StemScanner

Log optimization for each stem segment.

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.
