Predictive Maintenance as Part of Sawmill Optimization
Maintaining the sawline is not just about mechanical upkeep, but also about continuously ensuring measurement accuracy. Predictive maintenance helps keep production smooth and yield high.

The new algorithmic application developed by Lisker can identify logs with up to 95% accuracy on the sawmill line, bringing transparency, cost benefits, and certainty to the process for sawmills.
Sawmill industry systems need to stay up to date, adapt to changes, and continue working even when the technology around them changes. Software is never finished – but it still needs to last for decades.
CTO Panu Toukola explains how practical sawmill conditions, the long lifecycle of software, and machine vision form the basis for smart measurement and optimisation solutions.
“When discussing millions of euros in additional revenue from just more precise rotation, sawmills cannot afford to overlook this.”
