Failure modes to watch for
Every guide in the USNR USNR LASAR scanner & headrig library lists the candidate root causes its procedure rules out. These are the distinct failure modes we've documented so far, a useful starting point if you don't yet know which specific alarm or symptom you're chasing.
Setworks encoder slipping or worn, giving inaccurate position feedback
Drive chain stretched or worn causing lost motion in positioning
Carriage rail contamination or wear increasing friction and causing overshoot
Setworks control parameters (deceleration, gain) drifted from calibration
Arbor bearing wear allowing lateral saw plate movement
Saw plate undertensioned, reducing lateral stiffness at operating speed
Saw collar run-out from wear or contamination on the seating face
Damaged or missing tooth tips creating a periodic impulse

How to diagnose saw vibration on a USNR Sawmill Headrig
Headrig saw vibration causes wavy sawn surfaces and increases saw kerf waste. Check arbor bearing condition, saw tension, and collar flatness before increasing feed speed.
How to fix log carriage positioning error on a USNR Sawmill Headrig
Carriage positioning error results in off-dimension lumber and reduced yield. Check the setworks encoder, drive chain, and carriage rail alignment before running a dimension cut test.
How to recalibrate a drifted USNR LASAR Scanner on a Sawmill Headrig
Scanner calibration drift causes the optimizer to misread log dimensions and reduce lumber value recovery. Run the calibration procedure with a certified target and compare optimizer outputs to measured dimensions.
