WOODWORKING
Solving critical quality, efficiency, and process control challenges for sawmills, lumber yards, and wood processing facilities.
The Hidden Costs
FOUR PROCESSING CHALLENGES IMPACTING YOUR OPERATIONS
Every defect compounds into material waste, rework, and customer complaints
Inconsistent Moisture Content Causing Product Defects
Improper moisture monitoring leads to warping, cracking, shrinkage, and dimensional instability, creating scrap material, failed adhesion, and products that don't meet export standards.
Positioning
Errors in Automated Processing
Inaccurate log detection and positioning in debarking, edging, trimming, and cutting operations causes material waste, blade damage, production stops, and safety hazards.
Uncontrolled Drying Chamber Conditions
Manual temperature and humidity checks miss critical fluctuations, causing over-drying or under-drying, energy waste, extended drying times, and inconsistent batch quality.
Harsh Environment Sensor Failures
Standard sensors fail from sawdust accumulation, wood chips, vibrations, moisture, and collisions, causing measurement gaps, false readings, and frequent equipment replacement.
Proven Solutions
AUTOMATION SYSTEMS BUILT FOR WOOD PROCESSING
Industry-specific solutions that withstand sawmill environments
Precision Moisture Monitoring for Wood Processing
Continuous moisture monitoring from 6-85% with direct insertion sensors, ensuring optimal drying control, export compliance, and product quality in lumber, furniture, and plywood manufacturing.
Debarking Control
To determine the diameter of a log before it enters a debarking machine. As a log moves toward the debarker, an EZ‑ARRAY receiver determines the total number of beams that are blocked.
Controlling temperature and humidity wireless in a large room
There is need not only to monitor, but to control the temperature and humidity throughout many rooms in a large production facility. Sure Cross temperature and humidity sensors.
