Approaches on Primary Log Breakdown Process
Öz
Abstract
Aim of study: Innovations of “primary breakdown process” which is the first step of log sawing process were evaluated with their reasons and results.
Area of study: Primary log breakdown process were investigated with products of domestic and foreign log sawing machine manufacturers, scientific studies and operations at especially foreign sawmills.
Material and Methods: Log quality assessment techniques, sawing techniques and sawing machines were compared with conventional methods.
Main results: Losses during the log sawing can be minimized with small but effective innovations. However, domestic sawmills which are foreign-dependent on especially raw material (log) should consider their financial situations while taking an investment decision.
Research highlights: Domestic sawmills can try “non-destructive evaluation techniques” for required evaluations while before, during and after the primary breakdown process.
