Flat Cut
Flat cut veneer is the most common cut used in the wood products industry. This cutting technique creates a cathedral design in the veneer and produces a nice, consistent surface for staining and finishing.
Lengthwise Slicing
This cutting method is done from a board of flat sawn lumber, rather than from a log. As a result of utilizing this technique, a variegated design is created in the veneer.
Plain Slicing
Production of this veneer sees the cuts made parallel to the center of the log. As a result, a raised cathedral design in the veneer is formed by the innermost growth rings.
Half-round Slicing
This option sees the veneer sliced on an arc, parallel to the center of the log. As a result, this cut achieves a
flat cut design.
Rift Cut
Rift cut veneer is popular with people who are looking for a straight grain design. Over the years, this cut has become a favourite among kitchen designers, as it embodies both European and Contemporary aspects.
To achieve this cut, production methods see a log being sliced at a slight angle in order to minimize the irregularities in the wood. As a result, the veneer appears to have a straight grain design. This method is optimal for red and white oak veneer.
Quarter Cut
Quarter cut veneer is popular for projects that require a distinctive and characteristic flare. This flare design is caused by cutting across the medulla ray of a log. The most common application of quarter cut veneer is in mission style furniture.
This production method sees slices made perpendicular to the annual growth rings of a log. As a result, this creates a straight grain design in the veneer.
Rotary Cut
Rotary cut is most commonly used in the production of birch and maple veneers. This cut creates a unique swirl design in the veneer and is popular because of the speed of processing can help reduce the costs attributed to manufacturing.
To achieve this cut, logs are centered on a lathe and turned against a broad cutting knife, set into the log at a slight angle.
