The saw that cuts logs to length or cuts the ends off is called a head-rig saw or head saw = Blocksäge, Vorschnittsäge. In typical sawmill operations the log is first fed to the head saw for the purpose of cutting the log into various lengths.

: I only read "Vorschnittsäge". Where is the "Nachschnittsäge"?

I don't know where you're doing your reading, but one of the terms for resaw given in the dictionary cited is Nachschnittsäge. What's your point?

only comment for Hanns-henning Judek
After looking into the Holz-Fachwörterbuch (link provided by Ute Bartz, Thank you) I am nearly convinced. There are two types of resaws: Tandem-Trennbandsägemaschine (tandem resaw) und Trennbandsägemaschine (narrow band resaw). The asker has to choose.

Kim Metzger
: A resaw can be a bandsaw or a circular saw. It is incorrect to say there are two types of resaw. A tandem resaw is simply two resaws working together.
