CookieMaker for Wood-Mizer Sawmills with Super Hydraulics

CookieMaker – Precision Accessory for Sawmills with Superhydraulic Systems

The CookieMaker opens up entirely new possibilities for processing logs on sawmills with superhydraulic systems. This innovative accessory makes producing decorative wood discs ("cookies") and premium rift cuts both efficient and safe.

Rift Cuts: Premium Wood for Special Demands

Rift cuts are among the most challenging and valuable cutting techniques in woodworking. In this radial cut, the annual growth rings run as perpendicular as possible through the cut wood. This produces boards with particularly uniform grain and high stability—ideal for high-end applications. The CookieMaker provides the stability needed for this precise cutting technique and facilitates frequent log rotations required for exact rift cuts.

Easy Installation for Maximum Efficiency

The CookieMaker can be installed in seconds on any sawmill with a superhydraulic system. The two components simply attach to the existing clamping elements and are secured with two M8 screws. This simple attachment makes the tool quickly operational and provides a stable hold for logs—ideal for handling orders for decorative wood discs and rift cuts, even on short notice.

Installation Instructions

The CookieMaker consists of two robust components that attach to the hydraulic log clamping elements of the sawmill and are secured with two M8 screws to prevent slippage. A wooden board is then placed on the log support, on which the log is positioned and secured. Clamping of the log is then carried out as usual via the sawmill's hydraulic system.

Expanded Capabilities for Demanding Cuts

Thanks to the CookieMaker, sawmills can now economically and safely produce both decorative wood discs and rift cuts. Especially with high-value logs where rift cuts are highly desired, the CookieMaker provides the necessary stability and flexibility—even when the log takes on an increasingly triangular shape through repeated rotations.
