EG50 Single Blade Edger

Increase production and profits by turning flitches, sideboards, and slabs into clean square-edged lumber with a board edger. The EG50 is an entry-level single blade lumber edger designed for sawyers who want to maximize the value of every board while minimizing investment. Edging boards one at a time maximizes the value of every board rather than sacrificing usable lumber by gang edging boards on a sawmill. Also save production time by edging boards all in-line without having to set them down and pick them up again.

Operation

A simple pull handle adjusts to any board width in 1/8” increments up to 12” wide. Once the board width is set, flitches, sideboards, and slabs with wane or bark are fed manually through the edger blade. The 10” (254mm) diameter carbide-tipped blade removes one side of the board at a time. For boards that need both sides edged, the material is sent through the edger blade again to square the opposite side of the board. Square-edged boards can also be resized by feeding material through the single edger blade. The EG50 can produce up to a 12” wide square-edged finished board with a maximum board thickness of 2-1/2”.
