For sawmills that cut a wide range of products to order, which is typical of most sawmills outside of North America, getting the right product to the right customer in a timely manner is critical. Determining which logs to process, with which sawing patterns, is difficult. Add to this the need to consider different log purchase options, market opportunities, and production constraints, and it becomes obvious that making truly optimum operating decisions with conventional planning methods is impossible. The SAWSIM®-LP linear programming optimization system was developed to help sawmilling operations determine "sawing pattern recipes" - the optimum mix of sawing patterns to convert a known input log mix to a specified production mix. In addition to assisting with these shorter term production planning decisions, the system can also be used to evaluate longer term marketing and log procurement questions.
