Services
Defect Scanner
Automated defect detection using cameras and lasers identifies knots, cracks, and wane in lumber. Replaces manual grading for consistent quality across pallet grading and cross-cutting applications. Integrates with saw optimizers to maximize material yield.
Retrofit Systems
Modernize existing cut-off saws and rip saws with absolute encoder servo motors. Eliminates calibration needs while improving precision for boards up to 12" wide. Cost-effective alternative to purchasing new machinery.
Optimization Algorithms
Advanced algorithms analyze defect data to determine optimal cutting patterns. Reduces waste by calculating precise blade positions for cross-cutting and ripping operations. Compatible with multiple production lines simultaneously.
Machine Vision
High-speed camera systems detect board shape and defects in real time. Directs lumber into rip saws at optimal angles for maximum usable output. Works with both new and retrofitted equipment.
Remote Monitoring
Complimentary remote diagnostics access machinery for troubleshooting and performance adjustments. Minimizes downtime through instant connectivity. Available for all installed systems without additional fees.
