As an exhibitor at the “Timber Processing & Energy Expo” held on September 28th to the 30th in Portland Oregon, team Autolog presented some of our most recent technological advances for both the sawmill and planer mill, such as our:

• split & shake and obvious unsound wood detection feature using only 3D sensors (no additional vision sensor required) in a fully operational transverse optimizer
• knot detection on green/rough lumber using only tracheid data (including blond knots) in a fully operational transverse optimizer
• new color camera with a higher resolution and better color sensitivity in a ProGrader scanner modular
• new TBS-2 tracheid sensor to detect knots (including light colored knots such as blond knots) and unsound wood in a ProGrader scanner module
• complete ProGSP Grade Stamp Printer
• key user interfaces operational in simulation mode
