Winch Production Frame (WPF)

Cut Wide Boards with Ease

Mill dimensional timber up to 10″ x 20″ (254mm x 508mm) by Double Cutting. A double cut is the joining of two horizontal cuts together to obtain a wider board or slab using both sides of the blade, doubling your maximum width cut without the need to turn the mill around!

No Log Turning Involved

Whether utilising a Peterson Clip-on Chainsaw Slabber or simply milling the entire log for dimensional requirements or beams, you can maximise every inch of your log and quarter saw all day long without the need for extra machinery.

Single Point Height Adjustment

This system allows the operator to lower all four corners of the mill equally from one position at the operator’s end of the mill, saving time and improving accuracy. A big selling point over the Lucas type mills. The manual, single point winch system, may be upgraded to electric on the WPF.

Unbeatable Quality and Durability

Manufactured using high quality, hand polished stainless steel and aluminium, providing a virtually rust free sawmill. Using stronger, lighter materials also means the mills are robust in performance, and most importantly – have long-term durability in even the harshest conditions.

Rigid, Adaptable Track System

Utilizing a custom extrusion, the standard Lo/Lo ground based tracks offered with the WPF allow you to cut logs up to 6m in length with the option to upgrade to a Hi/Lo set up for increased versatility or extend your tracks at anytime to increase production, while maintaining portability. Double length tracks allow loading logs at one end while milling at the other without compromising accuracy and cut speed.

For the BIG LOG Chasers

Because Petersons custom make each and every sawmill, you have the option at the time of purchase to upgrade your WPF to a Giant Frame which allows you to cut even larger diameter logs up to 6.5ft (2m) or more!
