Wood-Mizer HR700 Industrial Horizontal Resaw

1. Modular Multi-Head Resaw Design

The HR700 is engineered around a flexible modular concept that allows manufacturers to scale production as demand grows.

Configuration Options

• Standard 2-head setup

• Expandable to 6 cutting heads

• Increased production capacity

• Future-proof investment

This modular architecture enables businesses to start with a smaller configuration and expand as operations grow.

2. High-Capacity Cant Processing

The HR700 efficiently converts cants into multiple finished boards in a single pass.

Capacity Specifications

• Maximum Cant Size: 400 mm × 400 mm (15.75" × 15.75")

• Standard Cant Length: 3.6 m (12 ft)

• Extended Length Capability: Unlimited with additional feed systems

The machine is designed to maximize throughput while maintaining cutting accuracy.

3. Exceptional Lumber Recovery

Wood-Mizer's thin-kerf band blade technology helps improve yield from every cant processed.

Benefits

• Increased board recovery

• Reduced sawdust generation

• Lower raw material waste

• Improved profitability

Compared to conventional circular resaws, the HR700 delivers significantly higher lumber recovery rates.

4. Up to Six Simultaneous Cutting Heads

Multiple cutting heads allow the machine to produce several boards in a single pass.

Advantages

• Increased throughput

• Reduced processing time

• Consistent board dimensions

• Lower labor costs

This capability makes the HR700 highly attractive for industrial production facilities.

5. Powerful Industrial Drive Systems

Each cutting head can be equipped with dedicated high-performance motors.

Motor Options

• 11 kW (15 HP)

• 15 kW (20 HP)

• 18.5 kW (25 HP)

• 22.5 kW (30 HP)

These power options provide the flexibility needed to process both softwoods and dense hardwoods.

6. Heavy-Duty Blade System

The HR700 utilizes industrial-grade bandsaw blades optimized for continuous production.

Blade Specifications

• Blade Length: 184" (4670 mm)

• Blade Width Range: 32–38 mm

• Thin-kerf design

• High cutting accuracy

The blade system is engineered for extended production runs and maximum efficiency.

7. Large 24-Inch Blade Wheels

The machine incorporates large precision-balanced blade wheels.

Benefits

• Improved blade tracking

• Reduced vibration

• Longer blade life

• Smoother operation

Large wheels help maintain cutting accuracy during continuous industrial use.

8. Centralized Hydraulic Blade Tensioning

Each pair of cutting heads is equipped with a centralized hydraulic blade tensioning system.

Advantages

• Consistent blade tension

• Reduced setup time

• Improved cutting precision

• Easier maintenance

Proper blade tension contributes directly to better board quality and longer blade life.

9. Flexible Board Production Capability

The HR700 can process a wide range of board dimensions.

Minimum Finished Dimensions

• Minimum Board Thickness: 6 mm (1/4")

• Minimum Board Width: 75 mm (3")

This flexibility enables manufacturers to produce products for multiple market segments.

10. Designed for Industrial Production Environments

The HR700 is engineered for demanding industrial operations.

Ideal Industries

• Commercial sawmills

• Lumber remanufacturing plants

• Pallet production facilities

• Flooring manufacturers
