ABSTRACT A wood veneer lathe that includes a sensor carried by the nose bar and co-acting with the peeling knife to detect and provide an output signal in response to and proportioned to deviations from a predetermined spacing of the nose bar and knife relative to one another. The sensor is located downstream from the point of contact of the nose bar with the block at a position opposite a flat face of the knife and adjacent the latters cutting edge. A particular veneer lathe is disclosed that includes electrohydraulic linear actuators with feedback control means for adjustably positioning the peeling knife. Signals from the sensor, detecting deviations of the peeling knife from its fixed setting, are analyzed by a computer and the latter controls actuators to make suitable knife position adjustments to control the veneer thickness.
