SHARE

The dTOUCH system revolutionizes kiln drying control by integrating advanced traditional control systems with expert knowledge in wood drying. Developed in collaboration with IVALSA, Italy's National Research Council, this system is equipped with a comprehensive library of programs for over 400 wood species. dTOUCH not only manages standard drying processes but also tailors cycles to maintain or alter wood color. It uses sensor data and user input to customize drying cycles, addressing unique requirements like frozen or encrusted wood. The system's intuitive interface, featuring a touch screen and multilingual menus, simplifies the customization of drying cycles, allowing users to specify drying objectives easily. Compatible with LOGICA H&S's latest sensors and actuators, dTOUCH supports a wide range of configurations, including wireless options, for effective drying cycle management up to 100°C, enhancing both user experience and drying efficiency.

dTOUCH represents a step forward in control systems for kiln dryers, as it consists of the union between advanced and flexible traditional control systems with the knowledge of international experts in the field of wood drying.

It was developed in collaboration with IVALSA: the Italian institute part of the CNR (National Research Council) which also includes a specific research and experimentation laboratory for wood drying.

The dTOUCH system includes a wide library of basic programs for over 400 wood species, including special cycles to maintain or alter the natural color of the wood, for rapid processes etc ...

dTOUCH uses this database, together with the information received from the sensors and with that provided by the user (e.g. requested quality, time / quality priority, special needs, etc.) to always create the most suitable program to best dry the product according to the user's requests...

... because a large library of programs is not enough: the possible needs are different and the programs must be different to satisfy them.

dTOUCH is able to automatically recognize possible critical issues in the process (eg frozen wood, encrusted wood, etc.) and to automatically integrate the drying cycle with the most suitable solutions.

Thanks to dTOUCH, creating a customized program no longer requires the study of drying methods and the manual modification of the adjustment parameters (temperature, moisture, time, phases, etc.) simply "explain" to the system what you intend to achieve by answering a few simple questions, and the system will create the most suitable cycle for you.

dTOUCH is a control system with great potential, which are now in the first phase of development, and which will be further integrated in the near future, thanks to cooperation with IVALSA and experimentation on pilot plants.

Thanks to the automatic update function your dTOUCH will be able to take advantage, free of charge and without any difficulty, of the continuous improvements and additional functions that will be developed on this product.

In addition to the advanced features it already has, further advanced features such as:

Evaluation of the cycle this function, particularly useful in the case of repeated drying on material with homogeneous characteristics (by species, thickness and initial conditions), will allow you to optimize the drying programs based on your system and your needs.

At the end of the drying cycle, it will be possible to express an evaluation on the drying cycle that has just ended; your dTOUCH expert will use the information received to change the cycle used and will record the changes for future uses.

Problem solver
A special function will allow the user to communicate to the system any doubts regarding the cycle in progress (e.g. too long times, occurrence of defects, etc.) through a simple guided procedure, at the end of which the system will take the most appropriate measures, updating automatically the program in progress.
