Investigation of automatic control system in wood drying facilities

Abstract

The article analyses the automatic control systems in modern wood drying facilities as well as their functions and possibilities. The analysis of the publications available [1, 2, 3] indicates that nowadays there are widely applied in our country various types of wood drying facilities with different level of automation. Although the possibilities of the fully computer-assisted control systems at the wood drying facilities are considered to be rather extensive, but in the scientific publications available there has been noticed the shortage regarding the information on the structure of the systems, the algorithm concerning the manufacturing processes, programs, sensors and their interrelation and correlation.
