The log lathe is intended for milling of roundish or D-shape house logs of different diameters from raw, dry or seasoned, barked or debarked logs of different species: pine, spruce, Douglas fir, cedar, hemlock and other. The machine performs following operations: • Rough & fine round dowel milling • Swedish cope profile milling • D-log profile milling • Round notch milling • Lateral kerfing cut In comparission to LL-41 of previous design (2008) new machine has number of improvements. What are the improvements? Improved capabilities: max log butt diameter: 24” (600mm) max Round notch diameter: 14” (360mm) Embedded microcontroller module allows: capable to work in automatic & semi-automatic modes (like a robotic CNC machine) to minimize an operator involvement moving carriage speed optimization depending on the milling motors load Redesigned machine base frame: allows using of optional waste conveyor Redesigned moving carriage frame (box type): allows better safety and waste control integrated 3-point log support (stay) device for better output geometry extra support device to eliminate inconsistency while milling the lateral groove Redesigned tail and head stocks with reliable log lifting mechanism Redesigned control panel Laser guiding pointers for better log placement
