  • Products

    3-D laser scanning has revolutionized the wood products industry. Scanning and profiling logs and boards with non-contact laser measurement is a major breakthrough, allowing mills to optimize their cutting decisions and maximize yield. JoeScan® scanners offer the best of ingenuity and technology. Every JoeScan JS-25 scan head is simple to install, easy to use and built tough for maximum reliability.

  • Our Story

    The first generation of 3-D laser scanners for sawmills were complex, unreliable and expensive. In the great American tradition, someone decided there had to be a better way – and then built it. That’s how JoeScan started, and that same principle drives us to continue improving laser scanning. View our Company Profile for a brief snapshot of our story, products and industry applications.

    JoeScan strives to provide exceptional support and documentation for all our products. Toward that goal, we’ve made all our documentation, software, and libraries available to you. If you have an inquiry, our knowledgeable Support team responds quickly and values your feedback about how we can better support you. With JoeScan, you gain a true partner – not just another vendor.
