CONTACT MODULAR 3D SMART SCANNERS FOR BROAD OPTIMIZATION MULTI-POINT PROFILE SCANNERS A Flexible System for Transverse Board Scanning With the Gocator 200 series you can create a modular scanning system that allows you to mix 3D profiles, tracheid detection, and color vision. Run these systems at up to 300 feet per minute in transverse board scanning applications (edging, trimming, planing). DOWNLOAD DATASHEET Gocator 210 Entry-Level Multi-Point Profile Scanner Fast scan rate (2 kHz / 200 FPM / 61 MPM) Generates profiles at 1.1″ / 28 mm spacing Large measurement range (14″ / 356 mm) for scanning thick material Gocator 230 High-End Multi-Point Profile Scanner High-speed scanning (3 kHz / 300 FPM / 91 MPM) Generates profiles at 0.3″ / 8.5 mm spacing Delivers highest resolution for 3D shape Gocator 250 High-End Multi-Point Profile Scanner with Tracheid High-speed scanning (3 kHz / 300 FPM / 91 MPM) Tracheid for grain angle and knot detection (1.5kHz) Generates profiles and tracheid at 0.3″ / 8.5 mm spacing Gocator 205 Bolt-On Color Vision Module High-speed color scanning (3 kHz / 300 FPM / 91 MPM) Supports two external light bars for white LED illumination Delivers 0.2″ x 0.01″ / 0.5 x 0.25 mm color pixels For use in conjunction with Gocator 210, 230 or 250 multi-point scanners DOWNLOAD DATASHEET Get the Modular Edge. Coplanar Scanning FOR THE MOST COMPACT AND COMPLETE DESIGN Multi-point scanner heads detect the rising and falling edge of the board, whereas line profilers may not. Multi-point scanners use less space on the scanner frame (~4-6″) whereas line profilers require more of the conveyor deck (typically 2-3′). High-Speed Profiling ULTIMATE FLEXIBILITY The Gocator 200 series offers onboard processing and multi-sensor networking capability to build high definition 3D data models for material optimization. From early grading of cants in the sawmill to high-speed transverse board scanning applications in the planer mill, there is a suitable model and modular combination to meet your exact needs. Tracheid Measurement FOR GRAIN ANGLE AND KNOT DETECTION Gocator 250 scanners are able to detect and measure tracheid effect. When a laser spot is projected onto healthy tracheid wood cells, laser light is scattered into the cells in the direction of cell growth. If the wood fibre is dead (as in a knot), then the laser light does not scatter. This effect can be measured to identify good wood from defective wood and even determine grain angle. Color Vision FOR SURFACE DEFECT DETECTION Color vision supports the detection and measurement of surface defects. For wood material, surface defects include knots, splits, and rot, and their size and location is key to grade-based recovery optimization. Stable illumination is provided by white LED light bars, which are strobed to maximize efficiency and lifetime. Want to know more about this innovative modular approach?
