The production line of your dreams
How do you currently produce your wood flooring?
For over a hundred years, flooring has been made the same old way, using the same old side matcher that makes the top and bottom face, tongue, and groove—all on the same machine.
Sure, it is a tried-and-true way of producing wood floor boards. But the flaws are numerous.
First, this process relies solely on the decisions made by the operator. While an expert in the field, operators must factor in a huge amount of data, including grading rules, to make split-second decisions during the manufacturing process. Quality issues are not just likely—they are likely to be the norm. Decisions are also often made on rough material, compromising the accuracy of the cut and, again, overall product quality. Finally, the more manual interventions you have, the more your operators’ security can be jeopardized.
OSI Wood Machinerie has set out to improve the process.
With SmartSwitch.
SmartSwitch is a revolutionary and proven layout approach that optimizes your production layout, greatly increasing your production efficiency, improving product quality, and generating the most yield possible. It is not a machine per se, but rather an entirely new and intelligent flooring manufacturing process.
The patented SmartSwitch concept enables the end-to-end analysis and management of your wood material as it passes down your production line, by eliminating time- and money-consuming human error. It is a high-performance process that allows you to generate more yield than more archaic processes.
Other benefits include: reduced number of operators, increased operator security, improved flexibility of your production line, and improved value and dimensional tolerance of each final product.
