Sorting green lumber by heartwood content and/or grain angle for processing with specially adapted drying methods can vastly reduce drying times and improve board shapes. It also enables new products based on heartwood content.
The system can be used in several ways:
Heartwood and Grain Angle On-Line are measuring systems based on laser and image processing that can detect heartwood content and grain angle, or both, in one unit during transverse feeding in the sawmill’s green sorting line. The system can work as a standalone unit or be connected to existing automatic green sorting stations, where heartwood content and grain angle are included as grading parameters.
