A method and apparatus for fabricating a decorative sheet or panel by bonding a plurality of veneer sheets to one face of a rigid backing sheet over an intervening layer of an adhesive coating the latter. Stacks of veneers to be adhered to successive backing sheets are held in side-by-side relationship on the movable bottoms of their respective repositories defined by parallel partitions within a rectangular frame. This frame as well as the movable bottoms of the repositories are mounted on a platform which also is moved up and down by first lift means provided therebelow. In operation, the frame is elevated by the first lift means into contact with each backing sheet supported horizontally by an overhead conveyor. Second lift means mounted on the platform is then set in motion to move the stacks of veneers upwardly relative to the frame until the uppermost veneers of the respective stacks are stuck to the lower face of the backing sheet over the layer of adhesive previously coated thereon. Thereafter the remaining stacks of veneers and the frame are successively lowered by the second and the first lift means, respectively. This cycle of operation can be repeated continuously. |
