ANTI-STAIN PROTECTION

ANTI-STAIN PROTECTION THAT’S A CUT ABOVE Protect the beauty and value of wood with advanced stain control solutions from Buckman Discoloration is a leading cause of downgrading in the wood industry. Unfortunately, less than optimal cutting and drying schedules and the day-to-day practical challenges in log and lumber management can make it worse. That’s why Buckman offers effective, proven stain-control chemistries that fight microbiological staining. With a complete Buckman stain-prevention program in place, the full value of your wood will be easy to see—at the mill, in the lumberyard, and on your bottom line.

MARS HILL JUNE 2014_Layout 1 5/19/14 2:24 PM Page 1 WOODLAND, WA– USNR has introduced the Atlas Density Grader, which the company says revolutionizes the way lumber is sorted for drying. A company statement said the new system reduces energy consumption and drying time while increasing grade yield, length yield, and planer throughput. It’s a simple and powerful system that captures board density data, which can be used to create more intelligent drying recipes that optimize the process. The Atlas Density Grader enables mills to apply advanced sorting strategies for drying segregated densities rather than mixed densities, which results in fewer defects from over-drying and less wets from the kilns. Five systems are now operating in North America. Users have experienced a dramatic ROI improvement from the resulting grade uplifts, increased kiln throughput, increased planer uptime, and reduced trim loss, USNR says. USNR is among the world’s largest, most comprehensive suppliers of equipment and technologies for the wood processing industry. Details are available at www.usnr.com.
