A jig for assembling a cabinet is disclosed. The jig includes a clamp assembly pivotally attached to a base. The clamp assembly includes a first jaw and a second jaw configured to apply a clamping force therebetween. The clamp assembly can pivot between a first position and a first inclined position. In the first position, a front support plate of the clamp assembly is oriented vertically, and in the first inclined position, a first angle less than 90 degrees is formed between the front support plate and a support surface on which the base rests. The clamp assembly may also pivot to a second inclined position at which a second angle less than the first angle is formed between the front support plate and the support surface.

A method for producing a wood sheet that is between 0.6 and 0.8 mm thick, includes covering both surfaces with a matte crystal clear polyester film that is between 70 and 80 micrometres thick joined by thermopressing to the wood sheet. The wood sheet is sanded between the method steps to a thickness ranging from 0.6 to 0.8 mm, a matte polyester film with a thickness ranging from 70 to 80 micrometres is applied, they are then thermopressed at a controlled temperature and speed, and the wood sheet covered with the plastic material film is cold-pressed. The present invention also relates to a translucent wood sheet which allows illumination lamps having unique configurations to be produced.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods and computer program products for optimizing wood panel creation. An exemplary apparatus is configured to receive information related to a customer order; assemble, based at least partially on the received information, a plurality of wooden staves; adhere the plurality of wooden staves to one another such that a ribbon of staves is formed; position the ribbon of staves on a first conveyor belt such that it is transferred to a portion of the device for curing; cure the ribbon of staves using the fourth unit of the production device; resize such that a panel is formed, wherein resizing the ribbon of staves comprises removing an excess portion of the ribbon of staves; and return the excess portion of the ribbon of staves on a second conveyor belt to another unit of the production device.

A system and method for making made-to-order architectural millwork of custom dimensions; including the design of wood joints and a system for deploying them within the overall structural design of individual architectural millwork units, as well as methods for online design and ordering, automated writing of machine code, robotic part preparation, and simplified on-site installation. With the automation and generation of digital code for manufacturing custom architectural components, this method makes the formation of distributed manufacturing centers possible. Through this method and with minimum re-tooling and/or training, these centers are able to produce custom millwork more efficiently and effectively than traditional custom millwork woodshops.

An improved factory method for producing a complete furniture item starting from panels that can be joined together, is described. The method steps are picking up the set of panels divided into N sub-sets from a storage (10) of panels, N>=2, bringing the N sub-sets of panels respectively to N workstations (54, 20 56, 64, 66, 68, 70, 72, 74) operating in tandem, loadinge.g. simultaneouslya subset of panels in each N-th station, and preferably subject them to processing there; transferring the panels of an Nth station to the next Nth station (54, 56, 64, 66, 68, 70), preferably for another processing, transferring all the panels of the set from the last of the N stations to an assembly station (72) and assemble them there to obtain the shell or cabinet.

A workpiece processing system is provided that includes a first carousel rotary conveyor associated with a first plurality of stations through which workpieces are successively rotationally conveyed, a second carousel rotary conveyor associated with a second plurality of stations through which the workpieces are successively rotationally conveyed, and an inter-carousel transport configured to selectively operate in a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the inter-carousel transport is operable to successively transfer the workpieces from the first carousel rotary conveyor to the second carousel rotary conveyor. In the second mode, the inter-carousel transport is operable to successively reorient the workpieces of a selected one of the first carousel rotary conveyor or the second carousel rotary conveyor by approximately 180 degrees of rotation for further successive rotational conveyance of the workpieces through the stations associated with the selected first or second carousel rotary conveyor.
