What is finger Joint

The joining process of short-sized wood is a combination of end-to-end processing methods, that is, a combination of tapered tapered finger-shaped enamels that are processed to the same pitch and cross-section. Finger joints have many advantages, primarily at a reasonable cost, and can also utilize low grade and short size wood. By trimming the ends, the sides are planed and machined into high-grade end products such as furniture, table tops, and even structural products such as laminated beams and I-beams.

There are two main types of finger joints: vertical and flat connections, or docking. The difference between these two connections is the difference in appearance shape characteristics and the difference in the processing of the workpiece. Vertical finger joints, the wide surface of which is the visible surface of its shape, in contrast to the shape of the flat connection can only be seen from the side of the sheet. Vertical connections are often popular in Europe and are used in the production of structural beams and are used extensively in the construction industry.

According to strict standards, finger joints used in engineering structures should have extremely high tensile strength. Finger joints have the advantage of being stronger than large solid wood pieces. Special applications for finger joints in other areas are also widely used on the surface of various products, mostly value-added products. For example: parts for doors and windows, cabinet parts, floor materials with beautiful surfaces and furniture parts.
