In a West Fraser mill in Florida, an Opticom CC04 camera took a direct hit by a board moving on the line—and it survived. The camera still works; it just had to be remounted on a new vibration mount.
“All we had to do was replace the mount,” said Richard Akers. The camera continues to work, even after a high-speed direct hit. “This is a testament to the durability of Opticom cameras.”
“We’ve done our research, and they’re the best cameras that are available,” said Akers. “Plus, Opticom is super knowledgeable about sawmills and what we need for video monitoring.”
