An apparatus for automatically aligning logs to be sawn in a sawing machine in a position for yielding an optimum sawing result, comprising an arrangement for carrying the log to be aligned in a predetermined vertical longitudinal plane through the sawing machine, and a device for turning the log. The apparatus further comprises sensing members, which are connected to an evaluation which, control unit and by external sensing the log by the sensing members, records changes of the log center in relation to the longitudinal plane during one revolution of the log. Thereafter, the unit on the basis of information received determines the optimum alignment position and permits the turning device to turn the log into this position.
