Cooks Board Edger

Description

Edge Fast. Sell More. Repeat.

Looking to crank up production and clean up rough-cut lumber fast? The AE Series Board Edger was built for one job: maximizing board footage and profits by pulling more usable lumber out of every cant.

Instead of tying up your sawmill to edge boards one-by-one, drop in an edger and cut that time down by 35% or more. Whether you're pairing it with the AC36 or running it standalone, you'll see faster processing, cleaner boards, and higher yields. That means more lumber, more output, and more money in your pocket.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a board edger do?

A board edger trims rough or uneven edges from boards cut on your sawmill, producing clean, uniform lumber. It increases yield by turning more of each cant into sellable board footage.

How much can a board edger increase production?

Using a dedicated board edger instead of your sawmill for edging can increase your production by at least 35%, freeing up your mill to focus on primary cuts.

What power options are available for the AE Board Edger?

The AE Series includes gas, diesel, and electric-powered models to fit a wide range of sawmill operations. All are designed for high output and durability.

Can I use the AE Edger with my AC36 sawmill?

Yes! The AE Edger is a perfect match for the AC36. Boards roll off the AC36’s gravity return system and go straight into the edger, streamlining your operation and reducing handling time.

Do these edgers come with trailer packages?

Yes, our gas and diesel-powered AE models include trailer packages for portability. Electric models come with a stationary frame and legs.

What are the blade sizes and cutting capacities?

Models are equipped with dual 12" or 14" split strobe saws depending on configuration. The AE Edger can process boards up to 34-1/2" wide and 4" tall on select models.

Why Choose Our Board Edgers?

If you're wondering what a board edger does, it’s simple: it takes rough-cut lumber and trims the edges to create uniform, straight boards—improving appearance, increasing usability, and reducing waste. For anyone serious about sawmill production, the answer to “are board edgers worth it?” is a resounding yes. Here’s why:

  • Portable and Powerful – Choose from portable board edgers for mobile setups or stationary models for consistent, high-volume edging. Designed for flexibility across any operation.
  • High Efficiency – Each board edger machine is built to streamline your lumber process, boosting sawmill productivity and maximizing your board footage yield.
  • Durability and Precision – Features like carbide-tipped dual split strobe saws, steel hold-down rollers, and hydraulic feed control ensure accurate cuts and long-term reliability.
  • Versatile Power Options – Whether you need electric, gas, or diesel power, there’s an AE Board Edger model to fit your production flow.

Are Board Edgers Worth It?

Absolutely! A wood edger like the Cook’s AE Series Board Edger is an investment in efficiency. By moving edging off your sawmill and onto a dedicated board edger machine, you can increase production by at least 35%. The AC36 Sawmill and AE Board Edger make the perfect team—after your mill cuts the boards, they roll directly onto the edger for fast, consistent processing. It’s a smart move for anyone looking to make their sawmill operation more profitable.
