Pretty clever. Been wanting to engineer a DC powered sawmill with a motor somewhere between a 37 hp forklift and a 5 hp golf cart. Logosol does *sell* a three-phase motor ready to go that goes 8 kilowatts, or 20 hp. The next step in invention I would guess is making a fold-out photovoltaic trailer housing for such a mill.

Looking at going on a similar journey myself, thank you so much for showing us the details. One point! I don’t think your machine has high enough RPM! The logosol electric mill (e5) uses a 2800rpm motor with a large 24t sprocket. Just done the maths and that leads to 21m/s speed which is about right for a chainsaw. Assuming you're using a 3/8" pitch chain and 2800rpm motor with 7t sprocket, the chain speed is just 6.2m/s.

Hi Andrew. I think 5hp is the biggest single phase motor you can get? A bigger motor like a 10-15hp would be better but these seem to be 3 phase. 3 phase motors can be run on single phase with the use of a VFD but they draw a lot of amps. To run a large 3 phase motor I would probably have to put in a new 30 amp (maybe more) circuit on the hose from the main box, this is a possibility in the future.

@edwarnock45343 жыл бұрын
One consideration not addressed by you video is that chainsaws require lubrication of the bar and chain or they overheat causing the chain and bar undue wear. I have used chainsaws most my life and if you skip filling the bar oiler you end up with a chain and bar that will not cut straight even if carefully and accurately sharpened. In addition your chain will not hold an edge as the heat will soften the heat treated saw teeth. I would suggest an oil tank, and line to feed into the bar oiler hole with a cylinder and plunger assembly of some sort that you can use to like the bar and chain.

The reason no one uses chainsaws for proper mills is if you have an in situ mill you sure as hell can use a band therefore instead of wasting a quarter inch of wood per cut and scratching the shit out of the surfaces you get a nice clean 2-5mm cut with brushed surfaces.

@@simonlaverdure9449 I changed plans a little and now intent to mount the plate attached to the motor onto a steel plate. As the backing plate has slots where it bolts on that should allow me to tension the chain by moving the motor.
Unbelievable. This is awesome
Great concept, imo isolate failure points such as using wood for motor spindles..take the wood you created and at least sand cast out aluminum or steel with the wooden ones you created. I do it often with plastic parts from tóols I purchase. A few hours could save a person thousands. Anyways, kudos! Welll done.

How many RPMs is the motor running at
LOL when he said making the chainsaw he really meant it eh?? amazing video
Pretty darn good idea you have there
How many rotations a minute does the motor have? I can only get ones with 1400. Is that any good? Normal chainsaws seem to have more.
no doubt man

I think I saw a 240 volt sign on the motor and it was 5 horsepower.
ok, i want one ... and a truck and trailer to haul logs and land to stack wood
Hi, interesting project, like the low tech solutions, just wondering about the chain speed, obviously the motor speed is slower than a chainsaw engine, is this a problem? cheers

Nice work. I’m interested in how you chose your motor. Is 5hp the right amount of power for Aussie hardwoods. Look forward to more videos.

Hi Andrew. I think 5hp is the biggest single phase motor you can get? A bigger motor like a 10-15hp would be better but these seem to be 3 phase. 3 phase motors can be run on single phase with the use of a VFD but they draw a lot of amps. To run a large 3 phase motor I would probably have to put in a new 30 amp (maybe more) circuit on the hose from the main box, this is a possibility in the future.

@@mtarrant3 Could you tell me how many amps the motor draws and it's rpm please? I'm struggling to find a motor that can run on a uk domestic 13amp/230v socket with even half the speed of a petrol saw. Even with a large sprocket the chain speed wouldn't be ideal. Great video mate. Thanks.

@mtarrant3

Check out the next video
One consideration not addressed by you video is that chainsaws require lubrication of the bar and chain or they overheat causing the chain and bar undue wear. I have used chainsaws most my life and if you skip filling the bar oiler you end up with a chain and bar that will not cut straight even if carefully and accurately sharpened. In addition your chain will not hold an edge as the heat will soften the heat treated saw teeth. I would suggest an oil tank, and line to feed into the bar oiler hole with a cylinder and plunger assembly of some sort that you can use to like the bar and chain.

Maybe You have some plans and You could send ?
The reason no one uses chainsaws for proper mills is if you have an in situ mill you sure as hell can use a band therefore instead of wasting a quarter inch of wood per cut and scratching the shit out of the surfaces you get a nice clean 2-5mm cut with brushed surfaces.
