Abstract:
1. An apparatus for adjustably profiling a cant relative to the longitudinal centreline of the cant, the apparatus comprising: a first and a second shaft, said first and said second shaft rotatably mounted to a first frame and a second frame, respectively; a first and a second pair of laterally spaced apart profile cutting devices, said first and said second pair of laterally spaced apart profile cutting devices slidably mounted to said first shaft and said second shaft, respectively; selectively actuable first and second pair of lateral linear positioners mounted to said first and said second frame, respectively, each lateral linear positioner of each of said first and said second pairs of lateral linear positioners selectively actuable to independently or in unison laterally displace each profile cutting device of each of said first and said second pairs of laterally spaced apart profile cutting devices, respectively, relative to the longitudinal centreline of the cant when said first and said second pairs of lateral linear positioners are actuated; first and second vertical linear positioners mounted to said first and said second frame, respectively, said first and said second vertical linear positioners selectively vertically displacing, respectively, said first and second frames and corresponding said first and said second pairs of laterally spaced apart profile cutting devices, respectively, relative to the longitudinal centreline of the cant when said first and said second vertical linear positioners are actuated.
