SOLID SCAN Sense S

In the S Version of the SOLID SCAN Sense, WEINIG is renewing its engagement in the area of high-performance scanners for sorting and grading. The SOLID SCAN Sense S covers all sorting applications. Like the C and R versions, the system allows additional information such as shape, moisture, etc. to be included. The repeatable accuracy of the optimization also increases sorting precision. Fluctuations in quality caused by human error are a thing of the past.

Simple optimization is the key to efficient production. The high-performance optimization software allows a variety of qualities and zones to be created and combined into multiple end products. The products and qualities are stored in a database and can be selected at any time via drag and drop. The logical user interface of the scanner simplifies settings in a visual way providing simple operation for all.

With its various sensor options, the scanner can be adapted to customer requirements, guaranteeing ideal results every time. Whether hardwood or softwood, color sorting or sorting for furniture panels, profiled or rough mill grading, with the new SOLID SCAN Sense S you are equipped for the future.

The WEINIG SOLID SCAN Sense S provides

Maximum productivity thanks to automated defect detection and sorting
Increased recovery since the detection accuracy of the scanner is far superior to manual sorting
Reduced labor costs, since labor-intensive manual sorting of the boards is eliminated
More flexible production since many different qualities and products can be produced at the same time
Ability to control the quality of end products according to individual customers, etc.
Increased quality of end products

Sorting explained simply

Step 1: LuxscanLine scanners are based upon various sensors, such as laser and color cameras or X-ray*. Your WEINIG expert will define the right sensors and the best combination of these, harmonized with wood types, surface properties and customer requirements. Our objective is to achieve the best possible quality of information for the required application.

Step 2: Image processing is handled by the highly sophisticated OptiCore software. This detects and identifies defects as well as color deviations on the board. The ideally adapted sensor data ensures optimal data processing and defect detection.

Step 3: Optimization via the high-performance OptiCore software calculates the best solution during sorting. In doing so, it takes into account the various customer requests and requirements. Based upon the precise board data calculated during image processing, the board is sorted in accordance with customer requirements. This allows a virtually unlimited number of qualities and products to be defined. Thus, even complex products can be ideally sorted. This allows the creation of almost any type of end product.

The sensors: The key to success

All sensors are ideally protected by a dust-proof housing. Our laser cameras are installed in every system as standard sensors. With the fastest speed available on the market, these guarantee a high resolution and optimal results. Performance is continually improved via constant evolution of this industrial sensor system. This technology detects defects such as branches, pith, cracks, etc. A sophisticated laser system also reliably detects 3D surface defects, such as holes and rough edges of the wood.

In addition, color cameras improve the scanner's detection as standard. Higher resolutions, both in the longitudinal and transverse direction, detect color defects as well as cracks and insect holes more reliably than ever before. Different versions of the color camera ensure the ideal scanner performance for every application.

OptiLink: Ideal optimization via connected processes.

Using complex production processes has always been a difficult task. Linking various applications and production lines complicates the flow of information. OptiLink was developed to optimize production management by centralizing the information. With a single access point to all information, just-in-time production is no longer a complex challenge. OptiLink decreases operator errors and reduces the inventory of semi-finished goods. A further benefit is the quick and simple data management with regard to ERP systems. This even allows production of single-item batches thanks to sophisticated statistical functions. Although OptiLink was originally developed purely for linking cross-cut scanners and rip scanners, it is now possible to connect many other cutting-related machines.

Fiber analysis: Maximum cutting accuracy

An essential component of maximizing recovery and increasing value is a precise cutting position, particularly with finger jointed products. The "dual scatter" system comprising of a line laser and a dot laser enables this precision.

ACM angled crack detection: Optimize your crack detection

Detecting angled, non-vertical cracks has always been subject to limitations owing to the positioning of the standard 3D lasers. Thanks to the use of 4 additional, specially positioned lasers, the Angle Cracks Module (ACM) is able to provide further information.

X-ray sensor: Enhanced defect detection

X-ray systems are not only useful for rough-sawn or dirty surfaces, but also for wood species with wide color variations. Their primary benefit is that certain internal defects are detected from variations in their density.

Automatic camera positioning and processing of random widths

The automatic camera positioning moves all cameras into the ideal position, thus guaranteeing optimal resolution and picture quality. It also reduces operator error, thus keeping production losses to a minimum.

ShapeScan: Reliable detection of bend, bow and twist

The ShapeScan is the ideal option when it comes to detecting particular shape changes as a defect. Cup measurement can also be added as an option. The ShapeScan T can calculate the shape using sensors above the cross conveyor.

Front-end scanner: Quality control the easy way

The front-end scanner is installed behind a cross-cut saw. It scans the cut parts from both ends. This allows internal defects such as pith to be detected using their contrast. This information is used to regrade products for finger jointing or specific profiles and the changing of these to a new kicker.

Marking station: Marking of cuts and grades

A marking station is the ideal solution for connecting a scanner to one or more existing cross-cut saws while avoiding complex mechanization or where direct data connection is not possible. Cuts, qualities and best face are printed on each board allowing simple sorting after cutting.
