“Our small-scale system has changed forestry all over the world, and become the core of countless wood-processing companies. With the Logosol Sawmill M8, we want to give our customers the best. The model comprises over 20 years of experience of small-scale sawing and offers an extraordinary sawing experience,” says Mattias Byström, Product Manager at Logosol’s headquarters in Sweden.

A Perfect one-man Sawmill

Distributors from all over the world were represented when the Logosol Sawmill M8 was introduced at the Swedish headquarters at the end of October. Easier to handle logs, simpler to set up and more accessories integrated are some examples of modifications. The material is still extruded aluminium alloy, and like its precursor, it can be equipped with several different saw units: the classic petrol chainsaw, the environmentally friendly electric chainsaw, the efficient bandsaw or the log house moulder for milling timber for log houses.

“We decided to develop the most perfect one-man sawmill for chainsaws. We started the development by asking our customers how the most sold sawmill in the world could be made even better. With their thoughts and ideas as a point of departure, we continued the developing project. The result is the Logosol Sawmill M8,” says Mattias Byström.

Complete Range for Wood Processing

Customer focus is an important part of Logosol’s recipe for success, especially when it comes to developing new products. Over the years, early test clients have helped shape machines like the four-sided planer/moulder Logosol PH260, the Soloplaner SH230 and the band sawmill LM Pro.

Developing and selling unique machines and services within the field of wood processing is the basis of the company, which was launched in 1989. The very same year, the first Logosol Sawmill model was introduced. Today, model 5, model 7 and now model 8 are being sold. Besides portable sawmills, planer/moulders, joinery machines and band sawmills are included in the line of products.

“With sales in over 65 countries, offering a complete range of products is important to us,” says Mattias Byström.

Here comes their top model in a bespoke version made for Logosol’s customers.

There are not days enough in the year for Anders Assarsson who runs Svenshult’s Sawmill south of Gothenburg on the Swedish west coast. Even though the largest model of Logosol-Låks frame saw is going at full speed and the neighbours are helping out.
Now, the frame saw is to be automated, with the help of a large circular saw.

”Slice up your storm-felled trees! It is done quickly and you preserve all the good qualities of the timber.” This advice comes from Logosol’s founder, Bengt-Olov Byström, who continues thinking small-scale after the hard winds of this winter.

800 million people live in and of the forest. Many are poor and would get a better life if their commodities and work were valued higher.
Part of a solution was presented this summer in a one thousand year old church ruin: doubly eco-labelled wooden flooring, produced in southern Chile with equipment from Logosol.

Boat building has ancient traditions. Lars Wigren belongs to the growing number that carries the traditions on with the help of an own sawmill.

This year it is the tenth anniversary of the Logosol Sawmill model 7. 
Logosol celebrates this by taking the next step in development, the M8. But what happened on the way here?

The Logosol Sawmill M8 is the new model of the world’s most sold sawmill.
”We collected feedback from Logosol Sawmill owners all over the world,” says the product manager Mattias Byström at Logosol’s headquarters in Sweden.

Arne Larsson is a man of actions. He seldom regrets anything. Except when he a couple of years ago, cut up a large quantity of alder into firewood.
”Alder is the most beautiful sort of wood in the Swedish forests,” says Arne, who recently built a sauna, panelled with spalted and oiled alder.

What will a boat builder do when he cannot obtain mahogany that is wide enough? He takes his sawmill and goes to the woods.
”In the Swedish woods there are several interesting sorts of wood, like oak, elm and ash,” says Johan Nilsson, one of three boat builders behind the company Båthantverkarna (‘The Boat Craftsmen’ in English) in Stockholm.

Just in time for the planing season, Logosol introduces a completely new machine, which combines simplicity with larger size. To those who are already acquainted with the Logosol range of products this is a long-awaited big brother to the popular Logosol SH230, that was introduced more than ten years ago.

After investing in a sawmill the couple bought a Soloplaner. "A sawmill without a planer, it's like a computer without a printer," says Ronny Karlsson.

John Haag in Sweden has found his niche in small-scale wood processing. With his two sawmills he started a log home factory. His band sawmill can handle the rough logs, the portable sawmill runs the log house molder.

With his own sawmill, Gerard Saulnier can finally realize his dreams: making logs from the trees growing on the family estate.

Eight Laks saws turned a wrecked pine plantation into profitable forestry with record-low investment costs. The alternative would have been to burn down the whole forest plantation.

A new bimetallic blade with HSS teeth has been developed by Hakansson Sawblades. We visited the company and met CEO Olle Bergren for an interview.

The big challenge when it comes to industrial projects in developing countries is to find simple and durable equipment that give high productivity and quality.  Klas Bengtsson in Sweden has made this challenge his mission in life.

A neat sawmill shed was the first project when the family invested in a portable sawmill with log house molder.
"Here we can produce timber all winter, "says Donald Oberg.

”It takes hardly any time at all to saw and the results are good,” says Michael Högdahl, who makes shooting tower construction kits using a bandsaw on a Logosol sawmill. One of the shooting towers is disguised - as a moose!

Air-drying works well if you are going to use the timber to build a house. But you can’t rely on the spring winds to dry it enough for use in furniture.
”It’s the biology that means furniture timber has to be dried artificially,” says Svante Larsson, who together with Leif Mattsson came up with the Sauno wood kiln.
