The Microwave Drying System
Short term, MicroDri will focus on developing a modular in-line drying system that initially will dry a subset of the sawmill's total output. But by adding and joining several such modular subsets, we will also be able to offer microwave drying systems that can process the full output of the sawmill.
The core technology of the MicroDri system is that it dries one piece of lumber at a time based on the characteristics, e.g., moisture content, defects, etc., of each board and adapts the microwave energy emission for each piece of lumber passing through the system. This is done in an uninterrupted in-line process that connects the green and dry mill so material flow of the mill can be optimized, tied up capital can be minimized, and quality gains can be realized.
