LogScanner

High speed lineal log scanning with curve sawing and profiling capabilities.

The LogScanner Optimizer produces the highest value of cants and board combinations at the primary breakdown machine center. 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. High-density scanning models surface characteristics such as ovality, taper, sweep and surface irregularities. Curve sawing and profiling capabilities to ensure maximum recovery while taking a load off your edger. Utilized on small log machines and gangs.
