Sawmill is a sawing pattern simulator for timber production (sawmill) planning, yield estimates, and financial analysis. Create sawing patterns, compare yield outcomes, and manage production-ready sawing strategies. Invite collaborators to work on patterns together in real-time. Manage and switch between multiple scenarios to test different patterns and outcomes. Gain insights into pattern performance and trends through pattern comparison features.
Sawmill was inspired by a simple challenge faced in timber production: finding the best way to turn valuable raw material into the right products, with less waste and better financial outcomes. Comparing different sawing patterns can involve time-consuming calculations and spreadsheets, making it difficult to quickly evaluate alternatives when production conditions or market requirements change.
Sawmill makes sawing pattern simulation more accessible and practical. Designed to work on any internet-connected device, it allows users to create patterns, compare yield and financial outcomes, test multiple scenarios, and collaborate with colleagues in real time. Mobile usability makes it easier to explore and compare alternatives wherever production planning decisions are being made.
By making pattern analysis faster and more transparent, Sawmill aims to support better use of every log. Better yield estimates and data-driven pattern comparisons can help sawmills improve raw material efficiency, reduce waste, and identify more profitable production strategies. Ultimately, the goal is to combine better operational and financial decisions with more efficient use of natural resources while supporting both productivity and sustainability.
