Abstract
The planing and moulding sector of the timber industry is a complex machining environment. The production process is hampered by short tool life, frequent job changes and long set‐up times with a concomitant machine utilization of as little as 30 per cent. Investigates the requirements for finished timber section production and develops a strategy for alleviating the most significant production bottlenecks to reduce downtime. The proposed scheme offers a considerable reduction in downtime via the efficient control and passage of machining data and embodiments of machine setting aids. This provides a platform for successful CIM implementation.
