Primary Breakdown Optimizer

Newnes-McGehee's (NM) primary breakdown optimizer is a key component of our double length infeed and sharp chain systems. Four scan heads using a dual laser plane configuration minimize blind spots resulting from knots and chain flights. Log data is processed for optimum recovery at the chipping heads and band or circular saws producing cants and flitches that will give the highest volume or value at downstream gangs and edgers.

The user interface displays 3-D solution graphics in real-time showing curved cant and sideboard solutions. Report functions are built in with complete log data and solution information. A production simulator for testing different configurations on real log data can be included.
