Grade, trim and sort mark recognition for green & dry sorter and planer mills

Installed on the trimming/sorting line Grade Scanner reads the manual mark assigned by the grader, correlates the corresponding quality or command and sends this information on to the trimming or the sorting system. Grade Scanner quickly recognizes customized grade and sort marks and speeds up your production since no more manual data entry is required.

Grade Scanner may be easily combined with sorting systems such as Microtec’s Variosort Lumber Sorter, trimmer systems such as Optiedge Edger Optimizer or similar devices.

«Grade Scanner is a very useful tool for those mills who do not dispose of a quality scanner, but where operators do the lumber grading. It speeds up the production or sorting process since no more manual data entry is needed. Depending on the production scope, Grade Scanner may be easily adjusted to customer’s needs.»
