Abstract:
A veneer reeling apparatus comprising: a connection conveyor that is provided with a pulse generator; a detector that senses a veneer sheet after drying transported on the connection conveyor; a distance setter that sets a distance with a number of pulses from the detector to a winding guide member that is located downstream from the detector; a drive controller that controls driving of the winding guide member; a take-up reel that is rotated following rotation of the winding guide member by being kept in contact with an upper surface of the winding guide member; and a pulse counter that counts a number of pulses of the pulse generator, wherein when a veneer sheet in transportation on the connection conveyor is sensed by the detector, driving of the winding guide member is stopped in response to an instruction from the drive controller and the pulse counter starts to count a number of pulses of the pulse generator, and when a predetermined number of pulses set by the distance setter corresponding to the set distance agrees with a number of pulses counted by the pulse counter, the winding guide member is driven to wind a veneer sheet on the take-up reel.
