Abstract
In production of a decorative board with overlaid wood pieces used for surface covering of various furniture, building materials and car interior decoration, wood pieces supplied from an overhead hopper by gravity are dispersed on a flat feeder by application of vibration and are transferred in a dispersed state onto base boards successively supplied by a transfer conveyor in a horizontal direction. Almost no need for manual operation raises production efficiency and dispersion by mechanical vibration assures high degree of uniformity of patterns on the products. Fully automatic processing enables reproduction of patterns with commerically acceptable fidelity.
