Alent Dynamic offers an advanced wood drying solution designed to meet industry demands for efficient and precise moisture content management. Using a patented method, this system optimizes the drying process by reducing energy consumption and speeding up drying times. It ensures even moisture distribution in the timber, minimizing issues like tension, discoloration, and cracking. The technology features automatic data collection and secure cloud-based backup services, enhancing reliability. Compatible with a wide range of kilns, the system is supported by online services for continuous monitoring and optimization. Additional components such as the WMC Soft Sensor and Alent Dynamic® Optimize further refine operation by using real-time data to adjust drying cycles and manage power consumption effectively. This comprehensive solution is designed to improve product quality and ensure significant energy savings, promising a quick return on investment.
The use of wood in the world is increasing. Customer demands become tougher, competition as well. Like the market awareness of the environment and sustainable use of Earth's resources.
An investment in four new drying kilns is around 0,8-2,4 Million Euro.

Alent Dynamic® is present during start-up.
Return On Investment within one (1) year.
This applies regardless of whether a sawmill wants to replace existing drying system to the Alent Dynamic® drying process or when reinvesting brand new drying kilns with the Alent Dynamic® drying process at start.
The method and precision with which timber is dried has a profound impact on the quality of the product and — by extension — its value. Alent Dynamic® is based on our unique and patented method for wood drying.
Increase the sales value of your product
The Alent Dynamic® method guarantees a more even and specific target moisture content throughout the load, as well as in individual items. It causes less tension and reduces discoloration and cracking. The result is a higher quality product that can be sold to a higher price.
Automatic and secure data backup
Alent Dynamic® collects and stores every single piece of data it can measure. Your data is backed up on secure cloud servers and can be restored within 48 hours should a fire or some other damage result in the loss of your local database.
Save time and (a lot of) energy
Alent Dynamic® dries faster than systems using the conventional methods; it requires less heat and close to half the amount of electricity. For a single kiln it is possible to reduce energy usage by up to 300 000 kWh per year.
Online service & support
Alent Dynamic® and our service personnel can provide continuous monitoring of the flow of data and will alert you and suggest a course of action if less-than-optimal conditions are registered.
