Where a veneer slicer operator can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a veneer slicer operator already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Veneer slicer operators slice lumber into thin sheets to be used as a cover for other materials, such as particle board or fibre board. Veneer slicers may use various machines to obtain different cuts of wood: a rotary lathe to produce cuts peripendicular to the growth rings, a slicing machine to create plank-like cuts, or a half-round lathe which gives the operator the freedom to make a selection of the most interesting cuts.
