The powered endless belt (14) of a lower conveyor (12) transports workpieces (16) past a scanning station (18) and then past a slicing station (20), whereat the workpieces are sliced into desired thickness by a powered blade (23). An upper hold-down conveyor (24) includes a powered belt (26) that assists in holding the workpieces stationary and stable as workpieces travel past the slicing station (20). In this regard, the belt is of a compliant construction and is operated at a low enough tension to enable it to substantially conform to the contour of the upper surface of the workpiece, thereby to apply a substantially uniform load about the entire upper surface area of the workpiece.

Selon la présente invention, la courroie sans fin motorisée (14) d'un convoyeur inférieur (12) transporte des pièces (16) vers un poste de balayage (18), puis un poste de coupe (20) où les pièces sont coupées selon l'épaisseur souhaitée par une lame motorisée (23). Un convoyeur supérieur de maintien (24) se compose d'une courroie motorisée (26) qui aide à maintenir les pièces dans un état stationnaire et stables lorsque celles-ci passent dans le poste de coupe (20). Ainsi, la courroie est de construction souple et fonctionne à une tension suffisamment basse pour lui permettre d'épouser sensiblement le contour de la surface supérieur de la pièce, afin d'appliquer une charge sensiblement uniforme sur l'ensemble de la surface supérieure de la pièce.
