ABSTRACT:
A device and method of orienting a log in a veneer lathe charger to produce optimum positioning of the log in a veneer lathe when the log is loaded into the lathe by the charger includes a plurality of ultrasonic transducers which are positioned circumferentially and longitudinally about the log periphery. The ultrasonic transducers sense the position of the log and the log is re-oriented, under control of a computer which receives the outputs from the transducers, prior to loading the log into the veneer lathe.
