About Lucas Mill

The World's Leading
Portable Sawmill Brand.

Lucas Mill has been engineering portable swing-blade sawmills in New Zealand since 1994. Their patented swing-blade mechanism — a single TCT circular blade that pivots between horizontal and vertical cutting positions — means no blade sharpening, no tension adjustments, and no tracking. Just cut.

With over 20,000 mills sold in 100+ countries, Lucas Mill equipment has proven itself everywhere from Pacific island communities to North American timber operations. The 8-30 won the prestigious Sawmill Shootout with 922 board feet per hour and zero miss-cuts — a record no competitor has matched.
