METHOD FOR FORMING PLURAL BEVEL CUTS USING MULTIPLE CUTTERS

摘要

A method for forming a bevel cut at an end of a wood member is disclosed. A wood member (62) is placed on a support table (42) and a plurality of cutters (3) mounted on and spaced along a shaft (2) extending in parallel to the end of the wood member on the table is moved relative to the table in a direction inclined with respect to the wood member thereby to make a first cutting to form a plurality of bevel cuts. The support table is shifted in the direction parallel to the end of the wood member and a second cutting is made by the relative movement between the cutters and the table. During the first and second cutting, the wood member is pressed against the support table by a pressing member (34) at a position adjacent to the end of the wood member and between any two adjacent cutters.
