Abstract: A unified primary flacer mill for the selective reduction of roundwood to bark, bolts for decorative veneer, wood flakes or chips, lumber and timbers for use as such or for subsequent reduction to flat sliced rectangular veneer. The mill consists of two independent systems for producing bark and flakes or chips. Thinnings and other small wood to eight inches in diameter are delivered to one station. Larger roundwood possibly suitable for lumber or timbers is delivered to other stations. Flaking or chipping and surfacing heads replace saws for all outside cuts. Apparatus provides adequate support for the wood during flacing and parting and good operator view of the work for selective breakdown.
