The largest European birch wood processor boosts sawmill efficiency with advanced Zippy Vision BestCut M2 scanner
May 10, 2024. "ZIPPY VISION" applied for support from the European Union to implement the research project "Development of wood and surface scanner technology and architecture". The research project aims to develop innovative wood and surface scanner technologies and optimization algorithms that will enhance the efficiency of wood and furniture manufacturing processes.
Ltd ''ZIPPY VISION” 14.02.2024 signed an agreement No 17.1-1-L-20224/28 with the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia on receiving support for export assistance under the project “SME Innovative Business Development” co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund.
On 5th July 2023, "Zippy Vision" applied for EU funding to implement the research project "Implementation of new system for 3D laser profiler point cloud digital registration and surface properties and defect digital recognition using high-performance computing (GPU)".
The research project plans to develop methods for 3D point acquisition and measurement stabilization, using high-performance computing technologies to recognize surface defects on longitudinally processed parts rapidly.
The research is intended to develop not only the computing algorithms themselves but also a set of technologies necessary for the diagnostics, calibration, and maintenance of such a system.
On 23rd of January 2023, "Zippy Vision"applied for EU funding to implement research project "Research and development of modular, next-generation wood scanner technologies". The research project plans to develop a new generation of modular wood scanner and sawing optimization scanner technologies that would allow for the production of both transverse and longitudinal scanners and optimization systems that would recognize an expanded amount of wood artifacts and defects, improve accuracy, and be able to optimize four-plane cutting strategies. Scanners are designed for both transverse and longitudinal scanning.
