a stockpile of logs. The Hi/Lo prevents any sawdust building up
on a low track and allows easy loading of logs under the high side
of the mill. The Hi/Lo set up can be used as Lo/Lo tracks. Set up
and breakdown time are the same.
The Production Frame mills come in 6", 8" or 10"
models, and are powered by 13 hp or 24 hp industrial 4-stroke Honda
motors.The Peterson 6" Production Frame is also unique in the
fact that it is fully upgradable to 8" cut at a later date.
These mills can produce anywhere from 2 - 12 cubic metres or 800
- 5000 board feet per day depending on your logs and setup, and
all size models can easily double cut without turning the unit around.
