Lumber Defect Scanner

Automatically Detects Defects in Lumber

The Tisfoon Lumber Defect Scanner automatically detects defects in lumber. The system may be directly placed inside an existing cut-off saw or it may be stand alone and servicing multiple saws. The advantage of placing the unit inside the cut-off saw is that no additional material handling is required. The Tisfoon Scanner is fast enough to defect and grade as the saw cuts the lumber.

The defect identification engine is based on statistical analysis and is therefore immune to lighting changes and even Lumber Species. In two installations the scanner is feed a mixture of species at the same time! The scanner is robust and not needing constant calibration.

With the Tisfoon Lumber Defect Scanner, production is increased as boards do not have to be marked anymore.
