The Automated Edger uses optical scanning technology to achieve high precision and low waste edging of boards. The entire edging process is automated with each board being positioned and then scanned. The profile of each board is analyzed by a computer, which decides on the best product to maximize recovery. Decisions are based on both volume recovery and product value.
The V-AE is capable of handling up to 12 boards per minute at 6.7m or 15 boards per minute at 3.4m. It is the ideal machine to edge boards coming from the Resaw. Electric servo sizing system achieves any width of cut without complication.
Parallel PLC / computer control systems allow the machine to be switched over to manual mode with a single button. Online support allows our technicians to dial into your machine to troubleshoot it remotely.
Overall, the Automated Edger is a simple, robust and automated solution to your edging needs.
