BoardProfiler
Overview
The BoardProfiler is a complete system for scanning of boards on tranverse conveyors providing high accuracy board measurement for grading/sorting or trim saw optimisation. The system uses high precision PreciCura laser sensors that provide a detailed board profile measurement. The number and location of the sensors can be chosen by the customer to suit your particular needs.
Quick Spec
| Thickness range (typical) | Thickness accuracy | Width resoluton | Laser measuring rate |
| 5-150 mm | ±0.2 mm | 1.0 mm | 2000 Hz |
Operating principle
The boards are measured using a series of PreciCura SR high speed lasers typically mounted every 300 mm. This enables the entire profile of the board to be accurately determined. The lasers use the principle of optical laser triangulation and will measure to any type of wood green or dry.
Applications
- In process board width & thickness measurement at multiple positions
- Wane optimisation and automated cutting on trimmers
- Shape defect measurement and cutting optimisation
- Side bow measurement
- Flatness measurement
- Twist measurement
- Board cup determination (concave/convex curvature)
- Board length measurement (optional)
- Full dimensional measurement on sorting or grading lines
