PRODUCING AN OPTIMAL
AND CONSISTENT
VOLUME OF WOOD

Diagnosis of our blades

Out Team of Regional Cutting Tool Specialists have decades of experience helping sawmills address issues related to saw blade design, addressing changes in log diet, saw blade issues impacting cutting performance, productivity, and lumber quality.

Our Team is available to come on-site to your mill to help you and your team improve your mills results.

A 3-STEP DIAGNOSIS

We precisely validate your performance settings and then establish optimally tailored grinding procedures. Everything is examined in detail. The analysis is based on rational markers that provide unequivocal results.

STEP 1
Performance Settings

  1. Target production volume and equipment capacity
  2. Saw blade design and specifications
  3. Driving force available with existing equipment
  4. Target speed for wood processing operations
  5. Existing saw change schedule

STEP 2
Evaluation of Actual Procedures

  1. Detailed review of current grinding process (Edge regression study)
  2. Assessment of equipment and its use
  3. Identification of strengths and weaknesses in the filing room
  4. Analysis of grinders accuracy
  5. Assessment of saw management between changes
  6. Verification of guide and lubrication program accuracy

STEP 3
Optimal Filing Procedures

  1. Identification of new filing procedures adapted to production targets
  2. Improved quality control in managing the cutting tool environment
  3. Establishment of best practices for regenerating blade sharpness
  4. Recommended tools for improving saw maintenance
  5. Training and development plan for filers
