Based on the versatile and reliable LT20 sawmill series, the LT20START retains full functionality and cutting parameters at a much more competitive price. The sawmill is available in one main configuration, including a complete hydraulic log handling system and a control panel with the Setworks for automatically adjusting cutting height. It has been developed to respond to a growing need for budget sawmills with capabilities matching those larger machines.

The LT20START sawmill has been designed for small and medium-sized companies, as well as individual users, who are looking for a ready-to-action machine with full sawmilling functionality. The LT20START sawmill allows for converting logs to timber efficiently and at a low cost!

More options and choices are available in the LT20SUPER sawmill, which allows for customizing the machine to specific business requirements and budget conditions.

The LT20START sawmill allows for cutting logs with a maximum diameter of 80 cm and a length of 6,1 m. It is based on the M-size bedframe, which is made like in other sawmills. Cutting longer logs is possible with the bed extensions, which are additionally available.

The LT20START is a stationary sawmill, which is supposed to be installed under a roof and bolted to the concrete floor. The bed features roof-shaped bed-rails (with optional stainless-steel covers) preventing the debark from building under the log.

The hydraulic package is an obvious benefit of the LT20START, allowing users to handle logs easily. The system is powered by a 3-kW electric motor with an oil flow of 11 l/minute. It includes three side supports, a central clamp, a claw log turner, two log leveling rollers, and a log loader.

The efficient hydraulic system allows for quick log loading, rotating, and positioning of the log in the most convenient way. The central clamp works on a solid single rod in a horizontal and vertical plane, pressing the log against the side supports and securing it firmly during the sawmilling.

The LT20START sawmill uses a standard 11 kW electric motor. More motor and hydraulic options are available at the LT20SUPER sawmill.

The control panel features an ergonomic joystick for moving the sawhead forward/reverse and comes in standard equipment with the SW10 Setworks for automatically adjusting cutting height. With this device, you don’t have to calculate and set manually the cutting height.

The blade guide arm is moved electrically and is activated on the control panel. It stabilizes the blade while cutting a log (especially those with irregular shapes). The blade tension is adjusted with a screw and a gauge. The blade lubrication system is based on an electromagnetic valve.

A debarker is optional. It is recommended for sawmilling dirty logs with mud, sand, or ice in the bark, extending the blade’s lifetime.

The LT20START uses standard 4010 mm long and 32-35 mm wide blades.
