An Investment in Productivity
Tembec Forest Products Group in Huntsville Ontario are using MicroLoads on two CAT 325 MH (machines that sort and weigh wood in the mill yard) in the bush to establish payment to logging contractors by weight. Prior to adapting MicroLoad this was a time consuming supervisory responsibility. Now it is done automatically by a push of a button on the machine control lever and has little effect the machine cycle time.

Since December 1998, Tembec has been using MicroLoads on a Liebherr 924 in the mill yard to sort and scale several different species of hard wood. Gerald Kroes, Mill Manager states "MicroLoad has cut the time it took for manual hand scaling from 1-1 1/2 hours to 30-40 minutes. Accuracy is not an issue as the MicroLoad is well within the 1% accurate".

All of Tembec's MicroLoad systems use the optional ticket printer and the Data Logger in order to transfer multiple long totals via the 64K cartridge directly into their office PC spreadsheet program.

MicroLoad Push-to-Weigh switch, allows the machine operator to choose the best time and position for weighing the load. In all loading applications MicroLoad allows the operator to select the options most suited for the job, such as count up, count down, unit of measure, product & attachment calibration. MicroLoad for material handlers is unaffected by engine RPM or the position of the boom and dipper.

The target mode allows count down to zero as loading progresses. With the optional printer MicroLoad can even automatically print a ticket.

In materials re-handling, the count up mode enables MicroLoad to keep an on screen running total of large loads that are delivered to train cars, ships or stock piles. The Long Totals memory tracks total production of each pile or species separately.

In logging operations MicroLoad can be used for Scaling. Just transfer the memorized individual species load weight into eXelerator on a PC or use the Data Logger and convert the weight to board feet.
