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.

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.

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 4th 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.

PLUS
THE LUMBERPRO HD36 FEATURES

ULTIMATE FLEXIBILITY TO GO FULLY HYDRAULIC
Harness the muscle of hydraulics: Build up your HD36 with hydraulic log loading, rolling, clamping and toe boards. Power it up: Add remote-control power-feed, power sawhead or intelligent setworks.

QUICK-SET, AUTO-LOCKING LOG RESTS
Fast, one-handed vertical adjustment, auto-locking and singleaction retraction of log rests saves you time and aggravation.

MOVEABLE LOG CLAMPING STATIONS
Quickly change log clamping positions along your log deck to mill ultra-short or ultra-long logs. Designed for rapid-repositioning, log clamping stations can be moved to available extra receivers installed along the bed.

LATERALLY-ADJUSTABLE LOG RESTS
Safely and quickly mill irregular or knotty logs using the laterallyadjustable log rests that you can move towards, or away, from the fixed blade guide.

RUGGED OVER-CENTRE CAM DOGS
Powerful cam dogs bite hard and lock fast in both logs and cants.

OVERSIZED BANDWHEELS
Measuring 20¼” x 7/8” (50 cm x 2.2 cm), the ultra-wide surface area of the HD36’s commercial-size cast-iron, precision-machined and balanced bandwheels minimizes blade cupping and delivers maximum blade support for truer cuts and extended blade life.

DEBRIS-SHEDDING CROSS-BUNKS
Avoid uneven cuts from debris-build-up under your cant thanks to the sawdust-shedding narrow-profile plate-steel cross-bunks. Equipped standard with stainless-steel caps to prevent staining of your valuable hardwoods.

LUMBERPRO HD36
STEEL-STRONG LOG DECK

The LumberPro uses twin double-plated debossed commercial-grade-steel rails in its wide-track log deck. Debossed steel is much stronger and more rigid than flat, unformed steel. Some people may try to mislead you about this important fact — Don’t be fooled by uninformed name-calling!

Norwood’s debossed-steel technology is super-strong – thousands of hardworking Norwood portable sawmill owners prove it every day!

What’s more, the boxed front and rear end-frames are extra-rigid structures that provide added strength and torsional stability. Greater strength, stiffness and lighter weight mean greater structural integrity.
