Abstract

Veneer panels which are to be joined in a plurality of layers one above the other and one behind the other are assembled and glued to form an endless strand of veneer laminates. In the process, the veneer panels are first fed in through a glue-application machine which applies a layer of glue on a top side of the veneer panels onto a buffer belt. The veneer panels are then transferred from the buffer belt to a horizontally reversing feed belt which forms on a roller table a first veneer assembly comprising a plurality of veneer panels. The first veneer assembly is raised about its front end by an angle .alpha. into an oblique position so that veneer panels of a subsequent veneer assembly can be threaded into the first veneer assembly using the horizontally reversing feed belt. The first and subsequent veneer assemblies are thereby combined into a veneer-panel strand, and transferred to a continuously operating prepress and press.
