1 p#mizing Your Opera#ons with Profiling Systems By David Gourde Vice President Capital Sales for the Northeastern region BID Group of Companies

2 genda BID Group Exper#se with Profiling Systems Benefits of Profiling Profiling Applica#ons Case Studies Conclusion

3 ur Exper/se with Profiling Systems ID Group - 20 years of experience brands of profiling machines ore than 100 systems installed Primary Breakdown - Log Profilers Secondary Breakdown - Cant Profilers DDM Single Pass Profiling System

4 enefits of Profiling Op/mizing the Sawmill Increased Produc3on Increased Speed of Primary Breakdown Sideboard Sawing DOC without Profiling = 6 DOC with Profiling = 4 Reduced Sideboards to the Edger Reduced Prime Sort and Reman Return to Edger 6 4

5 enefits of Profiling Op/mizing the Sawmill Improved Recovery Value Decision on Sideboards More Accurate Edging of Flitches Reduced Down3me Efficient Board Travel Reduced Edger Speeds

6 e Studies wmill case study #1, Quebec wmill case study #2, North Carolina

7 awmill case study #1, QC New Sawline Installed in 2011 Log supply: So\wood Hardwood Primary breakdown: Canter Profiler Twin Bandmill Secondary breakdown: TBL c/w Profiling

8 awmill case study #1, QC Profiling modules are also being used for hardwood Maximum twin speed in Hardwood is 225 \/min Average speed performance increase is 21.2% Twin Only Twin AND Profiliers Speed Increase % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % % Average 21.2%

9 awmill case study #2, NC ontext: Exis#ng sawline, addi#on of profiling modules Specie: Southern Yellow Pine Products: Dimension Decking Op#miza#on: geometrical and vision For logs with sideboards: Average sawing speed when it s only the twin: \/min Average sawing speed when it s the twin AND the profilers: \/min Average speed increase: 22.9%

10 ideboard Reduc/on Secondary Breakdown educes handling = roduc#on costs of up to 25/fM proves separa#on a#on efficiency lows down edger Allows a higher edging quality

11 ine / Fir Mill - California Canter/Profiler Module installed on exis#ng Curve Sawing Gang in 2015 Upgraded Op#miza#on and PLC at the same #me Gang and Scanner loca#on remained the same Recovery increase of almost 3%

12 awmill case study #2, NC or a 2,000 logs simula#on Without profilers: 2718 boards are going to the edger With profilers: 1282 boards have been profiled 1436 boards went to the edger ressure reduc#on on edger: 47.2% less boards to the edger

13 Primary Breakdown Profiling Log Scanning

14 ampton Affiliates Babine Division Primary breakdown: OLI c/w Log Rota#on, Canter, Sideboard Profiler and Quad Arbor Sawbox Secondary breakdown: TBL with Profiling Scanning: Grey Scale Log Scanner Vision End Scanner Vison Cant Scanner

15 Primary Breakdown Profiling Cant Scanning Cant Face Scanner: Visual and geometrical defect detec#on and op#miza#on for cants

16 rimary Breakdown Profiling Cant Scanning Sawing module Profilers Canters Rolls Rolls Cant Scanner

17 ampton Affiliates Babine Division Mul#ple Scanning allows for beler value cant and sideboard solu#ons increasing recovery Vision scanners on the face of the cant and sideboard profiling allows for best solu#on based on defect increasing recovery and limi#ng the material sent to the Edger Increased up#me and reduces pressure on Edger from broken boards

18 rofiling Op/mizes your Sawmill Increased sawing speeds, more efficient board transfer for beler produc#vity. Relieves edgers by elimina#ng pieces going around in circles for reprocessing No more bolleneck, less flitches, less down#me For a new sawing line: eliminates the need for acquiring an edger Increases recovery Slower edging speed allows more posi#oning accuracy Beler sideboard decisions Reliable & High-performance Systems Lowers opera#ng costs and maintenance Enhanced safety: limited human interven#on This modifica,on alon to a sawing line can completely change a mi produc,on and thus se8 several bo8leneck and reprocessing issues - Ron McGehe
