Simple definition of laminated wood: three slats (planks) glued on top of each other constitute a laminated wood prism. This prism (profile) is used in the manufacture of modern laminated wood joinery.

Prism production process (element, profile):

  • The logs are cut, peeled and cut into a rough board.
  • The raw board is hemmed and cut to standard sizes to obtain friezes.
  • Friezes are dried to 8% humidity.

The friezes are cut so that the wooden slats are obtained („boards”).
The lamellae are sorted and if they have knots, the knots are removed.
The slats merge into the teeth resulting in the desired length.
The slats are glued one on top of the other, obtaining laminated wood.
The prism (element, profile) made of laminated wood has superior properties to a monobloc profile due to the fact that it is made up of three or more slats (planks).

Qualities:

  • the bearing capacity is almost doubled;
  • bending due to moisture is much reduced (due to the fact that each lamella has its own bending different from the bending of the neighboring lamella thus as a whole canceling each other out).

Laminated wood prisms can be used for: windows, winter gardens, construction beams, stairs, and shutters.
