Defensible Log Scale
Document each log’s dimensions, volume and scale in a clear, reviewable record.
PocketFab for Sawmills
Know what every log should produce—and what it actually did.
PocketFab turns calibrated visual evidence of each log into a defensible scale, defect record and optimized milling recommendation—and then verifies the prediction against the lumber actually produced.
From incoming log to finished lumber
Turn visual evidence into production intelligence.
PocketFab connects log measurement, visible-defect documentation, the milling decision and the actual lumber tally in one traceable record.
Visible-Defect Record
Preserve visible defects, deduction areas and supporting evidence for each log.
Optimized Milling Recommendation
Recommend the log rotation, opening face and production choice most likely to improve recovery or value.
Verified Lumber Recovery
Compare predicted yield with the lumber actually produced and identify where value was gained or lost.
The PocketFab difference
More than a log-scale estimate.
Traditional log scaling estimates what a log should contain. PocketFab measures the evidence, recommends how to recover the value and verifies whether the mill actually recovered it.
What the mill can gain
Improve lumber recovery
Support consistent log valuation
Reduce scaling disputes
Document defects and deductions
Improve log rotation and opening-face decisions
Compare predicted and actual yield
Identify recurring production losses
Build a recovery model specific to the mill
Create a traceable record for every log
Measure the log. Optimize the cut. Verify the recovery.
PocketFab provides defensible log measurement and mill-specific recovery intelligence from the moment a log enters the yard through the lumber it ultimately produces.
