ProfiCura Dim – Transversal and lineal process

The ProfiCura Dim sensor is a standalone device that simultaneously measures the cup, wane and width of wooden boards. According to defined rules regarding wane and cup, that are set in the sensor, a digital control signal is generated to control a turning device. Typical applications are turners before a planer and turners in the pallet industry. The basic measurement is done by the LIMAB ProfiCura 2D sensor and based on the triangulation measurement principle. The main advantage by using a 2D measurement is that the board profile is fully scanned. Movements of the board will not have any influence on the measured board profile, wich will generate more secure measurements and more stable turner signals as compared to older systems based on 1D measurement technique. The ProfiCura Dim can be used for both longitudinal and transversal saw lines.
