Seneca Saw Mill: Eugene, OR

Our first GradeScan is running at Seneca Sawmill's planer mill in Eugene, Oregon. It was our primary test site and has seen three different versions of GradeScan installed through the development process. The final version (shown below) is grading green Dimension Douglas-Fir ranging from 2x4s to 2x14s up to 28 feet long.

In each GradeScan installation, the minimum Lucidyne equipment includes the scanner itself, an outfeed roll set, computer system, and Warp Bridge. Lucidyne utilizes off-the-shelf hardware wherever possible to keep the use of special components to a minimum. However, the resolution, speed, and integration requirements of a successful automated grading application require that Lucidyne's imaging scientists and engineers design the company's own sensors. So far there are more than 400 Lucidyne-built cameras in production operation in our scanners.
