AutoMAXX Resaw
Revolutionizing Hardwood Sawmilling Again
Following McDonough's transformative invention of the Traveling Bed Linebar Resaw in the late 1890s, the AutoMAXX Resaw arrives to redefine modern sawmilling. This advanced system fully automates turning, fence set adjustments, gap control, and feeding, allowing operators to concentrate on cutting strategies and board grading.
Key Advantages
-
Fully Automated Operation – Everything from turning to feeding is controlled by an advanced system, freeing your operator to focus on high-level tasks.
-
Superior Yield on High-Grade Products – Automation keeps tight tolerances and consistent settings, improving lumber recovery.
-
Superior Throughput – Higher line counts are achievable at the same feed speeds, boosting productivity and maximizing saw efficiency.
-
Requires Only One Operator – Automated feeding means fewer personnel required; more work gets done with less.
-
Saw-Friendly Performance – Optimized feed speeds reduce saw fatigue and extend blade life, maintaining production flow.
-
Precision Gap Management – PLC-controlled turning and feeding keep gap sizes minimal and uniform—even during set changes.
