ABSTRACT:
This disclosure relates to a cant forming machine wherein logs are cut in advance to the predetermined length of the wood slats and pieces to be formed, after which the logs are automatically moved through a series of saws and molding heads to first cut guide grooves in the lower portion of each log, after which the log is moved onto guides where it is under full control. Following this, necessary cuts are made in the log to define a plurality of cants, followed by a final cutting of the log to separate the plural cants. The machine is adapted to continuously receive cut lengths of logs with there being conveyor means for presenting logs to the machine and a cut-off saw for cutting the logs to the predetermined length. Also, the machine has a reciprocating pusher carried by an endless conveyor chain with the pusher being connected to the conveyor chain in a manner wherein the conveyor chain may slip relative thereto in the event of a jam.
