“You’re on the verge of Making the Leap and optimising the productivity of your sawmill with Finnos, but you’re wondering: What happens next? How exactly are your new systems going to be installed and how long do you have to wait?” – Finnos.
This extremely helpful post from Finnos will take you a deep dive into some of the unsolved and burning questions and more, so read on to explore the Finnos installation details.
From the ground up
Much like a tree growing from the ground up, Finnos begins by tailoring each installation to the unique needs of every sawmill. Since no two sawmills are the same, Finnos’ Project Management team takes the lead by gathering detailed information about your sawmill’s current systems. They laser scan the installation site and ask key questions, such as how logs are sorted, to ensure a customised approach. The more data they collect, the better they can prepare for the next steps.
Installation and commissioning
The installation and commissioning of a log scanner takes only 4-6 days. But before the scanner is even brought into place, some groundwork has to be laid. This includes mechanical and electrical work including installations, which are done by either your staff or their installers, depending on someone’s particular preferences. If someone chooses to do the work yourself, they will send supervisors, or one can get a turnkey solution, so that anybody get nothing short of a full service. All in all, the installation and commissioning process takes about a work-week to complete, so they will be out of your hair in no time.
Process:
- Pre-engineering
- Kick-off
- Preparations
- Preparation for installation
- Installation and start up
- Happily ever after
- Onboarding and support
Finnos has asked their customer, Versowood Oy for comment of the commissioning phase, and Jani Lehtinen, their production planner, shared his thoughts: “Finnos had prepared the scanner’s software beforehand, so not a lot had to be done, and they could focus on training our staff.”
As Jani said, the commissioning process is straightforward so we can indeed focus on training your operators. Finnos’s training includes for example operational training, radiation safety training, maintenance training. The training is done before and during commissioning so that when the systems are back in business, you can fire up the engines right away. And go to the bank laughing, as Finnos say.
