Sequence of Operations

1 - A grader will mark each board with a special crayon to identify the defects in the board.

2 - The board is then transferred through the measuring station where the defects of the board and the relative positions of the defects is collected by the measuring computer.

3 - This information is sent to the optimizing computer which uses it in combination with the data that is programmed by the operator about the required parts. The optimizing computer then analyzes every possible solution and selects best possible way to cut the wood.

4 - The cutting solution is then transferred to the saw computer which controls the crosscut saw in a way that acomplishes the optimum cutiing list.

5 - All of the waste pieces are ejected at the waste gate which can be outfitted with a waste conveyor to remove to a scrap been. (scrap conveyor is not included)

6 - The useable cut lengths are transported onto the sort line conveyor where the sorting computer ejects them to their proper stations.
