OMNIR: On-Line Near Infrared Sensor
OMNIR is the future of near infrared moisture sensing technology. Coming from OMNI, meaning “all” and NIR, meaning “near infrared,” Finna Sensors has created an intelligent all-sensing solution that exceeds expectations. It not only delivers accurate data instantaneously and non-destructively, it also monitors its own health to perform its best during your crucial processing moments. By selectively harnessing light, to ensure increased uptime and greater profitability for your operation, the future of your manufacturing operation starts now.

On-Line Moisture Meters
Many methods are available for measuring moisture content on line, in real time: NIR, RF Capacitance, NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance), and Microwave, among others. Finna Sensors is unique in that it has experience with most of these methods and is therefore able to recommend the best possible solution for any application.

Precigrader: Acoustic MSR System
Precigrader is an acoustic on-line strength grading system. The system is installed in more than 150 mills. It is used to determine common commercial grades in North America, including 1650 and 2100. A spring-loaded impact mechanism strikes the lumber as it passes. The resulting vibration is captured by microphones to determine the appropriate MSR grade.

Sawmill Green Lumber Sorting System
The transverse sawmill meter sorts pieces into four moisture groups with similar drying characteristics by assigning a dry-ability index number. This critical first step in end-to-end moisture control improves kiln performance by reducing aggregate standard deviation and total drying time when compared to unsorted loads.

Transverse HD Sawmill Meter
MC PRO 1500 HDNC
Finna Sensors built the Transverse HDNC Sawmill Meter to increase the number of potential sensors from 8 to 24. The sensors can now be specified to fit within chain runs and can be located on both the top and bottom faces. This significant increase in surface area allows mills to identify sapwood/heartwood boundary areas or wet pockets for proper sorting prior to kiln drying. Sorting by moisture content has been shown to improve drying productivity by 10% to 15%, as well as, enhance lumber recovery. Further advancements in the software allow users to track packages through the drying process, add Internet of Things (IOT) data and perform advanced analytics with new reports.

SMART III RF Probe
Finna Sensors’ Smart III RF Moisture Probe is appropriate in those situations where NIR use on conveying systems/web applications or RF flat plate sensor use on board type products are not sufficient. Examples include tanks, bins, barrels, drums, Super Sacks™, silos, etc. These applications require a probe type moisture meter where the probe is inserted into, and is surrounded by product. Since the probe generates a 3 inch diameter radio frequency field around the length of the probe, a significant volume of product is measured. As the product is slowly removed from the silo, and refilled from the top, it passes by the RF Probe, thereby providing a constant real time moisture measurement. Typical applications would include starches, distillers and brewers grains, granulated chemicals or food ingredients, whole grains such as corn kernels, rice, soybeans, tree nut stockpiles, etc.
