Scanner solution for value-optimized cutting
“Digital optimization solutions and scanners are reserved for large sawmills and wood industries purely for cost reasons.”
Digital optimization solutions and scanners are believed to be reserved for large sawmills and wood industries solely due to cost reasons.” This misconception has been proven wrong once again by Alpiscan, based in Feldthurns, Italy, at Holz Fesl in Upper Austria. The company from South Tyrol supplies scanner solutions tailored to the needs of businesses of all sizes, from small sawmills to large industries, with individually customized and sophisticated solutions.

Alpiscan developed a scanner system for Huter & Söhne that is designed for BSH (Bohlen-Schalungs-Holz) elements. This system not only detects resin pockets, knots, and other defects but also transfers this information directly to the connected cutting system. It is a new concept that is likely to be of interest to many laminated timber manufacturers.

Increased yield through defect correction. What to do with lower quality materials? This question, like many other planed wood manufacturers, concerned the East Swiss company Gebr. Eisenring, Gossau.

Since 2014, the South Tyrolean company Alpiscan has been offering innovative scanner solutions for large industrial companies as well as for small and medium-sized enterprises. Abdolmajid Ranjbar explained that this technology can be used in all types of businesses.

Scanner technology like at the airport speeds up production. To detect every knot and fiber deviation at 500 m/min, you need powerful technical components and someone who can handle them – but not a huge budget.
