The present disclosure relates to a method of producing a laminated wood product, comprising providing a plank presenting a pair of parallel major surfaces, a pair of minor surfaces, a pair of end surfaces and a longitudinal direction parallel with said major and minor surfaces and perpendicular to the end surfaces, said plank having a water content of more than 25% by weight, preferably more than 30% by weight, initializing at least one longitudinal crack in the plank, drying said crack initialized plank to a moisture content of less than 20% by weight, and laminating said crack initialized plank by gluing at least one of its major surfaces to a surface of a second member, thus forming the laminated wood product. The disclosure also relates to a laminated wood product, which may be formed according to the method.

The invention relates to a method for operating at least one machining apparatus as well as a machining system with at least one machining apparatus. Such a machining apparatus can be a machining apparatus for machining workpieces, in particular panel-shaped workpieces, which are used, for example, in the furniture and component industry.

A rotary feeder mechanism is provided for a stringer notcher wherein the feeder includes opposing pairs of pusher arms with one pusher arm of each pair being located on opposing sides of a magazine holding a vertically stacked supply of stringers to uniformly move the lowermost stringer onto a work table. The opposing pusher arms are eccentrically mounted on opposite sides of a rotary drive shaft. A control link is connected to each pusher arm to maintain the orientation of the distal ends of the pusher arms in a selected orientation during rotational movement. As one pusher arm moves a stringer onto the work table, the next vertically stacked stringer rests on the top surface of the stringer to be eased onto the bottom of the magazine as the pusher arm retracts below the level of the work table for the opposing pusher arm to then engage the next stringer.

The present application relates to woodworking tools in general and in particular to a woodworking grooving planer. A woodworking grooving planer comprises a planer body, a planer cutter assembly, a planer cutter lifter, an axial locking mechanism and a radial locking mechanism; the grooving planer lift comprises a rotary leadscrew, a lifting slider, a lifting base, a guide rod and a stopper; rotating the rotatory handle can make the lifting slider drive the cutter assembly to move up or down; the axial locking mechanism and the radial locking mechanism can make the rotary screw thread press the lifting slider axially and radially, so that a close thread fit is established between the rotary screw and the lifting slider, thus effectively avoiding the problem of instability and imprecision caused by pitch clearance.

A system and method for producing a rectangular wooden panel with boards extending diagonally at an angle (), where each of the boards has opposite longitudinal sides and transverse sides includes a trimming device for trimming the transverse sides of the boards at an angle (90). The trimmed boards are transported to a position in front a joining station, and the boards are arranged at angle () in relation to a direction of displacement. The boards are then glued on at least the longitudinal side facing a board already located in the joining station, and then inserted into the joining station with a displacement device that includes a plurality of towing trolleys arranged on a coupling bar. The displacement device travels a displacement path in the displacement direction that runs parallel to the orientation of the transverse sides of the boards. The inserted board is pressed and glued to the board already in the joining station. These steps are repeated until a wooden panel of the desired size is achieved. Then, a triangular gusset is made with a cut running perpendicular to the transverse sides at one end of the wooden panel to produce a first right-angled side edge, and this cut-off gusset is then glued at the opposite end of the wooden panel such that a second right-angled side edge is produced. The system includes a controller which controls the cutting, gluing, pressing, joining, and displacement operations.

A device which prepares material for being held in a dovetail style workholding system, such as a dovetail vise. The device uses a number of cutters to produce a dovetail shape in the stock material.
