The StemScanner is the evolution of Raptor’s log scanning and optimization moved upstream to tackle the requirements of the Merchandiser. The system supports single or multiple linear scan zones to build a 3D model of the stem at high production speeds. Scan density is determined by the sensor of choice with typical resolutions in the range of ½” to 2” between slices.

The StemScanner-Q is the latest innovation in log quality scanning and optimization technology. Log surface geometry, as well as internal defects, are detected. This critical data is used to determine the value of the raw material and the best use in final products. Industrial X-ray data is combined with the geometric 3D model of surface characteristics such as ovality, taper, sweep and surface i...

The FlitchScanner produces the highest value untrimmed boards from a flitch at the edging machine center. The system supports configurations for both transverse and linear infeed. High-density 3D modelling enables the optimization logic to identify the smallest of geometric defects, even rot. Multiple scan zones are supported on lineal infeeds to minimize the system's mechanical footprint.

The FlitchScanner-Q (FSQ) is the evolution of Raptor’s vision-based board scanning and optimization, moved upstream to tackle the requirements of the edger. Utilizing the added technologies of colour vision and tracheid analysis the FSQ produces the highest-grade untrimmed boards from the flitch. Proprietary AI software is used to recognize down gradable defects that are incorporated into the so...

Raptor's BoardScanner produces the highest value trimmed board presented to the sawmill trimmer. High-density scanning models surface characteristics to accurately identify wane, machine damage, holes, rot along with other surface irregularities. The BoardScanner runs stand-alone or fully integrated with Raptor’s WEBSort, eliminating redundancies and incompatibilities experienced with a separate...
