The problem in previously known stay log-type veneer slicers in which a large block of wood is directed in an eccentrically rotating manner past a knife consists of the fact that a remaining block that cannot be sliced has to be removed by hand from a girder structure on which the block is mounted. Hence, the downtime for removing the remaining block and mounting a new block of wood is relatively long. The aim of the invention is therefore to create a stay log-type veneer slicer that has a reduced downtime. Said aim is achieved by disposing means for discarding the block of wood () and a device for automatically conveying away the discarded block of wood on the girder structure ().

Veneer slicer

In prior art veneer-slicing machines, the blade is always mounted so that its cutting edge is parallel to the plane of the table, inside of which a wooden beam can be clamped. As a result, it is not possible or only possible with a high degree of complexity, to make adaptations to the shape of the wooden beam, said shape being, for example, conical in some types of wood, or to the course of the grain in order to achieve an optimal sectional image and thus the best possible veneer quality. The inventive veneer-slicing machine should make it possible to make simple adaptations to the shape of the wooden beam or should be able to influence the sectional image. To this end, the tool slide () can be placed at an angle (&#x3b1;) that is slanted with regard to the plane of the table (). This is achieved by the provision of at least one articulated connection that is placed between the supporting structure () and the guide elements (), which are mounted on rails () in a manner that permits them to move back and forth.

Veneer-slicing machine

The invention relates to a veneer slicing machine. The output of prior art veneer slicing machines is limited by virtue of the fact that the slideways quickly heat up at a maximum stroke rate. As a result, the maximum permissible temperature of 120&#xb0; C. is quickly reached thereby making it necessary to shut down the machine in order to permit the slideways to cool. The inventive veneer slicing machine should be able to be used in continuous operation at a maximum stroke rate and thus function without resulting in a loss in quality. To this end, cooling means are arranged on the slideways () and are provided in said slideways () e.g. in the form of borings () through which the coolant circulates whereby enabling heat to be carried away in a well-directed manner.
