Round timber cutting with SERRA Maschinenbau

Round timber cutting with SERRA Maschinenbau

Maximum yield with precise sawmill technology

The first cut is often the most important step in maximizing the value of every log. Every millimeter of kerf has an impact on the yield, quality, and profit. At the same time, the varying trunk sizes and qualities call for flexible and precise processing. SERRA Maschinenbau, part of the WINTERSTEIGER Group, offers powerful solutions in round timber cutting. Wide-band saw technology, precise cutting, and flexible machine concepts help to ensure efficient cutting processes.

Combined expertise: Timber processing with SERRA & WINTERSTEIGER

SERRA Maschinenbau has been part of the WINTERSTEIGER Group since 2019, strategically expanding the group's technology portfolio to include round timber cutting. SERRA provides the basis for round timber cutting with mobile and stationary sawmills. WINTERSTEIGER supplements this expertise with automation, system integration, and industrial process solutions.

This combination makes it possible to adopt a holistic approach to wood and timber processing. With options such as resaws, conveyors, and automated material feeding, these systems become fully integrated solutions for modern manufacturing environments.

Reference project: Log processing in practice

One example from the USA shows how efficiently modern round timber cutting works in practice. Following a machine failure, the company Full Tilt Timber Framing was facing the challenge of quickly restarting production without changing existing processes.

They were able to continue production immediately with a mobile sawmill from SERRA. The system could be seamlessly integrated into their existing workflows and enabled a higher wood yield per trunk as a result of a thinner kerf.
