Cameron Automation Skew Rip System

CAMERON AUTOMATION | SKEW RIP SYSTEM

Designed for Small and Medium Shops looking for High Efficiency and Throughput

The Skew Rip System from Cameron Automation is a highly efficient, inexpensive, full featured, rip optimization system designed to fit any 12″ wide gang rip saw and specifically developed for the custom shop. The unique feature of The Skew is the “skewing fence”. It has the ability to twist and feed the board into the saw to get the best yield. The Skew also has all the features of the high-end optimization systems like: lumber tallying, pack reporting, bundle reporting, yield calculations, simulations, and much more. The greatest benefit of The Skew is the Return on Investment, which can be well under 1 year. Cameron Automation has pushed the envelope once again to simplify sophisticated equipment and bring it to the small shop to increase yield and save labor. The Skew Rip System is the answer for Rip Optimization in a custom shop. It will quickly transform any small hand-fed gang saw into a full and complete rip optimization system. Cameron has further refined their rip software to make it easy and affordable for the small shop while still offering the same features as their bigger systems.

HOW IT WORKS

Cameron Automation has pushed the envelope once again to simplify sophisticated equipment and bring it to the small shop to increase yield and save labor.

How it Works:

A Board is placed on the Infeed Section
The system measures the width, length, and shape of the board using sensors placed at 1’ increments
With our unique “Skewing Fence”, the machine adjusts the angle and position of each board to achieve the highest possible yield
The laser lights move with the saw blades to project the rip solution on the board
The operator has several options available to improve the final rip solution. Once that is determined, the board is processed into the saw and the next board is measured
The Cameron Software Actively Tallies all Production, constantly updating a number of reports that can be saved.
