The development of many sawmills is moving towards sawing more dimensions and qualities, which places increased demands on reliable system support. It has made the in-built simulator an even more important component of Valmatics 4.0, which now has a full simulator support for all types of drying models.
"When the user sees that the right quality can be achieved by using the simulator, it will of course be easier to lean against it next time the conditions change. Poor quality lumber should never come out of a Valmatic kiln", says Thomas Wamming, Development Manager at Valutec.

Valutec continuous kilns are gaining ever greater market share in central Europe. The most recent example is the OTC continuous kiln from Valutec delivered to Austrian company Mosser's sawmill in Wolfpassing, which not only represents a clear increase in drying capacity, but also product quality.

The latest model of Valutec’s TC continuous kilns has been a worldwide success. Arguably, it is the first type of kiln other than the traditional batch kiln that suits the need of every market around the world.

We’re approaching the end of the year and it’s time to both reflect and look forward. For us at Valutec it’s been an exciting year as sawmills from all over the world have invested in our TC continuous kilns.
