The HR115 horizontal resaw processes cants up to 380 mm wide into standard sized timber with cutting heights up to 280 mm. It features variable belt speeds up to 20 metres per minute and electrically adjusted head height for tapered cuts.
The HR115 horizontal resaw is a primary processing machine designed to convert cants and rough-sawn timber into dimensionally accurate, standard-sized boards with minimal waste. Operating as a horizontal bandsaw system, it performs perpendicular cuts across the width of incoming material, making it essential for mills transitioning raw cants into graded lumber for downstream manufacturing. The machine accommodates cants up to 380 mm wide with maximum cutting heights of 280 mm, supported by variable belt speeds reaching 20 metres per minute for optimized feed rates across different wood species and densities. Head height is adjusted electrically for precise cutting geometry, while the head tilt adjustment range of 0–8 degrees enables angled cuts for specialized applications. This combination of electrical precision controls and mechanical flexibility reduces operator fatigue and setup time while maintaining repeatability across production runs. The HR115 suits medium-sized sawmills and integrated woodworking operations processing 50–500 cubic metres monthly, where capital investment must balance against throughput demands. It is ideal for mills handling temperate hardwoods and softwoods in the 50–280 mm thickness range, particularly those requiring consistent dimensional output for furniture blanks, cabinet stock, or construction lumber rather than high-speed industrial volume production. Compared to entry-level horizontal resaws, the HR115's electric head adjustment and variable speed control provide faster changeover and greater versatility across material types, positioning it above fixed-speed models while remaining more accessible than fully automated systems with integrated scanning or hydraulic setworks.
