An operator has to notice and react, and by the time they do, the log is often already jammed against equipment or backing up the line behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MarshallAI watches the line continuously and flags a rollover or stall the instant it happens, stopping the line automatically or alerting the operator before logs cause equipment damage or reach a point where someone could get hurt.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-8220bb97\">\n<h2 class=\"gb-text gbp-section__headline mai-reveal mai-headline\">Accurate Grading<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grading raw, rough-sawn lumber is a structural and dimensional check: catching wane, knots, splits and checks, and warp (bow, crook, cup, and twist) to sort each board into the correct structural or dimensional grade straight off the saw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grading planed, surfaced (S4S) lumber is a different job. Once the face is smooth, appearance-grade characteristics like mineral streak, pitch pockets, planer snipe, and color and grain matching become what determines value. MarshallAI applies the right detection criteria for each stage, at line speed, on every board.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-d28cca8c\">\n<h2 class=\"gb-text gbp-section__headline mai-reveal mai-headline\">Fast Deployment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MarshallAI deploys on the CCTV and camera infrastructure you already have, so there&#8217;s no new hardware to wait on to get started. Every model is trained specifically for your mill&#8217;s layout, lighting, and species mix, not a generic pre-set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The vision pipeline scales with GPU and parallel processing, keeping pace with line speeds of 200+ metres per minute, well above what most industrial resaws and edgers run today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"mai-section\">\n<h2 class=\"gb-text gb-text-fc92425e mai-headline mai-reveal\">Capabilities used<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-aaf8cc11\">\n<div><ul class=\"gbp-list--unstyled gb-looper-24768883\">\n<li class=\"gb-loop-item post-3349 capability type-capability status-publish hentry capability-type-detection-and-inspection capability_tag-beverage-industry capability_tag-cosmetics-manufacturing\">\n<article class=\"mai-card-article gb-element-102ad18a\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-bf09ff16\">\n<span class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-title\">Color Detection &amp; Verification<\/span>\n\n\n\n<div>\n<p class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-text\">Identifies and verifies color against a defined reference, catching mismatched product, print, packaging or paint color.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n\n<li class=\"gb-loop-item post-3346 capability type-capability status-publish hentry capability-type-detection-and-inspection capability_tag-beverage-industry capability_tag-cosmetics-manufacturing\">\n<article class=\"mai-card-article gb-element-102ad18a\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-bf09ff16\">\n<span class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-title\">Anomaly &amp; Defect Detection<\/span>\n\n\n\n<div>\n<p class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-text\">Flags trained deviations including damage, contamination, or irregularities that were not explicitly programmed in advance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n\n<li class=\"gb-loop-item post-3350 capability type-capability status-publish hentry capability-type-identification-and-recognition capability_tag-beverage-industry capability_tag-cosmetics-manufacturing\">\n<article class=\"mai-card-article gb-element-102ad18a\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-bf09ff16\">\n<span class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-title\">OCR &amp; Code Reading<\/span>\n\n\n\n<div>\n<p class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-text\">Reads and verifies printed or embossed text, including best before dates, batch codes, and serial numbers, even on curved, metal or low contrast surfaces. 1D barcodes, and 2D codes such as DataMatrix and QR.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n\n<li class=\"gb-loop-item post-3354 capability type-capability status-publish hentry capability-type-measurement-and-counting capability_tag-beverage-industry capability_tag-cosmetics-manufacturing\">\n<article class=\"mai-card-article gb-element-102ad18a\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-bf09ff16\">\n<span class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-title\">Object Counting &amp; Enumeration<\/span>\n\n\n\n<div>\n<p class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-text\">Counts units, parts, or occurrences within a frame or across a production run.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/li>\n\n<li class=\"gb-loop-item post-3360 capability type-capability status-publish hentry capability-type-multi-sensor-intelligence-and-actuation capability_tag-beverage-industry capability_tag-cosmetics-manufacturing\">\n<article class=\"mai-card-article gb-element-102ad18a\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-bf09ff16\">\n<span class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-title\">Real-Time Actuation &amp; Control<\/span>\n\n\n\n<div>\n<p class=\"gb-text mai-card-article-text\">Triggers a physical or digital response, such as a reject arm, gate, or PLC signal, automatically from a detection event.
