BoardScanner
Superior recovery from high density scanning at the sawmill trimmer.
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 sorting system.Features
