The connection for the outer belt portion is by means of a finger joint.

The members are joined in an end-to-end relationship along a longitudinal direction (L) by means of a finger joint (3).

The invention relates to a jointing device for producing a joint assembly, a push-through jointing method and a push-through joint assembly between a first workpiece (2) and a second workpiece (3).

We also make long details by finger jointing; the only limiting factor is the length of the transportation.

These characteristics make this adhesive system suitable for a number of engineered wood applications such as finger joint, Glulam, l-joist, and LVL.

Robotisation and automation of our production lines and processes / Butt-joining and bonding green wood to obtain longer wood pieces (ABOVE Project)

An investment in a cutting-jointing line will be set up to streamline the existing equipment and allow development on products with higher added value.

With finger jointing the materials are glued together at the factory and transported to the construction site in full length – log length is limited by transportation.

Typical raw material length is 6 meters or less, so to meet our costumers’ wishes, we offer two different types of log lengthening opportunities – finger jointing and dovetail jointing.

Although finger-joining is used in several wood product manufacturing processes including the horizontal joints for glulam manufacture, the term finger-joined lumber applies to dimension lumber.

The Wood Division failed to improve its profitability in the first half of the year, mainly because the timber frame walls activity is still running at a loss and the ramp-up of the cutting-jointing line is still in progress.
