Valmatics 4.0

Intuitive user interface The user interface is intuitive and based on the latest lumber drying technology. With the aid of user-friendly settings and information developed from the data, the operator can easily optimize the drying process on the basis of selected parameters. Valmatics 4.0 provides fast, simple troubleshooting with the presentation of trends, and can be connected to external systems such as a business system. Future-proof The new control system is suitable for the latest PLC technology, enabling operators to meet their customers' increased expectations and future quality requirements. Property-centered control Valmatics 4.0 has an improved and simplified propertycentered control and is the only control system on the market that enables optimization based simultaneously on capacity, quality and energy consumption. Intelligent control system for the new industry Valmatics 4.0 is the world’s leading control system. It’s the only control system on the market that combines simulator technology with adaptive control, and calculates the optimal drying process, regardless of kiln model. The integrated simulator suits all kiln models and calculates the optimal drying process, making a fully autonomous lumber drying process possible. Valutec conducts constant development of the system to continue honing both the user interface and system functions. Over time, this helps operators and sawmills alike work more efficiently and profitably. Optimized for TC continuous kilns Today’s powerful TC continuous kilns provide individual climate control in each zone. TC kilns consist of up to 14 zones, meaning that excellent system support is needed for the operator to make the most of each piece of lumber. Valmatics 4.0 has the only simulator on the market for batch kilns and TC continuous kilns, offering control with full schedules in up to 14 zones at the same time. The operator only needs to know the characteristics of the lumber and the desired output quality, and the system takes care of the rest. Constant development Valmatics 4.0 is under constant development, and over time the system is upgraded with new functions. Among the functions added since its launch in 2019, is one that optimizes the interaction between drying and boiler load. Another important added function is the ability to optimize drying with regard to the electricity price on the spot market – a function that is all the more important in times when energy prices fluctuate so wildly.
