Profile-it 3D™ Software
Profile-it 3D is a Windows based software component of the Forestbucker system. It uses true-shape 3D scanning and tree-length optimisation to provide maximum log value recovery. The software remotely controls the scanner trolley to automatically scan stem properties like diameters, volume, length, sweep and wobble. Video cameras mounted on the trolley provide video and images of the stem to enable an operator to record additional stem defects.

Log Grade Manager
is a Microsoft Access application used for configuring log-grades, cut-plans and process-instructions. Log Grade Manager is used to centrally manage and control output production of log products and volumes.
