Specializing in automation, our team supports manufacturers by distributing high-tech products and application modules designed to address challenges related to production throughput, manufacturing efficiency, and product quality.
Our modular approach simplifies and accelerates automation adoption while promoting the transfer of the skills required to make companies self-sufficient in operating the technologies they deploy.
How Does Cadence Help Optimize Operations in Sawmills?
Design and sale of pre-programmed standard automation modules for the wood industry to improve sawmill efficiency.
Distribution of high-tech components designed to withstand the demanding environments found in sawmills, backed by expert advice and technical support.
Consulting on technological approaches. Analysis of operational processes and the level of difficulty involved in automating them to reduce risk. Project prioritization based on expected gains, impacts, and level of complexity.
Ongoing training to keep you informed about the latest technologies.
Technical personnel available to support the components and modules sold, with the goal of transferring the required expertise and knowledge to your team.
More than $2 million in equipment dedicated to feasibility studies, technological risk analysis, and application validation.
Our standard modular approach is built around our MC4, MC12, and MC24 controllers, which can support up to 4, 12, or 24 specialized and field-proven industrial Apps & Hardware solutions, respectively.
