Embodiment 1
[0080] Example 1: 15 logs of mixed species broad-leaved wood from a timber factory in Madison, Wisconsin, U.S.
[0081] The log internal quality evaluation system of the present invention is mainly aimed at hardwood logs.
[0082] Hardwood log quality varies widely between species, collection locations, and even locations within the same tree. Log rot, holes, knots, trauma and other growth defects reduce the value of the lumber and its products by reducing not only its strength but also its visual quality; the location, type and size of these defects determine the potential grade and value of the lumber . Studies have shown that if the specific information of these internal defects can be effectively used in the sawing process, its value can be increased by 10%-21%. Early detection of internal defects in hardwood logs can thus bring significant benefits to the timber industry in terms of optimal utilization of the resource.
[0083] To test the effectiveness of the system o...
Embodiment 2
[0123] Example 2: 21 boxwood trees (Liriodendron tulipifera) from the MeadWestVaco Forest in the Central Appalachian Mountains of West Virginia, USA.
[0124] Randomly select 15 boxwood trees and cut them down. Each tree was sawn into 3-5 commercial length logs for a total of 52 logs. Observation found that the quality grades of these logs were quite different. Some logs had obvious signs of decay after sawing, some logs had deep external damage, and there were also some high-quality logs. The test experiment was one month after felling, at the beginning of March. The log samples had a moisture content of 45-60%, all above the fiber saturation point (30%).
[0125] In order to obtain the basic physical parameters of the logs, a high-resolution 3D laser scan of the logs was first performed. Scanning is carried out along the length of the log, with a sampling step of 1.59mm. According to the difference in the circumference of the log, the number of pixels per week is 250-450 ...
