Timber price per volume unit:			^³
Waney edge point: ? By definition, 'waney edged' is: A sawn plank of wood still retaining a natural edge (may include the bark) along one or both sides of the piece of timber. The 'Waney Edge Point' is a distance from a log's bottom end to the point where waney edge appears on timber due to logging taper and continues towards the log's smaller end.
Log taper per meter(!): ? To be specified per meter/3.3 foot. The taper of a log is the difference in the diameter of a log at its ends, which is due to its natural shape. The diameter gradually becomes less towards a log small end.

Log Batch Cutting Optimization in a sawmill

How do you choose which timber to cut from what log?
It's easy to fall into the trap of cutting small dimensional timber out of large logs.
Instead of processing logs individually, log batch cutting involves analyzing and planning the cutting patterns for a group or batch of logs together. The goal of log batch cutting optimization is to find the most efficient way to cut the logs within the batch. By analyzing the collective characteristics of the logs in the batch, optimization techniques are applied to determine the optimal solutions.
Ensure you take all necessary measurements for the entire batch of logs before beginning the cutting process. This approach helps minimize waste and maximize utilization of the available wood.
Waste nothing!.
