This invention relates to a novel wood chip singulation system for in-process monitoring and control. More particularly, this invention pertains to an apparatus and method for the selection and presentation to a detection device of a representa- tive sample of successive individual wood chips of a desired size profile from a conveyor carrying a single, or multiple layer bulk of various sized wood chips. A wood chip singulation system for in-process monitoring and control comprising: (a) a bulk wood chip conveyor; (b) a screener which separates wood chips conveyed to the screener by the conveyor according to wood chip size; (c) a second conveyor which conveys some of the chips from the screener to a sensor array; (d) a sensor array which senses wood chips on the second conveyor and isolates individual chips; (e) a sweeper which, upon demand of the sensor array, diverts unwanted wood chips off the second conveyor; (f) a wood chip sorter which upon command from the sensor array moves a single chip into position for analysis by a wood chip detector; and (g) a detector which analyzes physical characteristics of the single wood chip.
