BlockPLUS is the most accurate lathe charger scanner in the industry. Using a new generation of laser technology, BlockPLUS accurately scans every surface detail to fractions of an inch. This detailed profile is then used by the lathe system to reduce peeling cycle time and increase recovery.
Latest scanning technology yields more results
The second generation BlockPLUS scanning and optimization system offers advanced functionality beyond solving for the largest cylinder within a block envelope, proven to significantly increase recovery. Some of these include;
- Highest-density scanning of entire block surface
- Recess filtering and the ability to differentiate salvageable veneer from roundup trash
- Ability to set knife entry point to yield the maximum amount of strip
- Precision timing of clipping trashgate to yield first salvageable from each block
