Customer & Challenge

Versowood, Finland’s largest private sawn timber producer, continuously invests in improving efficiency and throughput across its operations. At the Hankasalmi sawmill, increasing production volumes placed new demands on the packaging process, highlighting bottlenecks that limited overall performance. The objective was to modernize the packaging line to support higher capacity, improve reliability, and enhance workplace safety - while ensuring the system remained intuitive and easy for operators to use in daily production. 

The Solution – What Jartek Delivered

Jartek delivered a fully modernized packaging line with advanced automation designed to streamline operations and eliminate inefficiencies. The solution enhances material flow, reduces stoppages, and increases processing speed, while automated adjustments minimize the need for manual input. A strong focus on usability, developed in collaboration with operators - ensures a clear and intuitive interface, enabling fast adoption. In addition, integrated safety features and optimized system performance support a more efficient, reliable, and safe production environment with reduced staffing requirements.
