Next generation of analyzers with advanced AI-based features

Data capturing is the productivity and quality driver in modern veneer, plywood, and LVL production. Analyzers using machine vision, moisture detection, and strength analysis, combined with digital tools, are employed to grade veneer and panels, optimizing the production process.

Based on data, analyzers sort veneer and other wood products into different grades according to industry standards and customer requirements. This data also enables process optimization, ensuring the most profitable production of your end products. Analyzers offer various valuable features to maximize the utilization rate of veneer, enhance face veneer yield, improve overall recovery, and optimize veneer quality.

Analyzers are at the heart of data-driven production. These intelligent systems autonomously make the right decisions at the right time. To maintain its position as a market and technology leader, Raute is continuously advancing its digitalization and automation capabilities. In the Industry X project, Raute is focused on developing the next generation of analyzers with advanced AI-based features.
