A NEW WAY
OF DRYING

Discover the range of Logica systems: always one step ahead in wood drying

Why does an advanced control system make the difference?

An advanced control system is the heart of an optimized drying process. With Logica H&S systems, you can transform your dryer into a high-performance plant, with tangible benefits at every stage of the process.

Greater efficiency
and productivity

Automate* and optimize the drying process:

Precise control of temperature, airflow, and moisture
Reduced energy consumption
Increased overall productivity

Superior quality
of dried wood

Ideal conditions ensure uniform
and defect-free drying:

Fewer cracks, deformations, and waste
High-quality products that meet your
customers’ expectations

Remote control and operational flexibility

Monitor and manage the process from anywhere*:

Check parameters and progress in real-time
Make immediate adjustments, even remotely
Maximum operational freedom for total control

*Functionality limited to advanced systems

Automatic or Semi-automatic?

An automatic control system for wood dryers is designed to manage the entire drying process without human intervention. It uses sensors, measurement tools and control algorithms to automatically monitor and adjust key parameters such as temperature, humidity, airflow and drying time.

ADVANTAGES

Efficiency: An automatic system can optimize the drying parameters according to the specific conditions of the wood, improving the overall efficiency of the process.
Less human intervention: Requires less supervision and human intervention, allowing you to spend fewer resources managing the dryer.
Accuracy: Can keep drying parameters within very precise limits, ensuring consistent, high-quality results

DISADVANTAGES

Cost: These control systems tend to be more expensive than semi-automatic systems, as they require more advanced technologies and development time.
Complexity: Configuring and programming an automated system may require specialized technical skills

A semi-automatic control system requires some degree of human intervention in the drying process. For example, it may require the operator to manually adjust the temperature or humidity based on readings provided by the sensors.

ADVANTAGES

Usually less expensive than an automatic system, which can be beneficial if your budget is tight.
Human control: The operator has direct control over the process and can make changes based on his experience and intuition.

DISADVANTAGES

Operator dependency: The quality and efficiency of the process largely depend on the skills and attention of the operator.
Possibility of errors: The possibility of human errors can affect the consistency of the results and the quality of the dried wood.

How do they work?

Each dryer has its own specificities, and at Logica H&S, we know it well. That’s why our systems are designed to integrate seamlessly, both in new plants and in those undergoing upgrades, enhancing efficiency and optimizing the drying process.

Intuitive interface and constant data control

Innovation isn’t just in processes but also in the user experience:

User-friendly dashboard: all essential parameters at your fingertips
Advanced data analysis: charts and reports to help you better understand your drying process
Smart alarms: real-time notifications to prevent issues
