Hans Hunskjær - Production employee 

Today, the visit will take you to the production department, where you will meet Hans Hunskjær, who is responsible for our cutting department. Our cutters are responsible for sawing the wood into different lengths and dividing it into different grades to suit the various orders.

Hans collects the raw wood with a truck and feeds it into the machine in lengths ranging from 2.7 m to 6 m. The machine scans the raw wood, obtains information about its dimensions, knots, and cracks, and then saws the wood into the desired sizes. Hans is committed to minimizing waste in this process by optimizing the lengths as much as possible.

After cutting, Hans goes through various control procedures to ensure that the wood meets the desired requirements. Among other things, Hans checks the length, angle, and whether the pith side is facing upwards. This control is important, as many of our machines are sensitive and even small deviations can cause major problems later in production, which is why Hans works with great thoroughness.
