METHOD FOR DRYING VENEER AND CORRESPONDING DRYING DEVICE

摘要

Until now, a relative high degree of culling occurs as a result of wrinkling and fissuring in sensitive types of wood when veneer is dried. According to the new method for drying veneer, wrinkling and fissuring is substantially prevented thereby minimizing culls. The drying device makes it possible to substantially automate the implementation of the inventive method. The venee r is fed through the dryer in such a way that the direction of the grain of th e veneer is slanted in relation to the direction of conveyance. The feed devic e in the drying device is embodied in such a way that the veneer is placed in the envisaged slanted position as it is fed to the dryer. Reversal of the slanted position is performed by the removal device. The veneer is dried.
