Random Sampling Process for Improving Lumber Cut-Up Recovery

A patented process was developed for a very cost-effective and reliable method of improving lumber cut-up recovery. It normally includes the following steps: 1) treating, with a normally invisible indicator, a portion of the lumber to be cut; 2) recording the physical properties of the portion of lumber; 3) commingling the treated, recorded portion with the remainder of the lumber; 4) performing cutting operations on the lumber; 5) imposing conditions on the lumber that will render the indicator visible on the treated portion; and 6) comparing the cut pieces of the treated, recorded portion with the precut record to determine the efficiency of the cutting operations. Further information and application equipment is available through the author.
