Better yield for the sawline

We are a Finnish Automation Company Founded in 1987

Lisker is an automation company founded in 1987, specializing in measurement and optimization systems for sawmills. Our extensive product portfolio covers scanners from sawmill feeding and log measurement to dry lumber grading.

With raw material costs being the most significant expense for sawmills, we specialize in systems that improve sawmill yield and profitability. Some products have a payback period of just a few months! We also conduct ‘before and after’ tests to concretely demonstrate the benefits achieved for the customer.

Lisker Oy has delivered over 350 measurement and optimization systems to 16 countries for various sawlines. Our measurement and optimization programs are 100% our own production, allowing them to scale according to customer needs.

Optimization Philosophy

Wood is an organic material whose quality is influenced by its growth environment, soil, weather conditions, biological environment, initial processing during harvesting, and many other factors. Therefore, each piece processed at the sawmill is unique.

The goal of sawmills is to utilize every purchased cubic meter of logs as efficiently as possible and with the highest possible yield. Lisker’s measurement and optimization systems recognize the properties of the wood and make decisions that can increase the sawmill’s yield.
