VIIMA
New measurement and modeling technologies of veneer products and processes
The aim is to develop measurement and analysis techniques for engineered wood products in collaboration between Xamk and industry partners.
The developed and applied measurement technologies enable a significantly deeper understanding
The use of wood in construction, transportation, and aviation is increasing, with most wood products being bonded. However, the development of new bio-based adhesives and solutions is slow due to limited experience in their interaction with wood. The properties of wood raw material and its processing affect product quality. Developing new composite products requires a broader understanding of raw material properties and new modeling and measurement technologies.

Aim
The aim of the project is to develop measurement and analysis techniques for engineered wood products (LVL, plywood, glued wood composite structures, etc.) in collaboration between Xamk and industry partners.
The developed and applied measurement technologies enable a significantly deeper understanding and control of wood material properties, strength characteristics of wood products, and the interaction between wood and bio-based adhesives.
