One Eye Sees. Two Eyes Deliver ROI.
The Power of Stereoscopy
Just as human binocular vision allows us to perceive depth, stereoscopic imaging creates a digital 3D reconstruction by combining two slightly different images of the same log. MiCROTEC scanners apply this principle to deliver unmatched precision in log measurement, giving sawmills the ability to optimize production before the first cut is made.
Logeye Stereo - Revolutionary Transverse Stereoscopic Real-Shape Log Scanner
The Logeye Stereo is the only scanner worldwide that provides a complete 360° scan of a log while it rolls into the carriage, headrig, end dogger, or from a transverse to lineal conveyor. Because scanning takes place during transfer into position, the log is fully optimized and ready for sawing immediately.
Truespin - Log Rotation Control and Movement Monitoring
Truespin is a real-time monitoring system for measuring the rotation and uncontrolled movements of logs. It detects and tracks the external texture of the log acquired with digital cameras without the aid of additional marks.
Proven Payback in No Time
With increased volume and yield, MiCROTEC stereoscopic scanning solutions achieve a short payback period.
Customers are reporting significant performance gains with these solutions. Steurer Holz achieved a 5% volume increase and a 1–1.5% yield improvement with the Logeye Stereo, which is also confirmed by Pfeifle Holz who says “The Logeye Stereo alone gives us about 5% more cutting performance.”
Similar results were achieved by Ladenburger with the Truespin, where an increase in yield of about 1.11% has led to a payback period of less than a year.
