Sobre mí

Profile Manager: My name is Adelbert-Ludwig Lazay – I am a forest product engineer with a master’s degree in wood science from the University of Hamburg, specialized in planning of production plants for solid wood processing of plantation timbers in nothern Latin America. Through the management of various hardwood sawmills in Germany and Colombia, I gained extensive practical process knowledge as well as a wide understanding of local conditions and the wood market itself. Projects have been realized so far in: Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Panamá.
For me, “planning of solid wood processing plants” means finding, on the one hand, the solution that best suits your needs, and, on the other hand, that best matches local conditions, so that optimal production conditions can be achieved.
Additionally, creation of local processing capacity for reforested timbers contributes to strengthening of the forestry sector, which, as a useful and desirable side effect, encourages the expansion of forest plantations – this especially in times when it is essential to preserve natural forest resources or, at best, even enlarge them a
Know-how
Mechanized sawmills were first documented in the 13th century. These were, in the context of the mill diversification at that time, modified grain mills that could saw wood using hydropower. Today, the wood industry (4.0) works with scanners and robots, which also communicate with each other and thus optimize woodworking process chains and maximize capacities.
We offer you the entire range of feasible solutions for your project, so that you get a complete and solid overview of the technical possibilities. This way you can make a well-founded decision on your investments.
To date, we have successfully implemented projects in the following areas:
- Planning and construction of a sawmill for small diameter plantation timber.
- Expansion of a saw line with band resaws.
- Optimization of drying schedules.
- Supply logistics for forest plantations in the tropics (harvest planning, timber transport).
- Analysis and improvement of administrative processes in various sawmills.
- Training of manpower on mobile band saws, sharpening machines, circular sawmills, trim saws, quality grading of sawn timber, technical wood drying, others.
- There is concrete experience with the processing and marketing of the following wood species: European woods such as oak, beech, pine, ash, walnut and others. Tropical woods such as teak, roble / apamate, acacia, melina, ceiba, eucalyptus, Caribbean pine, balsa and others.
