  • Efficiency rate per debarker (MBF/hour) per 15-minute interval and per shift,
  • Availability rate and downtime monitoring (upstream, downstream, machine)
    • Sawing icon

    Sawing performance

    Monitoring key performance indicators:
  • Log analysis at the sawing line (number, volume, average diameter),
  • Material yield rate, efficiency (logs/minute) per 15-minute interval and per shift.
  • Availability rate and downtime monitoring (upstream, downstream, machine)
    • Edging icon

    Edging performance dashboard

    Monitoring key performance indicators:
  • Parts analysis (number, volume),
  • Efficiency rate (parts/minute, full blocks) per 15-minute intervals and per shift,
  • Availability rate and downtime monitoring (upstream, downstream, machine)
    • Wood trimming icon

    Trimming performance

    Monitoring key performance indicators:
  • Parts follow-up (number, volume, all slash, returns, trim)

  • Availability rate and downtime monitoring (upstream, downstream, machine)
    • Stacking icon

    Stacking performance

    Monitoring key performance indicators:
  • Distribution of manufactured parts (number, volume, %, grade, length),
  • Efficiency rate (lot, row, part) per 15-minute interval and per shift,
  • Availability rate per stacker and downtime monitoring (upstream, downstream, machine)
    • Downtime causes icon

    Measurement of downtime causes

    Configuring plant levels and departments. Setting up data.
  • Option 1: manually via digital form
  • Option 2: automatically by capture box
  • Option 3: direct synchronization on equipment.
    • Dashboard icon

    Shutdowns and availability dashboard

    Identifying and recording downtime on each piece of equipment for analyzing reasons for downtime
    Humidity icon

    Continuous humidity analysis

    Collecting data from humidity sensor and analyzing drying performance to meet standards and increase the quality of secondary wood-processing products. The data is available in a multi-criteria dashboard (product, drying batch, dryer, mill of origin...).

    Sawing line dashboard monitors machine intensity on the machines, according to batch being run.

    Peak alerts for intervening in time.

    Performance continually improved by monitoring condition of equipment to prevent breakages, repeated shutdowns, overuse, and unnecessary sharpening.

    Controlling performance and quality with data directly from plant equipment. While the data already does exist, it must be manually gathered from each machine without EFFECTO.

    InSite automatically collects data and aggregates it to show performance in real time to highlight any problems of throughput and machine productivity for improved decision-making by prioritizing the steps to be taken for dealing with what’s going too fast and with what’s not going fast enough.
