• Investigation of NDE technologies for drying quality segregation to aim for optimal kiln schedules to reduce drying degrade and accelerate kiln throughput in the hardwood sawmilling industry

  Hardwood logs and green boards often show large variations in the rate at which they dry, which causes problems for timber processors. If fast or slow drying boards could be identified they co... Read More

• Locating resin defects in slash pine billets using microwave imaging - A laboratory scale trial

  This study investigated the potential of microwave imaging and acoustic tomography to detect the presence and location of resin shakes and/or resin streaks in Slash pine billets. Two approach... Read More

• NIR Assessment of MUF Resin Quality for Composite Panel Production

  Traditionally it takes many hours before the results from monitoring MUF (melamine urea formaldehyde) resins used in MDF manufacturing plants are available to production engineers. If the qual... Read More

• Quality Control of H2F Treated Timber via NIR Spectroscopy

  The Australian building industry relies on pine timbers for house framing and construction, and for regions where termites or borers might be active timbers treated with a pyrethroid preservat... Read More

• Standing tree measurement of acoustic velocity as a predictor of kraft pulp yield in E. nitens across 2 sites

  This report was designed to validate or discard the use of standing tree and/or log acoustics as a tool for predicting Kraft pulp yield (KPY). As a result Acoustic velocity in both standing a... Read More
