The innovative KilnScout-Europe is a wireless in-kiln moisture meter system, developed for European market, to maximize output for continuous and batch lumber dry kilns. Using capacitive measurement technology, KilnScout-Europe allows your operation to control the drying process from direct moisture content input. This eliminates the costly feedback loop from the planer mill and unreliable time-based drying schedules. The result is improved grade recovery, increased throughput and a significant impact on your bottom line.
Optimize lumber quality and throughput
Monitors direct wood moisture content to accurately reach an MC target. Less risk for over-drying defects. Production results show 5%-10% increased throughput. These factors together with less energy consumption impact your bottom line.
Large sample size per sensor
Each sensor covers ∼1 meter³ of wood. Suitable for batch and continuous kilns.
Accuracy within 1%
The accuracy in terms of standard deviation is typically better than 1% per unit. No need to enter the kiln to monitor sample boards.
Full PLC integration and push-mail
Easily integrated with common PLC systems, and sends customized email or text alerts to forklifts and kiln operators on moisture, temperature and shutdown info.
Data Access
Reporting and feedback
Monitor, print and save current and historic data in various formats.
