Debarking Control
Challenge
To determine the diameter of a log before it enters a debarking machine
Solution
As a log moves toward the debarker, an EZ‑ARRAY receiver determines the total number of beams that are blocked. It sends an analog signal to the debarking station logic controller, which determines the diameter of the log and adjusts the log grippers and debarking blades to the log’s size.
Accurately determining the log's size provides process stability and prevents damage to the debarking machine.
