ABSTRACT:
An infeed table for delivering pieces of lumber to a planer machine is characterized by separate and independent lateral and longitudinal drive mechanisms to continuously deliver the lumber to the planer at the speed of the planer feedworks without damaging the pieces of lumber. The infeed table includes a frame having a longitudinal linebar connected therewith. A plurality of longitudinally spaced transfer chains laterally transfer pieces of lumber successively against the linebar. A plurality of independently driven press roller assemblies are connected with the frame adjacent the linebar in longitudinally spaced relation for transporting the pieces of lumber in sequence into the planer machine. A control device is connected with the roller assemblies to control the rotational speed thereof to accurately and efficiently transport successive pieces of lumber to the planer machine.
