Company Profile - Luxscan

Luxscan Technologies


LuxScan is the worldwide leader in wood scanning. The company develops and commercialises industrial scanning systems for the timber industry.

Scanners are developed with high-tech technologies, such as color cameras, sensors laser, systems with X-rays that allowed the detection of defects of the board.
Thanks to these visual criteria (control of the aspect and the geometrical correspondence of wood sections), the wood is automatically classified and optimised at the cutting.

"Now that LuxScan belongs to the Weinig Group, we will have access to markets worldwide. LuxScan will be the only scanner manufacturer worldwide benefiting from such marketing potential and competent service", says Raphaėl Vogrig - Managing Director of LuxScan.
