Curve Sawing Gang

The Newnes/McGehee gangsaw features the revolutionary skewing and slewing CNC Saw Module.

  • Chip heads mounted ahead of saws to eliminate slabs
  • Accurate motion controllers and linear positioners ensure accurate curved solutions
  • Infeed & outfeed sections are static with heavy driven feed rolls providing stability
  • Available with single or double arbors
  • Clamshell on the infeed module allows comfortable access for saw changes and maintenance
  • Slew & skew module rests on virtually frictionless cam rollers on hardened tracks
  • Slew travel can be increased to provide for additional banks of saws to allow different products to be sawn from varying thickness or quality of cants
  • Timber pockets, fixed or adjustable, between saw banks

Curve Sawing Gang ImageThe latest version, Gen. II, incorporates some new features such as pivoting anvils behind larger chip heads with driven rolls. This allows:

  • Greater chipping depth of cut
  • Shallower chipping scallops
  • Better control of the cant in the chipping/sawing zone
  • Ability to process shorter wood
  • Ability to both step in and out with the chip heads to generate short side boards
