• High speed horizontal joint fingerjointer with feed speeds up to 120 lugs per minute with lugs on 9" centers. Capacities are: block length from 4-1/2" to 35"; block width from 1-1/2" to 8" (-0" + 1/16" adjustable); block thickness from 5/8" to 2" (+/- 1/16"). Outfeed assembled lengths to 20'. System consists of the following elements:

• Shaper section with manual feeding; (2) opposing shapers with transport chain transfers blocks to shapers; both shapers with (2) 15 HP top and bottom scoring/hogging heads allow production of edge profiles while minimizing tear out during hogging and shaper operations. Glue is applied after the 2nd shaper station via the Flankenjet system, ensuring a continuous flow to the profile. 

• Transfer station acts as a buffer belt with semi-automatic feeding to the suction air belt.

• Thread in track transfers individual blocks from the transfer station to (2) synchronous chains by means of a fast running belt. Guiding chains with flexible top pressure elements ensure correct alignment of fingerjointed blocks. 20' long thread in track is driven by (1) 4 HP and (2) 1-1/2 HP motors at 460 FPM.

• Electrically driven power feed attachment consists of (1) pair of 9" dia., (2) 3 HP AC drum motors with feed speeds to 395 FPM.  Top roll presses pneumatically onto the blocks.

• High pressure squeeze press with 4 HP hydraulic power pack and 21-gallon tank. Following the prepress, the 3 HP cutoff saw is activated and the cut-to-length board is pushed into the final press area and held from (4) sides; the required pressing pressure (up to 27,000 lb/ft) is applied. Press includes the automatic cutoff saw, infinite final length adjustment down to 9'-10", pneumatic top pressure elements and lateral guides, hydraulic power pack with adjustable pressure, electronic length measuring to cut jointed boards to various lengths (3 lengths possible). – [Ref.
