How TimberTrace Works

From LiDAR Scan to Manufacturing-Ready CAD in Minutes

1

Upload Point Cloud

Upload your LiDAR scan (.ply, .las, .laz formats). Select your roof type (Pfettendach, Sparrendach, etc.) to activate the specialized AI model.

2

AI Reconstruction

Our Point Transformer V3 neural network segments individual beams with >90% accuracy, then extracts parametric dimensions with <5mm precision. Review the 3D preview and XML parameters.

3

Post-Processing

Fine-tune joinery details: override AI-detected connections with your preferred mortise-tenon, dovetail, or lap joints. Import saved preference profiles for consistent results.

4

Export & Manufacture

Download the complete roof assembly plus individual beam STL/STEP files. Import directly into your CNC software. All historical versions saved for iteration.
