Two years ago Microtec acquired the American market leader & pioneer in the field of AI-based scanner solutions Lucidyne. Exactly one year after the rebrandings of Finscan as Microtec Espoo and Woodeye as Microtec Linköping in Europe, which have taken place in the meantime, now the brand integration in America and Canada follows. The worldwide one brand strategy of Microtec as the world-leading wood scanning solutions is entering its final phase.
Lucidyne becomes Microtec Corvallis. Springer- Microtec in Vancouver becomes Microtec Vancouver and is one team together with Corvallis. Microtec Corvallis is the Microtec hub for the North American market as well as Australia and New Zealand.
All Microtec customers in Australia and New Zealand will be supported by Microtec Corvallis.
Since the start of the cooperation, one of the main goals has been to combine the state-of-the-art technologies of both companies. For Europe, this means above all integrating the revolutionary and patented Artificial Intelligence platform into the complete Microtec product range and with this innovation step to bring the AI scale from logs to lumber scanners to the next level. All R & D teams are working together at full speed to achieve this goal. "We are very proud to be able to expand the competencies in the field of artificial intelligence for Europe with our US know how," emphasizes Patrick Freeman, to date CTO of Lucidyne.
As a global technology partner for the wood processing industry, the Microtec team is constantly developing new approaches and solutions to add value in the sawmilling and wood processing industry.
