As a fully integrated forest product company, F.H. Stoltze continues their legacy of improvement and expansion with MiCROTEC’s Lucidyne scanner featuring dedicated support and access to scanner experts, 24/7

In the spring of 2021, F.H. Stoltze Land and Lumber purchased a Lucidyne scanner with MiCROTEC Ai from MiCROTEC for installation in their Columbia Falls, MT planer mill. F.H Stoltze chose the Lucidyne scanner after researching scanning solutions to meet their high standard of quality in their sawmilling operations. According to Trevor Kjensrud, plant manager at F.H. Stoltze, “MiCROTEC’s knowledge, professionalism, customer service and being the leader in the auto grader industry” are the reasons they chose MiCROTEC over the competition. MiCROTEC’s 1 year support contract offering 24/7 access to the product support team as part of the Lucidyne scanner purchase supported Stoltze Land and Lumber’s priorities for their decision.

The scanner provides high speed lineal scanning to Stoltze Land and Lumber’s planer mill along with MiCROTEC AI, using deep learning artificial intelligence for unmatched defect detection and grading results. The intuitive QCAssist tool provides seamless communication with the Lucidyne system to do quality control checks from evaluation sites.
