This study deals with how warp affects the cross-sectional shape of planed planks. A total of 20 planks with dry target cross-sectional dimensions of 50×150 mm were planed to 45×145 mm. The rectangularity of five cross sections of every plank was measured before and after planing. The cutting depths were measured in 10 positions in the cross sections, and the angles between the planks and the cutters were calculated. Also, the warp, that is, twist, bow, crook, and cup, was measured before and after planing. All the studied properties pointed in the same direction. In terms of both rectangularity and angles of cut, the problems were larger in the top and butt ends of the investigated planks than in the intermediate parts, and the main reason for deviations from the desired result after planing was twist.
