To keep up the momentum along the production line, we don’t shut it down during lunch. Instead, the management and maintenance teams join in to help grade and stack staves while other team members take their lunch breaks. We found that this extra 30 minutes of production each day adds up at the end of the month.

We are proud of our team members for contributing to this great accomplishment!

Team member Samantha Hill said she is very comfortable running the half saw, which turns whole sections of logs into halves. She said the most important thing is to make sure the log is cut dead center to eliminate cross grain, which could cause leaks in bourbon barrels. Samantha has been with us for six years.

We want to say a big Thank You to custodian Jan McLendon, who works hard to keep the office and employee break room clean. She also helps with mill cleanup with other team members after a productive shift. Jan has been with us for nine years, working at various jobs at the mill, and custodian for the last three years.

Safety is a core philosophy at Robinson Stave Georgia. Several times a month, team members such as Amber Raybon evaluate specific areas of the production line to make sure safety protocols are being followed. Here, she is checking the head stacking area and logging notes into a tablet for management review. This is just another way that we keep safety in the forefront of our operations. Our motto is, “Don’t Put Safety in the Bottom of the Barrel!”

A calibrated camera system is used to guide oak logs through the quarter saw. The system was designed by our own team members to speed up the operation and reduce wasted movements. We are continuing to find ways to improve production. Team member Jonathan Moore keeps the quarter saw running smoothly to feed the production line.

Cross training allows team members to move to different stations around the mill as needed. Here, Jamie Long shows Mike Blair how to operate one of our Eagle ripsaws. Mike also has operated the debarker, and Jamie is well versed in running many areas of the production line.

We strive to be a zero waste facility. Here, team member Billy Dockery is stationed at the end of the production line where he identifies usable staves that may have slipped through the automated process. We call it second chance wood. Leftover wood pieces are chipped up and recycled.

Thanks to the Fannin County Development Authority for the awesome video. We do love the hometown vibe of Blue Ridge.
