Provided is an improved lumber edger having a cross cut saw to cross cut lumber into two or more separate pieces to increase the available amount or value of boards, and a method of using the improved lumber edger.

Lumber edger and method of edge cutting lumber

A lumber edger and method of edging lumber using a positioning system having a plurality fetcher fingers driven by a non-hydraulic drive.

Lumber edger and method of edging lumber

Provided is a dual lumber stacker assembly having two stackers constructed to remove lumber from a conveyor and stack the lumber. The arms are moved forward and aft by associated crank drives. The arms are moved upwards and downwards by associated cam drives. Also provided is a method stacking lumber using the dual lumber stacker.

Dual lumber stacker and method of stacking lumber

Provided are a system and method for cutting boards into two board pieces, even ending one of the board pieces at a first side while travelling transversely on a conveyor and even ending the other board piece at a second side of the conveyor.

System and method for double even ending lumber

A transfer mechanism that transfers boards from a first conveyor onto a second conveyor having lugs using a stop, a cammed wheel for lifting boards over the stop, and a programmable computer controller for controlling the cammed wheel independent of the speed of the first and second conveyors.

High speed board feeder

Provided is a method of protecting a drag chain for a lumber mill and a drag chain having a chain guard and a lug guard. The chain guard and lug guard each only require use of a single weld washer for mounting.

Provided is a printer for printing stamps on boards and a method of printing stamps on boards. The printer is capable of printing multiple types of stamps simultaneously on boards.

Lumber printer

A guide arm for a gang sawmill is provided adjacent to an inlet of a gang saw and is movable about a pivot pin depending on the actual curvature of a cant to adjust (continuously or fixed) the position of an incoming cant to maximize the yield of usable boards produced by the gang saw by moving the cant relative to the saw as a conveyor feeds the cant through the gang saw.

Variable guide for a gang saw

Provided is a positioning fence for use in lumber sawmills that facilitates automated positioning of lumber for cutting and a method of positioning lumber for cutting. A continuous moving track loop has a plurality of paddles laterally positionable across the width of the track. Electromagnets are used to control the position of the paddles and, thus, the position of lumber being transported by the paddles. Also provided are uses of the positioning fence to position lumber for cutting.
