Apparatus having automated loading 15, nailing 22, and stacking 24 areas for wood components, wall panels or wall components is described. The apparatus includes a control panel 14 that allows automated selection 94 of the type of sub-component to be handled, the speed 98 at which the nailing and stacking operation is executed, the compression rate 100 in which the operation is executed and provides automated feedback 106 of the progress of the operation. A guide track 30, stationary 26 and powered 28 compression members and side conveyer belts 16 that work in conjunction with upper 18 and side 20 rollers allow for positioning, clamping, and movement of the raw material 70 into the nailing stage 22 of the operation. The rollers allow for the nailing process 22 before being moved to the stacking system 24.
