Sawmill Optimization650th Optimizer is Delivered...and we're still counting!Early in 2008 CNM's 650th optimizer was delivered to a mill in Oregon. This optimizer is a key component of an optimized log breakdown system. An acquisition launched the company, then Newnes Machine Ltd., into optimization for the solid wood industry. AccuRay Inc. was acquired by Newnes in 1987. In those early days the optimization product line was limited to edgers and trimmers, but rapidly grew to encompass all sawmill processing machine centers. Newnes delivered its first optimizer, a transverse Edger system, in 1988. Over the years this system has seen several upgrades and continues to provide value for the mill. Our philosophy is to accommodate future technologies with modular designs and flexible software that will grow with our customers' needs. This allows our customers to capitalize on the newest technologies without the expensive down time and cost of installing a new optimizer.
Over the past decade optimization has evolved to the planermill and beyond. Newnes pioneered planermill optimization with the release of its X-Ray Lumber Gauge in 1993, and its first Transverse High Grader was installed in 1995. In 1997 the company delivered its first AddVantage Chop Saw Optimizer, advancing optimization technology into the value added sector. In January 2002 the first Linear High Grader was delivered. Current development is delivering automated grading for the planermill and visual defect scanning (BioScan™) technology for the sawmill. Today Coe Newnes McGehee offers the world’s most comprehensive suite of optimizers for the solid wood industry.
