SawControl, a convenient tool for monitoring sawmill equipment.
New developments. Among the most relevant novelties is RuScan lumber quality and geometrical parameters scanner with trimming optimization function. This system is designed for lumber sorting lines operating at speeds from 60 to 180 boards per minute.
The "SawControl" software module is an addition to the sawmill automated control system and provides the enterprise's technologist and mechanic with a convenient tool for monitoring the operation of key equipment components.
Main functions of the program:
1. Saw blades, cutter heads, debarker rotors, and knives on these units life monitoring. Tracking operating time, repairs (indicating the responsible person), and maintenance planning.
2. A list of unit and component maintenance tasks, sorted by various parameters, and storing installation/repair history.
3. Convenient hints and recommendations: assisting the operator in assembling the sawing patterns, and maintenance personnel - in setting up the equipment.
4. Rapidly monitor the dimensions of lumber after cutting using a Bluetooth caliper: measurements are automatically saved and processed in the program.
Advantages of using the "SawControl" module:
operates as a web service: local access for all employees with customizable access rights,
no hardware modifications are required; the program can be configured for any sawing line,
suitable not only for sawmills, but also for edgers and trimmers,
minimizes the human factor in equipment operation.
