Vision King – Wood & Wood Pulp

Technology Description

The main objective is to identify contaminants and quality restrictions on the surface of the wood, such as:

Fungi

Fungus on the wood surface

Impurities

Impurity in the wood pulp

Foreign Materials

Foreign material in the wood pulp

Stones

Stone found in the wood pulp

The computer vision applied to the inspection of wood or cellulose pulp has become an essential solution to ensure the lifespan of the equipment that processes the raw material and also the quality in manufacturing processes of pallets, boxes, furniture, and pulp for paper. Vision King uses cameras and image processing algorithms to detect defects, irregularities, contaminants, and specific characteristics of the wood surface that are difficult to identify with the naked eye.
