Abstract
A machine for drying and/or jointing by continuous contact engagement wood veneers fed by being unwound or sectioned, in which shearing forces are minimized and wherein the veneers are restrained and conveyed between facing and adjoiningly juxtaposed active runs of alternating endless chains of heating interarticulated elements pertaining to input and output conveyors, first and second pressure applicators such as slidable weighty elements adjustably pressed against rollers on the chains and operating selectively and respectively at the entrance of the input conveyor and at the exit of the output conveyor, the input conveyor being driven more quickly than the output conveyor, so that each veneer is urged longitudinally against the preceding one.
