The EA3000 Automated Edger uses optical scanning technology to achieve high precision and low waste edging of boards.
The Optimizing Edger uses optical scanning technology to achieve high precision and low waste edging of boards. The entire edging process is automated. First, each board is scanned. The profile of each board is then analyzed by a computer, which decides on the best product to maximize recovery. Decisions are based on both volume recovery and product value. After scanning, the boards pass through an alignment station and then are sawn. The EA3000 is capable of handling up to 25 boards per minute and 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 Optimizing Edger is a simple, robust and automated solution to your edging needs.
Waste Tailer
Outfeed automatically separates waste from finished material.
Optimization
PC vision based optimization system calculates the best cut size for each board.
Hook-stops
Hook-stops straighten boards and an operator flips boards in the wane up position.
Board Alignment
Clamps and alignment arms center the board and simultaneously top hold down rollers engage.
Blades
Two de-coupled blades can be offset; greatly adding to the value recoverable from the boards.
