Winch Production Frame
The Winch Production Frame (WPF) was designed for productive sawmilling, cutting high quality, extremely accurate timber with portable or fixed-site milling. It is great for contractors and built from top quality materials for durability in any weather.
The WPF is a swing blade sawmill that has a manual one-point lowering system which can be upgraded to an Electric Winch for even faster vertical sizing at the touch of a button.
For ultimate efficiency the patented Hi/Lo track option allows easy log loading either over the top of the low rail with a loader, or by rolling the logs under the high rail.
As with Peterson’s other swing blade sawmills, the WPF can be fit with a Clip-on Slabber attachment which allows you to cut slabs for table tops, benches, bar leaners and more. Slabs are a very popular product amongst home builders and renovators and will result in a faster return on investment.
With the ability to add unlimited track extensions for commercial production, it is little wonder that the WPF Portable Sawmill is a customer favourite, especially with contract sawyers.
