Apparatus for slicing fibrous material, in particular, trunk wood

摘要

An apparatus for slicing elongate fibrous material has a slicing device having an axis of rotation about which the slicing device rotates during operation. The slicing device has slicing tools with a blade carrier and a blade unit. The blade units have cutting blade edges that together define a common cutting surface. The elongate fibrous material is fed in slicing cycles in the direction of its longitudinal extension to the blade units. Slicing is carried out parallel to the fiber orientation by realizing a relative movement between the elongate fibrous material and the blade units transverse to the fiber orientation. The slicing tools have an end face with a receptacle extending parallel to the end face. The slicing tools have a cutting element arranged in the receptacle. The cutting element performs a separating cut in a direction transverse to the fiber orientation in the separating plane between two slicing cycles.
