TruckSmart is an automatic wood truck measurement device. The device consists of frame where truck drives through and measurement arm which scans back of the wood truck.
The device carries out the analysis primarily using methods of machine vision, which are supported by other sensors and mechanical solutions. A single measurement of the truck allows the
determination of:

Teknosavo’s Truck Measurement Station enables the measurement of volume, quality and total amount of wood in a stack directly from the truck. Stationed near the gate, the Truck Measurement Station contains laser scanners, connected to analysis software. The station measures 100 % of the incoming raw material.
With the quality, size and volume information of the logs, the debarking process can be optimized to ensure high quality and wood cleanliness.
Data resulting from the analysis can be utilized, for example:
Determining whether logs are brought from the forest too early to the mill but are expected to grow longer in forest. If the log diameter is too small the mill is not getting enough fiber in
the production and mill capacity decrease Provides better wood quality monitoring when e.g. rot could be seen in the end image of the log.
Systematical measurement procedure detects fluctuations in the quality of the raw material without operator’s visual inspection and then decrease manual work.
Makes it possible to guide raw material better to wood area. E.g. store different wood species at own areas, store bigger diameter logs at own area etc.
