What is the M55-56 Sword wood moisture meter?

The M55-56 Sword wood moisture meter is a moisture meter for wood that features a 110cm measuring probe for insertion into the middle of pallets or panels. Its robust construction, using high-quality materials, allows it to be used on the factory floor, at the entrance and/or exit of the drying kiln, among other locations.

This moisture determiner is used on the factory floor and at the entrance and/or exit of the drying kiln, so its construction is robust, using high-quality materials to withstand daily use.

And what is the significant difference between the M55-56 Sword wood moisture meter and the M51 and M52 meters?

The M55-56 Sword has a 110cm probe for insertion into the middle of wooden pallets or panels, encompassing more than one wood plank in the measurement, resulting in a much more accurate average.

In addition to this moisture measurement probe, it also has another measurement point on the meter itself, just like an M51 or M52.

For you, as a manager or production leader, what does the M55-56 Sword wood moisture meter offer?

It comes with our software, UmiData, a powerful tool for storing data collected by the meter and downloaded via USB to a PC.

These data can then be displayed in various types of graphs, histories, and exported in Excel or other file formats.

What is the UmiData software?

UmiData is a powerful tool for data collection and storage. Through this supervisory tool, it’s possible to create and analyze recipes present in the equipment.

The collected data (moisture readings) can be downloaded via USB cable to a PC to be displayed through reports, graphs, histories, and tables. In addition to the online viewing of these reports, there is also the option to export them in CSV format to be read via Excel, ensuring better optimization for your company!

Why have a wood moisture meter?

It is important to have a moisture meter like the M55-56 Sword in the wood drying process because wood quality can be determined by moisture. Excessively moist wood can develop mold, i.e., create fungi, and overly dry wood can warp and become unusable.

Benefits of having an M55-56 Sword:

  1. Quality control of the process
  2. Better wood utilization (avoids waste)
  3. More data for decision-making in the sawmill or drying process
  4. Production management of wood drying
  5. Moisture reports and histories
  6. Better ability to predict or identify errors in the process
  7. Ability to measure more than one plank at a time, thus obtaining a more accurate average of moisture

Common questions

  • Why use a moisture meter?

    With the use of a moisture meter in your process, it is much easier, faster and more practical to measure the humidity of the product you are manufacturing to certify its quality or the need for other treatments to ensure that the final product is uniform.

  • How to use the moisture meter?

    With Marrari gauges it is easy: there is no need to pin or drill the material. Just select the recipe or density of the wood (for wood moisture meters), place the meter on the material surface and that's it: the moisture will be shown on the display.

  • Does it measure materials that are not organic?

    No, our meters are calibrated and made with only organic materials in mind. Because the measurement method is more accurate with these types of material.

  • Can I calibrate the meter myself?

    Yea! With the UmiData software you can calibrate, receive reports, generate reports and check the measurement history from your computer. And if you need help, you can count on Marrari after sales to teach you how to use the software and calibrate the equipment.
