LOG ORIENTATION SORTER
Log Orientation Sorter
Pinnacle SA manufactures Log Orientation Sorters. Our Log Orientation Sorters provide precise orientation adjustments, improved lumber yield, and reduced waste. They play a crucial role in optimising the cutting process and ensuring the production of high-quality lumber.
How it works:
- Log Feeding: Logs are fed into the sorter, often from a conveyor system.
- Scanning and Analysis: The sorter uses advanced scanning technology, such as laser or X-ray scanners, to assess the log’s shape, grain orientation, and any defects.
- Orientation Adjustment: Based on the scan data, the sorter automatically adjusts the log’s position to ensure that it is oriented correctly for processing. This might involve rotating or tilting the log.
Key Benefits:
- Improved Lumber Yield: By ensuring that logs are cut in the most optimal orientation, log orientation sorters can significantly increase lumber yield.
- Reduced Waste: Proper orientation can minimize waste by reducing overcut and undercut during processing.
- Improved Quality: Correctly oriented logs can result in higher-quality lumber with fewer defects.
- Increased Efficiency: By optimising the cutting process, log orientation sorters can improve the overall efficiency of sawmill operations.
Applications:
- Sawmills: Log orientation sorters are commonly used in sawmills to optimise the processing of logs into lumber.
- Research and Development: Log orientation sorters can be used in research and development to study the relationship between log orientation and lumber quality.
