ADVANCED PHOTONIX INVOLVED IN TIMBER QUALITY ANALYSIS

Hopefully, I have linked the television video out of Canada that shows the use of the Del-Tech machine, which incorporates the Advanced Photonix, terahertz system. THIS IS GREAT DEMONSTRATION OF QUALITY CONTROL OF ALL KINDS. THE POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS ARE ENDLESS!

Dr. Matt Reid at the University of Northern British Columbia is using the new kilohertz T-Ray((R)) 4000 to provide cost savings
and process control in the wood processing industry. Dr. Reid describes the T-Ray((R)) 4000 as "the fastest and most robust
pulsed THz system in the world [which] makes tomorrow's real-time industrial THz scanning applications a reality today." His
work is being conducted in conjunction with the College of New Caledonia, the Ministry of Forests and Range, and Del-Tech
Manufacturing. Del-Tech is a primary manufacturer of biomass-fuelled systems that supply thermal energy for lumber kilns, material dryers, board presses, power generation, and plant heating systems. Del-Tech is also a designer of manufacturing machinery for the forest industry.
Irl Duling, Director of Terahertz Business Development at Picometrix, a wholly owned subsidiary of Advanced Photonix, (API), commented, "With the introduction of the new kilohertz controller, producers can improve the efficiency of their manufacturing process, reducing waste while improving product quality and Picometrix demonstrates our commitment to continue to supply the world's best-integrated terahertz systems."
