Abstract
A veneer lathe for turning the log by means of a rotary roller which is capable of continuing the cutting operation until the log being cut comes to have a diameter practically the same as the spindle diameter. Said veneer lathe comprises a boring unit, centering unit, a spindle conveying mechanism for conveying the log from the boring unit to the spindle means, rotary drive roller to turn the log and means for guiding the spindles and stopping the log movement. The log is formed with center bores by the boring unit. Through said center bores, the spindles are inserted to prevent the log from deflecting under the pressing force of the rotary roller. Upon completion of the turning operation, the spindles are removed out of the centerbores while the spindle guiding and log stopping means prevents the log from following the spindle removing action.
