ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for treating edge surfaces of panels, comprises conveyor tables to displace panels in sequence, two of the conveyor tables being configured such that panels are sequentially displaced in longitudinal alignment between the two conveyor tables with a longitudinal edge first. Two other of the conveyor tables are configured such that panels are sequentially displaced in lateral alignment between the two other conveyor tables with a lateral edge first. A first tool is positioned between the two conveyor tables. A second tool is positioned between the two other conveyor tables. Securing devices are associated with the conveyor tables to releasably secure panels in lateral alignment on the two conveyor tables such that the first tool is actuatable to simultaneously treat a longitudinal edge surface of a first and second panel on opposite sides of the first tool on the two conveyor tables, and to releasably secure panels in longitudinal alignment on the two other conveyor tables such that the second tool is actuatable to simultaneously treat a lateral edge surface of a first and second panel on opposite sides of the second tool on the two other conveyor tables.
