SAWING MAKES OR BREAKS THE VALUE OF YOUR PRODUCT MIX 

THE FIRST PLACE TO IMPROVE

Sawing is the first wood transformation process. You understand that it’s where you maximize your productivity and lumber recovery rate. PMP SOLUTIONS understands sawmills: several breakdown lines feeding the trimming line. We also understand the challenges of synchronizing all the lines in the sawmill so they deliver what they’re supposed to, along with poorly functioning equipment and the log diet. We all understand that this translates into lower lumber recovery rates and operational effectiveness.

As such, sawing is the first place to improve. Automation and complexity being at all-time highs, it’s difficult to see if you’re efficient through reporting and volume only. You simply react to issues like more waste or a lower lumber recovery rate. PMP WeSaw™ will help you stabilize every aspect of your sawmill: ensure the right log diet, correct machine performance, and best processing speeds. The result: optimal operational effectiveness.

POWERFUL BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE

We understand that your reporting, although digital, is still managed manually and usually the responsibility of a single person. Producing reports usually involves collecting relevant data from every piece of connected equipment in your sawmill, and then manipulating it in a spreadsheet to get the desired business intelligence (BI). Timely analysis-ready reports from PMP WeSaw will often reveal information making it possible to set targets that can be communicated plant-wide, and used as stepping stones for continuous improvement.

FASTER RESPONSIVENESS

Observation and analysis enable you to set new goals. Use your data-driven goals to configure PMP WeSaw dashboards to enable operators to be more responsive in real time, effectively optimizing your log diet, improving lumber recovery rates, and maximizing operational effectiveness. PMP WeSaw dashboards display the same data appearing in reports—with little to no manipulation.

PMP WeSaw performance dashboard

Sawing & trimming performance dashboards

These dashboards display information about production, downtimes, outputs, and more, at primary breakdown and trimming. Operators can immediately act on undesired variations in production, understanding whether it’s operational or warrants maintenance.

Dimension dashboard

This dashboard ensures sawing performs within desired parameters, giving real-time indications to operators whether dimensions are acceptable before going to trimming. This enables operators to adjust breakdown systems, when necessary.

PMP WePlane quality dashboard

Quality dashboard

This dashboard displays the quality of the lumber currently being produced by the sawmill. Through this dashboard, users can use recirculation and lumber recovery to assess issues with primary breakdown equipment.

Trim distribution dashboard

Reports the real-time trimming distribution, offering insights on equipment calibration and optimizer efficiency.

A MODULAR SOFTWARE SUITE FOR EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR OPERATIONS

Each PMP TeamMate module can be deployed and used independently, but they all work together to increase your mill’s performance.
Helps you know precisely what comes into your sawmill, if it’s optimal for your recipes, if what goes out is off-sized and why, and much more. Finding out before the wood is in the yard can be the difference between a successful run and one full of lower grades.
LEARN MORE
Helps you monitor and analyze planing performance, kick starting effective bidirectional communication between management and operations to drive the best possible results, improve over time, and maximize the value of your products.
LEARN MORE
Drying wood, especially in kilns, is an essential part of wood transformation and, after sawing, key to obtaining quality products. PMP WeDry helps you more effectively control moisture content, optimize kiln operations for wood that's more standard going into planing.
Learn more
PMP WeTrack offers you a clear, concise, and complete understanding of your inventory at all stages of manufacturing, which helps you seize opportunities as they crop up and is crucial to move your wood more profitably.
Learn more
With PMP WeSchedule you can bring it all together, streamlining operations according to current market needs, available supply, up-to-date production, and order backlogs. You’ll then be able to move the right wood at the right time.
