Easy-Laser® XT980 - Sawmill
The Easy-Laser® XT980 Sawmill system will help you increase efficiency and save money in your sawmill. The system measures straightness, flatness and squareness. Simple to use, even for your own maintenance and production staff. Equally useful on band saws and circular saws.
Easy-Laser XT980 is a laser based measurement and alignment system that helps sawmills to make optimal use of their facilities. Correctly set up machines make it possible to maintain a high rate of production with the highest quality end products hour after hour.
Easy-Laser XT980 makes it fast and easy to measure and adjust reducers, counterholds, band and circular saw blades. The laser transmitter in XT980 can be used as a rotated point, which gives a ”plane” to measure against. It replaces the traditional cord/wire, that was tensioned in the centre, and enables you to move around freely in the machine, screwing and adjusting, while following the result of the adjustment in real time.
With XT980 you can measure straightness, flatness and squareness in relation to the vertical and horizontal planes if you wish. The system is easy for production and maintenance personnel to use and works for both band and circular saws. In addition, it is excellent for measuring flatness and ensuring that the base remains stable and level.
There is a rapid return on the investment through fewer production stoppages and more even quality in the sawn timber.

*=accessories needed
The XT70 measuring units utilize dot-type laser and 2-axis square PSD surfaces. A state-of-the-art OLED display shows the angle of the unit, making it easier to position it on the shaft.
The diagonally positioned fastening screws set the unit in a grid-lock on the rods. Rigid aluminium housing for maximum stability. IP66 and 67, dust- water- and shockproof. Heavy-duty battery for very long operating times. Built-in wireless technology.
Laser transmitter XT22 can be used to measure flatness, straightness, squareness, level and parallelism. The laser beam can sweep 360° with a measurement distance of up to 40 metres [130´] in radius. The laser head is super stable, but still easy to turn. No need for locking/unlocking screw.
We have installed electronic precision vials in the XT transmitters. This gives the advantage of faster feedback when levelling and less risk of errors during calibration, because all users see the same angular value (compared with reading spirit levels).
The laser beam can be pointed perpendicular to the flatness plane, within 0.01 mm/m [0.01 mils/inch]. XT22 has a fine turning mechanism for the laser head with a gear ratio of 1:1320, which makes it super easy to point the beam at the detector also on very long distances.
The fiber-coupled laser creates an extremely smooth laser beam profile, free from reflections and irregularities. This means that the laser beam will have very good optical properties in terms of straightness (± 0.003 mm [± 0.12 mils]).
The transmitter has many mounting options. The three super magnets can be mounted at many different positions on the transmitter, making it possible to also place the transmitter on a small surface, when needed.
The Multi-bracket (included) provides a lot of extra, versatile mounting possibilities, for example mounting on tripod, magnet bases, or rods to elevate the transmitter.
