Tree tomography
The ARBOTOM® is a novel impulse tomography unit that enables an inside view of condition of trees and round wood. Hidden decay, invisible cavities and cracks and how large they are become visible with ARBOTOM® using sound impulses.

Electronically controlled drill resistance measurement
It is often not easy to detect the inner condition of trees and wooden structures. The RESISTOGRAPH® exposes this condition using electronically controlled drill resistance measurement.

The tool for RESISTOGRAPH® profiles
Using the DECOM™ software, you can get even more out of the profiles of your RESISTOGRAPH®. The profiles can be displayed on the screen or printed as a graphic chart, and can be processed for your reports. Mathematical and statistical routines are available for scientific applications, such as trend adjustments, tree ring detection, etc.

Precision – for every single tree ring
Measuring tree rings requires high precision and a reliable method of measuring. LINTAB™ easily meets these requirements, and is furthermore easy to handle, ergonomic, robust and weatherproof. Both cookies (cross section, disc, disk, stem disc, transverse section) and cores can be measured. Together TSAP-Win™ and LINTAB™ are a strong team for analyzing tree rings.

Preparation and recording
LIGNOSTATION™ is a compact, high-resolution system for preparing wood surfaces and recording the tree ring parameters and the wood density. LIGNOSTATION™, developed in cooperation with the University of Freiburg, is based on an entirely novel concept.

Surface scans – tree rings with a mouse click
LIGNOVISION™ automatically detects the tree rings of softwoods and some deciduous/foliage trees, thus it takes care of a great portion of your routine work for you, and saves a lot of time. In addition to the width of the tree rings, early wood and autumn wood are also automatically detected. Most high-resolution scanners or distortion-free digital photographs can be used for data recording.

Tree value at a mouse click
What is the value of a tree? How can damages of partial areas be calculated? These are the questions expert witnesses and courts often have to deal with. The most frequent causes requiring a valuation of trees or wood are damages caused by vehicle collisions, vandalism and unauthorized felling. ARBOTAX™ saves you valuable time and calculates the value of wood and partial damages in a matter of seconds. ARBOTAX™ is regularly updated and adapted to the FLL Guidelines. |

Wind load analysis
The RINNTECH Arwilo ™ software allows the estimation of the crown area and the
load center (this is the focused wind load pressure point in the crown).
Therefore it is necessary to capture the geometry of the tree, manual recording
of the tree crown, the trunk and the tree height.
The wind load of the tree can be calculated from these parameters and serves as
a reference for virtually shortened crown. A pruning reduces wind load on the
one hand, on the other hand, the torsion load.

Recording dynamic behaviour of trees
Wind is by far the dominating mechanical force on trees. Studying the dynamic behaviour of trees helps researchers to understand their mechanical design and conditions of failure. DYNATIM™ is a sensitive system recording even minimal movements of trees - or wooden constructions. |
