摘要
<p>The device (10) has a gripping unit (30) for gripping a log (50) e.g. raw trunk, at two sides (56, 58). The gripping unit is rotatable around an axis (36) parallel to a longitudinal axis (55). The log is provided around a defined angle step. The gripping unit is rotatable around a defined path transverse to the axis (36). The gripping unit is designed as a rotation arm having two side pieces (32, 34) that enclose the log at an angle of 90 degrees. An independent claim is also included for a method for rotating logs.</p>
