Methods of Cutting

Apart from veined wood, the structuring growth rings are always located relatively concentric. Would you now slice a log simply lengthways, it would result in very different veneer pictures throughout the parcel, which is not wanted.

Apart from veined wood, the structuring growth rings are always located relatively concentric. Would you now slice a log simply lengthways, it would result in very different veneer pictures throughout the parcel, which is not wanted. Therefore, the log is divided into flitches during preparation, in order receive preferably homogenous veneer pictures throughout the entire log.

These flitches (exception: rotary cutting) are being mechanically or by vacuum suction attached to the slicing bar, which moves parallel – vertically or horizontal – along the fixed knife. On peeling or stay-log machines, the slicing bar rotates around its axis along the tangential carried knife.
