CA 2271609

An automated log pre-positioning and turning system including a log manipulating mechanism with a C-shaped positioning unit for capturing, rotating, skewing, or otherwise moving logs. The system may be used to entirely replace antiquated sawmill systems or may be used in part to replace antiquated turning elements with the inventive log manipulating mechanism and its C-shaped positioning unit. The log manipulating mechanism is designed to operate in cooperation with computerized scanning equipment without requiring excessive modifications to do so. With relatively few mechanical parts, the log manipulating mechanism includes both rotational and skewing capabilities to position a log quickly and automatically with both precision and finesse. This provides new and useful pre-positioning, turning, and skewing features that increases sawmill productivity, while effectively decreasing log waste.
