Introducing the Future of Sawmilling: Wood-Mizer’s Battery-Powered Portable Sawmill

18.09.2024
In response to the rising demand for battery-powered tools and outdoor equipment, Wood-Mizer is proud to introduce the industry’s first portable sawmill. The innovative lithium-ion powered sawmill offers a convenient alternative, providing users with a consistent, reliable, high-quality sawing experience. Available on the popular LT15WIDE model, this breakthrough sawmill enables woodworking enthusiasts and forestry professionals to embrace the future of fully portable sawmilling.
Designed for Performance and Efficiency
Building upon the solid foundation of the LT15 series, the new LT15 Battery Sawmill integrates cutting-edge features, including an intelligent power feed, power up/down functions, and an upgraded Setworks system with enhanced capabilities. Like its predecessor, the LT15CLASSIC WIDE, the battery-powered version handles logs up to 90 cm in diameter, while its modular bed allows for cutting logs up to 5.4 meters long. The new sawmill is available in stationary and mobile versions.
With multiple power options, including gas, diesel, electric, and now battery, the LT15WIDE sawmill offers versatility to meet any user's needs. The new battery option stands out as the perfect choice for those seeking ease of use and reliable performance, with the bonus of a cleaner, quieter sawing experience.


Battery Power for Ultimate Convenience
The LT15 Battery Sawmill is supplied with four powerful 1.4 kWh lithium-ion batteries, allowing for hours of continuous operation. A standard quick charger, compatible with any 230V/50Hz household outlet, makes recharging easy and convenient. The sawmill can be configured with up to six batteries for extended use, enabling an impressive 8-hour operating time, depending on wood type and cutting requirements. The battery system meets strict safety standards, including vibration, thermal shock, and short-circuit protection, ensuring safe and efficient operation.




Innovative Features for Smarter Sawmilling
At the heart of the LT15 Battery Sawmill is the groundbreaking Smart Power Feed technology, which automatically adjusts cutting speeds based on the type of wood, log size, and blade sharpness. This advanced system delivers real-time data and optimizes the sawing process for maximum efficiency. Additionally, the updated SW-B control panel features an automatic self-diagnostic module to monitor key technical parameters and inform the operator of battery charge levels, energy consumption, and the temperature of the engine and batteries.






Key Features of the LT15 Battery Sawmill:
- Smart Power Feed: Innovative technology that continuously monitors sawing parameters, optimizing motor performance to deliver the best possible cutting results.
- SW-B Control Panel: This panel features automatic cutting height adjustment and provides crucial data such as battery charge level, energy usage, and engine and battery temperatures.
- Durable Battery Housing: Located in an easily accessible spot where a traditional engine would be mounted, the battery housing is dust-tight, moisture-resistant, and designed to withstand outdoor conditions.
- Battery Configurations: The sawmill operates with 4, 5, or 6 batteries, providing flexibility and extended operational hours for large projects.
- Fast Charging: The included charging station allows simultaneous charging of up to 6 batteries and can be connected to a standard electrical outlet. Charging four batteries takes approximately 4 hours, with each additional battery extending the charge time by an hour.
- Mobile sawmilling: The sawmill is ready for transportation on public roads, allowing sawyers to engage in remote projects and saw timber independently.
