VAB Solutions, division of Timber Automation, LLC products

VAB Solutions has introduced a cutting-edge Species Separator system for sawmills, which leverages Artificial Intelligence to identify and sort various wood species with high accuracy. The system uses a combination of a unique vision and light system along with algorithms and statistical models that enable it to function without explicit instructions, relying instead on iterative techniques. This eliminates the use of chemical products, ensures the safety of staff, and reduces operating costs by eliminating consumables. Additionally, VAB's optimizer has proven to significantly enhance the precision and throughput of lumber grading, reducing operator errors and improving upper grade percentages by 10-15%. The system's compact design, minimal components, and quick installation process minimize operational disruptions and result in a rapid return on investment. Satisfied customers have reported significant improvements in ROI and operational efficiency, with options to upgrade with modules like tracheid and Air Board Tracker for added functionalities.
