| 3Choosing the slicing and jointing techniquesThe appearance of the veneer sheet is determined by the way the wood is sliced and how the pieces are joined together. The ways that veneer can be cut and details of how the various strips of veneer can then be jointed to produce the final sheet are shown below. The drawings give you a good idea of the end result. This helps you decide what your panel will finally look like and the best choice for your application.
This is the standard method. The various veneer strips are joined together in mirror-image pairs. This means that
each strip is the reflection of the previous one. This technique lets you
see perfectly how the log was handled.
This technique is often chosen if the veneer needs to be
stained. Staining means that no colour differences can be seen between the different veneer
strips on a panel.
This has all the advantages of a slip matched sheet of veneer. In
addition, the boards do not all have to be the same way up. This makes it unbelievably easy for the customer to
work with a veneered panel.
This jointing technique is only used for burr wood. The
small pieces of burr wood veneer are glued together
symmetrically.
Mixmatched
Decospan has developed its own patented machine for the mixmatched or planked technique. The veneers are jointed together randomly to give the final sheet the appearance of solid wood without disadvantages such as warping as the humidity varies.
Decospan can process veneers of various thicknesses in this way (0.6mm, 1mm, 1.5mm and 2mm). The thicker veneers are used when additional structuring needs to be applied.
Mirror Matched
This technique is primarily used for tall panels with a continuous patterning. This type of jointing can also be used for long reception desks or sliding doors.

Ways of SlicingThe description of the faces of veneered boards e.g. crown or quarter cut refers to the front face only; the reverse on two-sided boards may be either.
Quarter Cut
Produced by cutting at right angles to the growth rings producing a
straight grained effect.
Crown Cut
Produced by cutting a log in half and then slicing parallel to its centre to produce the crown or
heart effect.
Rotary Cut
The log is rotated around its axis against a knife as if unrolling a
carpet. This produces a continuous sheet with sometimes very wild
characteristics.
Burrs
A natural defect on the outside of the tree and/or its root. Characteristically there are small knots grouped closely
together giving a highly decorative appearance. The veneer is mainly
rotary cut.
Whatever you choose: Real wood is always unique and gives your project that little bit extra.
