ABSTRACT:
A vacuum assisted stick and lath placer has a magazine for holding a stack of elongate members for transverse placement onto an upper surface of a tiered lumber package of longitudinally aligned tiers of lumber. A selectively actuable shear positioned beneath the magazine is selectively horizontally actuable so as to push a bottom-most elongate member from beneath the stack of elongate members into a pickup position along a travel path of a selectively telescoping vacuum pickup. The selectively telescoping vacuum pickup is selectively extendable between a retracted position, a first extended position corresponding to the pickup position, and a second extended position corresponding to the upper surface of the tiered lumber package.
