This level of technology sets the benchmark. Plus, the LumberMax HD38 features:

WORLD’S ONLY OMEGA DEEP-THROAT SAWHEAD


Produce oversized beams up to 14-inches (36 cm) in depth thanks to Norwood’s patented Omega Sawhead engineered to deliver industry-leading deep-throat capacity.

The Omega® pairs state-of-the-art “omega”-shape with Norwood’s iconic patented laminated sawhead technology known for delivering superior rigidity and EZ blade tension functionality. Lowering the bandwheels relative to the drive train gives you the power to handle jaw-dropping dimensions.

Dual cast-aluminum rigid core frames, engineered to handle extreme load levels, tackle the biggest logs and open your wood to a world of massive opportunities.

Norwood’s patented Omega is the ultimate in sawhead engineering that delivers it all: outstanding performance, ultra-confident capability and effortless sawing.

4-AXIS ADJUSTABLE BLADE GUIDE TECHNOLOGY – CONTROL WITHOUT COMPROMISE


Norwood’s advanced machined blade guide assembly delivers positive alignment of the blade through angular and lateral adjustment on all 3 axes. It also gives you control over the 4 axis – along the pitch plane about the blade’s longitudinal axis.

Its patented pivoting shaft block to trunnion block geometry featuring a nominal fulcrum delivers precise fine-adjust control over both blade guides on the for-aft plane.

The state-of-the-art dual-technology guides pair ceramic blocks with bearing-equipped heat-treated steel rollers to protect against deflection forces exerted on the blade and deliver precise cuts.

HYDRAULICS: READY, WILLING AND CAPABLE – CONQUER YOUR SAWMILLING DESTINY


Norwood HD38 was built big – so you can saw big. The ability to take on the biggest logs, make the deepest cut and mill ultra-wide slabs: That’s the ultimate sawmill dream and the LumberMax HD38 is all that and more.

Crank up the volume even higher with available hydraulic and power attachments. Norwood’s HD38 empowers you with outstanding choices – including high-power hydraulics and leading-edge computer setworks. And you choose when and how you add them.

Add the muscle of hydraulics: the HD38 is willing and waiting – whenever you’re ready. Available comprehensive hydraulic attachments include log loader, chain-drive log turner, log clamping and roller toe boards.

Take control. Make your mark

WIDE-SLAB CAPABILITY

The HD38’s huge throat with integrated patented auto-locking adjustable guide system turns out prized slabs up to 35” (89 cm) wide.

EXTREME DIMENSIONS

14” (36 cm) clearance over the blade produces impressive deep cuts, oversized beams and unparalleled output.

DURADECK® LOG DECK

Engineered from the ground up for heavy-duty assignments, Norwood’s patented Duradeck’s twin-laminated roll-formed high-strength galvanized steel rails with solid steel plate cross members are designed and built to handle extreme loads.

4-AXIS MICRO-ADJUST GUIDES

Fine-tune the guides for optimally-aligned blade support on the longitudinal axis as well as all 3 linear axes.

POWER SAWHEAD

Equipped standard with power sawhead up-down functionality. Activated by a 2-way toggle switch, you control the vertical speed by means of a potentiometer dial integrated into the operator-station-mounted control panel.

TAKE IT TO THE MAX

Harness the muscle of hydraulics: Build up your HD38 with hydraulic log loading, rolling, clamping and toe boards. Power it up: Add wireless remote-control power-feed and IntelliSet® computer setworks.
