Optimally Turned

Seven turned reasons for choosing TiMBERTURN by MiCROTEC:

Guarantees optimal log insertion and rotation
Considers curve, ovality and predetermined cutting diagrams
Marks the log and tracks the headrig’s infeed
Works with lengthwise and sideways conveyors
Provides setpoints for automatic or manual insertion
Clearly describes data and statistics 7. Easy to use and install in existing plants

TiMBERTURN by MiCROTEC is an intelligent system for optimal log turning due to an optical position recognition device. The system installed prior to TiMBERTURN is a 3D log measuring device like DiSHAPE, which records and shows an image of the exact log profile.

TiMBERTURN takes the log after it has been measured, together with all calculated log data that is needed to position the log in the optimal manner for sawing. Depending on the curve, ovality or the specified cutting diagram, TiMBERTURN controls the turning rollers in order to bring the log into the optimal position.
