Out of all, have you ever come across the rotary veneer production line? It is a unique method of making some very big logs into small wood sheets, that are used in many things. That wood is used to making furniture, tables and chairs even our floors we walk on as well musical instruments such as pianos & guitars! The diagram below breaks down how the thing works from beginning to end.
The first step to produce veneer for rotary is cutting the log end-to-end so as not allow an individual slice, this referred toola slab from lathe cut. The outer scaling layer i.e. bark, is of absolutely no value in making veneer; A debarker is a specialized machine used to remove the bark. This beast of a machine is essentially like an enormous knife and shaving peak by taking off the bark, right up to the wood part without cutting into it. The log moves through another machine called a lathe which peels off the bark of it. This lathe is essentially a giant machine that spins the log around at high speed and a sharp knife peels of very thin sheets of wood.. Those thin sheets are what we now know as veneer!
The production of rotary veneer needs to be extremely accurate and precise so every small thing counts. Therefore, new technology and easily available advanced tech is used in this industry will help you to get more things easier. For instance, a computer system looks over logs to ensure things are not going haywire. This ensures that it only includes the most excellent logs for veneer. The below picture shows one of the lasers that measure how much a veneer sheet weighs so they can all be exactly the same thickness. Because, if the sheets were not of same dimensions it would have problems getting in to furniture or other products correctly.
It even ensures that rotary veneer production line is fed by a such manner, that each and every sheet of the factory becomes perfect. The machines are ordered in special way that each step is being done properly and efficiently. Other than adjust any splits or flaws in the log just before making of the veneer. Which means that if there is any bark or tough edges, they take care of those first. The next step is inspecting the veneer for quality control, which it has to pass with flying colors. Thus providing a quality check that every single sheet of veneer is perfect each and every time it's made.
The rotary veneer production line is a set of mechanical vegetable teamwork that convert tokens into thin, transparent and beautiful sheets. From a debarker that strips the outer bark from a log,… They then send the log through a rotating lathe where a knife peels off veneer. The next step is for the veneer to move through other machines that cut it as necessary, dry it (we don't want a wet surface!) and grade the quality. And lastly the veneer is then packed up neatly and sorted, so it can be used for creating furniture or flooring — whatever you use a finished sheet of woods.
