Woodlandia LTPS-machines of 150 and 300 series

Woodlandia Log Through Pass Sawmills (LTPS-machines) are intended for processing of small and medium diameter softwood and hardwood raw barked stems into dimensional lumber or custom boards.

What are Woodlandia LTPS machines?

LTPS stands for Log Through Pass Sawmill. So Woodlandia machines of LTPS series are intended to mill logs into boards timbers or plank just in one pass. This provides great time & speed benefits into the wood milling process. Woodlandia offers several models of LTPS machines:

  • LTPS-300 - Next generation, more powerful and capable sawmill for processing of small diameter stems into dimensional or custom lumber in one pass.
    Max butt dia: 12” (300mm) and with extra butt reducer it can accommodate logs upto 14" (360mm).
  • LTPS-150XP - more powerful version of LTPS-150ME machine for processing of small diameter stems into dimensional or custom lumber in one pass.
    Max butt dia: 9” (230mm)
  • LTPS-150ME - (discontinued) the sawmill for processing of small diameter stems (max butt dia: 9” or 230mm) into dimensional or custom lumber in one pass. The machine eliminate all hard-waste (slabs) turning it into shavings. In other words the machine mills boards and does not "produce" slabs but only sawdust and shavings. 
  • LTPS-150E - older generation of the sawmills of LTPS-150 series


 

Who may need LTPS-log mill?

LTPS-machines are efficient solution for:

  • businesses sawing big amount of small diameter raw stems (pls refer to specification below for max raw stem diameter)
  • businesses specializing in sawing of hardwoods into boards for furniture industry and door/window applications
  • loggers who want to recover lumber from small diameter stems efficiently at a job site
  • businesses utilizing beetle or fire killed stems
  • Pallet board manufacturers 

 

Why Woodlandia LTPS machine?

  1. LTPS-log rip sawmill is 20+ times more productive than any band saw mill
  2. Better product yeld than in other typed of sawmills
  3. One-pass-all-done principle allows lesser foot print and personnel
  4. LTPS-machines are well balanced in terms of price/throuput, in other words for unit of $ the owner gets much eficient productivity
  5. LTPS-machines are robust and reliable, provenly working in rough conditions since 2008
  6. LTPS-machines are flexible and can be re-set for different cut-profiles during 1-3 hours (about 100 different profiles where created by 2019)
  7. Woodlandia LTPS-machine can allow a small business to step up onto new level of productivity
  8. These machines can be installed in a shop or in a field under an awning or in a shed

What else one shall know about LTPS-mills?

  • The price of the LTPS-machine can be 5-10 times more expensive than a band sawmill but the throughput can be 20+ times more productive
  • For better throughput LTPS-mill requires some infrustructure: automated in-feed & out-feed log decks, autometed in-feed/outfeed conveyors, waste removing conveyour, forklift for delivering logs to/from the log decks
  • For better throughput log sorting is required
  • All parts in LTPS-machine are metric
  • LTPS-machine requires 3phase industrial power: 460V/60Hz (USA & Canada) or 3800V/50Hz (Euroope, Australia, NZ, South America)

Productivity


In general the productivity can be calculated from the machine trougput capacity (the feeding speed). The diameter of logs and the final cuting profile determine the final productivity of the machine.
For example LTPS-150ME can mill logs with speed  19-50 ft/min (6-16 m/min). But milling 6" dia logs will produce less FBM than milling of 9" dia logs.

Also the productivity of LTPS machine depends on following factors:

  • infrastructure and logistics (in-feed/out-feed automation)
  • wood species
  • boards layout: number of circular saw-blades installed & max height of boards to cut
  • tool sharpness
  • moisture content of the wood
