Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif servant à la fabrication de panneaux définis tridimensionnels (34) d'une largeur prédéterminée à partir d'une grume (10) ou d'un bois rond non écorcé. Des coupes longitudinales (28) séparées les unes des autres de la largeur (b) des panneaux (34) sont pratiquées dans la grume (10) en des domaines prédéterminés. Les panneaux (34) sont découpés à partir de ces domaines. En vue de subdiviser sensiblement en totalité la grume (10) en panneaux (34), ces étapes sont répétées au moins une fois en des domaines (32) se rapprochant progressivement de l'intérieur de la grume (10).
