A sensor is configured to scan the first edge of the plank and determine whether the groove and the substantially planar portion are within a predetermined tolerance. A jointing device is positioned adjacent to the turret, the jointing device includes a joint cutting tool configured to cut at least one groove on the second surface.

A cross-laminated timber processing equipment comprises a longitudinal board loading mechanism, a transverse board loading mechanism, an adhesive spraying mechanism, laying cars, presses, a transfer car, and an unloading car. The longitudinal board loading mechanism lays longitudinal boards on a laying car at an assembly station, and the transverse board loading mechanism lays transverse boards on the laying car. The longitudinal boards and the transverse boards are perpendicularly and alternately laid layer by layer. The adhesive spraying mechanism is provided above the assembly station, and sprays an adhesive on the upper surfaces of assembled boards. The transfer car moves back and forth between a conveying station and an idle press through the assembly station, carries the laying cars and the assembled boards, and feeds the laying cars and the assembled boards into the presses for compaction. The unloading car moves back and forth between a press completing compaction and an unloading station, and conveys an idle laying car to the assembly station. Compared with other international similar equipment, this equipment can implement fully-automatic cross-laminated timber processing and production, and has low apparatus cost, high production capacity, high processing efficiency, and a great leading advantage.

The invention discloses an infinite-arbitrary-length bamboo chip integrated material. The bamboo chip integrated material is formed by a plurality of lengthened bamboo chips which are glued and overlaid; each lengthened bamboo chip is formed by a plurality of bamboo chip units which sequentially and continuously mesh and are butted; sharp teeth and grooves are formed in the two ends in the length direction of the bamboo chip units, wherein the sharp tooth of each bamboo chip unit and the groove of the corresponding bamboo sheet unit are matched to form a meshing butt-joint part, and the meshing butt-joint parts of the adjacent lengthened bamboo chips are arranged in a staggered mode; and each bamboo chip unit has a thickness of 4-12 mm and a width of 15-50 mm. The invention further provides a manufacturing method of the bamboo chip integrated material, comprising the steps of preparation of the bamboo chip units, meshing and butting, hot pressing and gluing and the like. The present invention has the advantages of small connectors, uniform mechanical strength, and applicability for structures materials such as van truck bottom plates.

A method of and system for producing Class-A fire-protected oriented strand board (OSB) sheets. Each Class-A fire-protected OSB sheet has: a core medium layer made of wood pump, binder and/or adhesive materials; a pair of OSB layers bonded to the core medium layer; a clean fire inhibiting chemical (CFIC) coating on the surface of each OSB layer, made from CFIC liquid applied to the surface by dipping the OSB sheet into the CFIC liquid in a dipping tank, allowing shallow surface absorption into the OSB layers and ends of the core medium layer at atmospheric pressure; and a moisture, fire and UV protection coating spray coated over the CFIC coating to provide protection against moisture, fire and UV radiation from Sunlight, which is quickly dried by passing through a drying tunnel on the production line.

In a lumber factory, an automated laminated veneer lumber (LVL) process supported by a lumber production line employing a cross-cutting and rip-sawing stage, a dip-coating stage, a spray-coating stage, a print-marking stage, and a stacking, packaging and wrapping stage. At the dip-coating stage, cross-cut and rip-sawed LVL product is automatically transported and submerged through a dipping reservoir containing clean fire inhibiting chemical (CFIC) liquid, and then wet-stacked and set aside to dry. Once dried, the dip-coated LVL products are returned to the production line and sprayed coated with a moisture, fire and UV protective coating at the spray-coating stage, and then passed through a drying tunnel for quick drying of the spray-coating to produce Class-A fire-protected LVL products. The Class-A fire-protected LVL products are stacked, packaged and wrapped at the stacking, packaging and wrapping stage into a package of Class-A fire-protected LVL products, ready for shipping.
