Sawmill/Research Development

Overview

An Appropriate Scale GVCS worthy Sawmill with a modular design that integrates tightly with GVCS equipment.

• Sawmill Design

Details

• Mobile Dimension Sawmill is being used as a initial Industry Standard. As the design progresses, it is expected to diverge radically from the initial prototype. Separation of the power unit, hydraulic power, and automation are being explored for later designs.
