Innovation defines us. As North America’s premier provider of specialty chains and conveyors, Connexus Industries strives to connect our clients to the dynamic solutions they need - pairing stainless steel construction with ISO9001:2008 standards. We seek to shape the lumber market.

We’re not alone. Instead Microtec - international logging manufacturer - is now pushing the boundaries of efficiency, offering mills the Logeye volume scanner.



According to 'Wood Business', Microtec recently revealed its Logeye volume scanner. This device (which is the first of its kind in North America) delivers precision, utilizing a laser interferometry platform to assess the condition, density, and volume of each log. Multiple sensors blend x-ray and color frequencies, penetrating the bark to monitor overall grading.

As an industry leader in scanning and hugh speed infeed chains, we know this will ensure more efficient operations - allowing mills to quickly identify potential defects, as well as ensure proper sorting. This will improve the quality of each log and generate stronger sales.

In an interview with 'Wood Business', Micotec’s Chief Technology Officer Norvin Laudon said: “Our first scanner was certified in Germany in 2005 and we’ve installed well over 100 government certified log scaling solutions in Europe, Russia, and South America since then. We are proud to be at the forefront of a new era of log measurement in North America.” Progress propels the Logeye system, and Connexus Industries recognizes the value this option brings. It will provide increased productions to Canada and the United States - and we’re ready to accommodate every company.
